Last month, when the Democratic National Convention cameras cut to Teresa Woorman as Oprah made a dig at JD Vance’s “childless cat ladies” reference—an internet icon was born. And it just so happened that Woorman, a member of the Maryland House of Delegates, is indeed a “childless cat lady.” Woorman has since embraced the moniker and used the attention to speak out against Vance, and now Oprah herself has also apparently sent her the ultimate “childless cat lady” gift basket for being a good sport about the viral moment. “Feeling so blessed and humbled!” wrote Woorman on X. “Thank you, @Oprah, for this stunning flower arrangement and basket of cat toys for my cats! @OprahDaily,” she wrote. “After going viral as the ‘childless cat lady’ during the @DemConvention! I am more motivated than ever to keep pushing for the change we need. I’m proud to support @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz, two leaders who will champion our values and drive our country forward.” She added, “Let’s keep the momentum going and get them elected this November!”
