Debra Winans couldn't be happier that Oprah Winfrey banned her ex-husband Bebe from the "O" show until his domestic violence case plays out ... and now Debra's giving Oprah a nice pat on the back over her decision.
Debra gave the following statement to TMZ:
"It further demonstrates the fact that Oprah continues to be a strong voice against domestic violence and that she's willing to take the steps necessary to defend the defenseless."
It all started when Bebe -- who was charged with assaulting Debra back in '08 -- was allowed to pimp out his new album on "Oprah" last month.
Debra told us she was "upset" at Oprah about Bebe's appearance -- especially after O took a stand against domestic violence earlier this year by refusing to let Chris Brown on her show.

Oprah Winfrey has finally decided alleged woman-abuser BeBe Winans isn't welcome on her show anymore -- at least for now -- after the famous gospel singer's ex-wife raised hell and implied Oprah was a moral hypocrite.
It's all because Oprah took a hard moral stance on Chris Brown, refusing to have the singer on her show after Chris beat Rihanna.
But last Friday, when O allowed BeBe onto the show, the woman he's accused of attacking told TMZ she was "hurt' by Oprah's decision because their case is still pending. Now, it seems Oprah got the message.
TMZ spoke with a rep from Oprah's show, who told us "BeBe will not be appearing on the 'Oprah' show until his legal matters are resolved in court."
Winans was charged with domestic assault last winter, he's due back in court in January.

Oprah took a hard stand on Chris Brown, but just a few days ago the talk show host allowed another famous alleged woman-abuser on her show -- and now the victim says she feels betrayed.
The man in question is gospel singer BeBe Winans -- who is accused of shoving his ex-wife Debra Winans to the ground in front of their kids back in February. BeBe was on "Oprah" on Friday to pimp out his new gospel CD -- his domestic violence charge is pending until another court hearing next year.
Debra tells TMZ she's "hurt by Oprah's decision to have Bebe on the show" -- especially after she refused to have Chris Brown on her show in the wake of the Rihanna beating.
Calls to Oprah's people were not returned.
