The diet plan comes from Beyonce recently partnering with a company called 22 Days Nutrition to promote her belief in a vegan diet as a form of weight loss and overall health.

Bey previously sung the praises of a non-animal based diet and credited it for keeping her in shape on tour. 

Gayle's weight gain could be due to having had to stay off her feet following an accident in Maui, Hawaii over New Year's.

She suffered a serious ankle sprain while headed to the gym and spent part of New Year's Eve at a hospital in Hawaii with Oprah while being treated.

Oprah invited Gayle and her family to ring in the New Year at her Maui ranch but ended staying at the hospital for most of the celebration. 

Gayle had just celebrated her milestone 60th birthday days earlier on December 28 alongside her family at Oprah's Maui ranch.

Oprah and her pal have shared a long-lasting friendship since 1976, with Gayle making numerous appearances on Oprah's beloved daytime talk show during it's Emmy-winning run.

In an interview with O Magazine in 2006, the TV legend gushed about her best friend: 'Gayle is more excited about my success than I am. It makes her genuinely happy. We've been friends since I was making $22,000 and she was making $12,000. We've made this journey together.'

She later added: 'If there's somebody she doesn't like, that will get my attention because she's truly everybody's friend - far friendlier than I am. I would not call myself a friendly person.'
