Gayle King's Personal Life
Gayle King is currently single and does not have any man in her life. However, she was previously married to her long-term boyfriend William Bumpus. The pair took their wedding vows in 1982 at an intimate ceremony. They first met in 1981 when Gayle switched cities and moved to Connecticut from Kansas City.
The couple was together for 11 years, divorced in 1993. Gayle filed for divorce after she caught her then-husband cheating on her. In fact, she caught him redhanded sleeping with another woman.
The former spouses share two children, a daughter named Kirby Bumpus, and a son named Will Bumpus. They decided to co-parent their kids even though they were no longer together. Meanwhile, both the kids, who are full-fledged adults by now, are in Gayle's custody.
Aftermath Of The Divorce
During a questionnaire with Vanity Fair, Gayle was asked a question of what living person she most despises. The answer is all anyone ever needed to know about how she felt about her failed marriage. She said:
"I’m not a huge fan of the woman who I caught naked with my now ex-husband on June 24, 1990, at 9:16 p.m., but I don’t remember the details."
After what William did, he was inevitably reluctant to open up about his cheating allegations and so he did. He said:
"I have been haunted with this life-altering choice. Though I have dealt with this privately, I publicly apologize for the major transgression that dramatically changed all of our lives."
