“I wish she were real, but she isn’t. From being pals with Weinstein to abandoning and destroying Russell Simmons’ victims, she is about supporting a sick power structure for personal gain, she is as fake as they come.”

She later went on to share another post, tagging Oprah as an “evil creep”.

Winfrey has previously spoken up about her close friendship with Weinstein, who is currently serving a 23-year prison sentence for two rape convictions.

At the time, Oprah claimed not to know anything about the allegations made against Weinstein, but admitted that she aware that he was a “bully”.

Oprah said: “What I knew about Harvey was that Harvey was a bully and that if Harvey is on the phone, you didn’t want to take the call because you are going to get bullied in some way.”

Weinstein has been found guilty on two convictions: third degree rape and criminal sexual act in the first degree. He also currently faces additional charges of sexual assault in a Los Angeles court, for which he has pleaded not guilty.

Music mogul Russell Simmons has been accused of more than a dozen sexual misconducts since 2017. In some instances, he has admitted “inappropriate conduct”, but has disputed the claims of non-consensual sexual interactions.

Explaining her decision to step down, Oprah said in a statement: “There is more work to be done on the film to illuminate the full scope of what the victims endured, and it has become clear that the filmmakers and I are not aligned in that creative vision.”

She also told The Hollywood Reporter about her decision to discontinue with the project, adding: “I want it to be known that I unequivocally believe and support the women. Their stories deserve to be told and heard.”
