Oprah Winfrey flashes sliver of stomach in purple patterned suit after admitting she uses weight-loss drug

Oprah Winfrey shows off her 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 bump while strutting her stuff at a screening for her upcoming film, “The Color Purple.”

A day before, the multi-hyphenate finally switched to diet pills to lose weight.

Walking the purple carpet at the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, D.C., Winfrey grinned as she showed off her slim figure in a purple patterned suit.

She paired sleek trousers and a fitted blazer with a matching vest underneath, revealing a small portion of her midsection.

The former talk show host, 69, appeared to be in high spirits as she continued her parade of purple outfits, starting with a sparkling long-sleeved Dolce & Gabbana dress on December 4, a simple dress at the movie premiere last week and a short dress. dress. sparkling blazer with lavender heels, among other promotional appearances.

She even showed her Instagram followers how to make a purple mocktail while at home in her megamansion.

The outing marks Winfrey’s first since publicly admitting that her recent body transformation was due in part to medical assistance.

“I had an awareness of [weight-loss] medications, but felt I had to prove I had the willpower to do it. I now no longer feel that way,” she told People, adding that she was “actually recommending it to people long before [she] was on it [herself].”

Though the Weight Watchers ambassador chose not to name the specific drug she takes, she explained, “I now use it as I feel I need it, as a tool to manage not yo-yoing.

“The fact that there’s a medically approved prescription for managing weight and staying healthier, in my lifetime, feels like relief, like redemption, like a gift — and not something to hide behind and once again be ridiculed for.”

Winfrey — who had her “aha” moment in July and is now seven pounds away from her goal weight of 160 pounds — said she’s “absolutely done with the shaming” from others and herself.

Winfrey’s ever-fluctuating weight has been a topic of discussion since her career began.

“It was a public sport to make fun of me for 25 years,” she told the magazine, recalling one specifically hurtful headline that referred to her as “Dumpy, Frumpy and Downright Lumpy.”
