Why I remain unmarried – Opray Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey, popular American talk show host, actress, producer, and philanthropist, best known for her talk show “The Oprah Winfrey Show”, in her latest shoot for the September 2017 issue of Vogue Magazine, revealed the reason she has chosen to remain unmarried.

She said ‘Nobody believes it, but it’s true. The only time I brought it up was when I said to Stedman, ‘What would have happened if we had actually gotten married?’ And the answer is: ‘We wouldn’t be together.’

‘We would not have stayed together, because marriage requires a different way of being in this world. His interpretation of what it means to be a husband and what it would mean for me to be a wife would have been pretty traditional, and I would not have been able to fit into that.’

Opray also reveals why she brought down the curtains on her popular talk show programme:

‘I started thinking about the times: where we were, would I be able to take it digital. People were moving into ‘I want to be able to watch it when I want to watch it,’ and the four o’clock hour was no longer must-see television.

‘I could feel that happening with the audience. Their behaviors were shifting, and the media world was changing. I had written something in my journals years before: ‘I never want to stay too long in the ring so I end up punch-drunk.’ I didn’t want people saying, ‘She shoulda quit that show three years ago!’’
