Here’s a hint: her name has a kitchen utensil in it.

It shouldn’t be especially surprising that Oprah Winfry has a lot of friends. Honestly, who wouldn’t want to be friends with a jolly lady who unconditionally loves humanity and gives really awesome hugs? Not me, I’d love an Oprah hug. You know who else loves Oprah hugs? Reese Witherspoon, and she gets them at the source.

Oprah and Reese were casual friends for a long time. You work in the entertainment industry, you’re obviously going to run into a few familiar faces on a regular basis. It wasn’t until they began work together on Disney’s A Wrinkle in Time that a true, close relationship began to bud.

Oprah said that the two of them had a “great camaraderie from the very first day” when they were working on A Wrinkle in Time together.

Reese said that Oprah “just really deeply cares about humanity as a whole.”

Even after production on the film ended, the two kept in close contact, and have been spotted around the country palling around and hugging it out.
