This Actor Revealed Betty White’s Secret Breakfast Routine — And It’s Quite The Surprise

Few who know the iconic “Golden Girls” theme song lyric “Thank you for being a friend” would’ve guessed that, for Betty White, “friend” might include a sweet treat and a stiff drink.

During an interview on Tuesday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” actor Meghann Fahy revealed a little-known tidbit about White during their time working together.

“Did you get to know Betty?” Kimmel asked the actor after revealing White and Fahy worked together on her first film, the 2011 Hallmark movie “The Lost Valentine.”

“A little bit,” Fahy recalled. “We crossed paths a bit, and she loved drinking vodka on the ice and eating chocolate cake for breakfast, like a real, true legend.”

This left Kimmel surprised — prompting him to comment that “she lived a very long time,” as he pressed for more details on this newfound revelation.

“Was she drinking the vodka with the cake?” he asked.

“The White Lotus” actor jokingly replied, “Yes,” but quickly amended her statement and made it clear that White was a true professional and wasn’t indulging while at work.

Fahy went on to reflect on how privileged she felt to have worked alongside White at such a young age, confessing that she “learned that you can be as incredible as that and still be so human.”

The actor joked that her lessons from White began with her indulgences.

“I was about 20. I thought, ‘If that’s working for her, it’s definitely going to work for me,’” Fahy said.
