RUMOR ALERT: Oprah Leaves Millions to Dogs

Oprah Winfrey is leaving $30 million to her dogs in her will.

The billionaire businesswoman has four beloved pet pooches and has already set up a trust fund to take care of them should anything happen to her.

A source told Australia’s Woman’s Day magazine:

Oprah has a menagerie of animals and she wants them to be pampered for the rest of their lives if she were to die first. She has four dogs, plus various other pets, so she rewrote her will to include millions for their care. Oprah’s a billionaire, so $30 million is not a lot of money if you look at her entire net worth.

The chat show star has two Cocker Spaniels, Sophie and Solomon, and two Golden Retrievers. A third Golden Retriever, Gracie, tragically choked to death in May this year.

Oprah has no children and has previously referred to her dogs as her babies.

True? We’re not sure, does it seem likely? Not to us which is why we’re labeling this a rumor alert!
