According to the big business publication, estimated by the media mogul, Oprah Winfrey has made a staggering $1.5 billion in her career as a talk show host, newscaster, publisher and actress. But, being the pillar of strength to millions of Americans, she could not resist being back-stabbed by her own half-sister, Patricia Lloyd, who sold the tale of Oprah’s lost child to US tabloid National Enquirer for $19,000 worth richer in 1990.

Ashamed from keeping her teen pregnancy for years, had finally reached to a point appearing in public confessing she was sexually abused from age 10 to 14 resulting to teenage promiscuity and becoming pregnant. In 1985, she first told viewers on her show that a 19-year-old cousin, first of the three family members, sexually molest her when she was 9. Oprah revealed that she did not really know who the father was of her child. The baby was born prematurely, died shortly after birth. Even a strong-willed and bursting with confidence woman had kept her secret behind scenes to a relatively point of being afraid loosing her burgeoning career. Was she even worth to ask sympathy for what she claims she went through to her stunned fans? Or, does she deserve this public scrutiny after Shawn Hornbeck’s related interview?

Writing for O magazine about her shame, since nobody had treated her differently, Oprah believed that for 20 years, she had been expecting wild reactions but soon realized that the secret out was liberating and learning that holding shame was the greatest burden of all.
