Gayle King described returning home unannounced after a trip to Washington, DC, when her flight was canceled. She traveled back with her young children, Kirby and William Jr., and noticed the home alarm was set, which felt unusual because her ex-husband typically did not set it. When she arrived, her ex-husband came out of the room wearing a towel and told her she could not come in. He said there was someone in their room, and King initially did not understand what he meant. She searched the house and found her best friend cowering behind a door in a towel.
"“I didn't even have time to call and say, 'I'm coming home,'” she recalled. “We got to the airport, got in the car, came home, and the alarm was set, which I thought, 'That's strange because you're here by yourself. You're a big ass grown man. He never sets the alarm.'”"
"“And next thing I know, he comes flying out of the room and he's got a towel on. And he goes, 'You can't come in.' What do you mean I can't? I can't come in? What are you talking about?”"
"“At this point, Bumpus told King that there was 'someone' in their room, however she admits that she was initially 'oblivious' about what he was trying to tell her. 'I go, 'Someone like who?'” she said. “I mean, I was so oblivious.'”"
"“I start searching the house because I didn't believe him. I get down and there they are. Or, there she is, cowering behind the door in my towel. It was a nice bath sheet!” she went on."
