    Default Oprah's baby

    So it was on the news, One of Oprah's relatives outted her biggest secret.
    That when she was 14, she was very promiscious, and got pregnant. The baby was born prematurly, and died.
    Apparently, in this months issue of O magazine, Oprah did an interview and explained how hurt she was that her family sold her biggest secret to the media, but she's glad the secret is out so she can begin healing.
    I didnt feel like searching online for the whole story...But I thought it was interesting...

    I dont get it, I heard that years ago. Im sure shes even mentioned it on her show, Im thinking when Roseanne was interviewed like years ago. Not the promiscuous bit though, but that she was raped by a family member.

    This was after the molestations. The pregnancy resulted from promiscuous behavior afterwards. The baby was born premature and died.

    I'll look up the story...

    HOLLYWOOD - Oprah Winfrey has stunned fans by revealing she lost a child when she was a young teenager.


    The media mogul and talk-show host tells all in the new issue of her namesake magazine, Oprah, admitting she was almost a mom at 14, after years of sexual abuse and "resulting promiscuity."

    Best friend and Oprah editor Gayle King says, "She didn't really know who the father was of this child... and hid the pregnancy for a very long time."

    Oprah reveals the baby, which was born prematurely, died shortly after birth.

    King adds, "It was a secret that she carried for many years because she was very ashamed."

    The media mogul felt she had to reveal all about her secret when an unnamed family member sold the story of Oprah's lost child to tabloid the National Enquirer.
    King reveals her friend was so upset about the family betrayal, she spent a weekend sobbing in bed..

    She recalls, "It was a weekend where she just really had a breakdown."

    But, in the article in the new Oprah, Winfrey insists the betrayal was a blessing in disguise.

    She writes, "Having the secret out was liberating. Not until then could I begin the repair work on my spirit for the sexual abuse and damage done to me as a young girl."

    I htough thtis was common knowledge.

    She has openly said on her show that her early life, being molested by family members, made her desperate for any kind of affection, and wa spromiscuous. She also had one or two abortions.

    I think the part that was sold to the media was the fact that she did become pregnant, and had a child, although he died. Apparently, she hid the pregnancy until the very end.
    I dont think the molestations, the promiscuity was the shocker,but the fact that she had a baby.
    But..I dont follow Oprah, and I don't keep up with celebrity happenings. I just happened on that story, and passed it along, so I do not know the whole story.

    She had talked about it not that long ago, too. It was the episode about the girl that was in prison for killing her baby.

    Although I have my own little "beef" (like Oprah would care, lol) with her, you're right. She rocks, and it doesn't matter at all.

    Its a juicy tidbit, but she's still "The Woman"

    She had another premature baby in college as well.

    But this one wasn't spoken about

    the other was when she was 19 in college etc.
