Oprah Winfrey revealed on her show yesterday about finding out this past Thanksgiving that when she was 9 years old her mother had gotten pregnant, hid the pregnancy and secretly put the baby up for adoption...
Oprah's sister discovered Vernita Winfrey was her birth mother in 2007 and began reaching out to her. Vernita rejected Patricia's requests to unite. She still does.
Eventually an email from Patricia made its way past the hundreds of other "I'm your long lost relative letters" Oprah receives each week and after realizing Patricia had known the truth since 2007 and hadn't sold her out to the tabloids, Oprah decided she wanted to meet this woman whether she turned out to be her sister or not.
