Gayle captioned the photo, “Two TV people from competing networks walk on to a plane and to the surprise of them both, they’re seated right next to each other for over four hours. How did it go? Speaking for @jessewatters here: A good time was had by all! Hi, Jesse…saving your number!”
Fans in her comments had mixed reactions. If you don’t remember, Trump told Gayle her career was over this summer. Watters is often defending the Trump administration on Fox News.
One Instagram comment read, “I give Gayle so much credit for reminding us it’s ok to agree to disagree and still get along- it’s ok to be KIND to and about someone who has opposing political views without getting attacked for it. I like them both and love to see this…” and another said, “Civility in public! How refreshing! We could certainly use more of that in Congress.”
Others, however, criticized Gayle, with messages including, “This is really not cute at all,” “He is one of the reasons the country is on fire right now,” and “This guy peddles so much dangerous sh-t and you are happy to be sitting next to him??”
Amid high tensions in the country, Watters also revealed he was not invited to his moms for 2024 Thanksgiving after the election.
