Billionaire business mogul, talk show legend, and actress, Oprah
Winfrey,59, says she is not cut out for marriage. She has been dating Stedman
Graham, 62, for the past 27 years.
When asked if she would leave
earth as a “never-married” woman, Oprah made her feelings very clear. “Yes,”
she told Access Hollywood. “Yeah, I think that’s my final answer.”
Oprah Winfrey has revealed why
she will never, ever marry her longtime partner Stedman — despite Tina Turner
demanding she walk down the aisle. Oprah and Tina have been
friends for years, with Oprah attending the singer’s wedding back in July.
Tina exchanged vows with
German music producer Erwin Bach at Lake Zurich, Switzerland. “I think that it’s interesting
that you would ask it because I thought about it again at Tina Turner’s
wedding,” Oprah revealed. “Because Tina was like,
‘Oprah, you need to do this. You need to do it.’ I was just thinking, ‘Well,
OK, would things really be different?’ And no, I don’t think so.”
Oprah admits if she and
Stedman had got married, they probably wouldn’t have lasted. According to
Oprah, her relationship with Stedman is so unusual it wouldn’t have fit within
the confines of such a union.
“If you ever interviewed him,
he would tell you that had we married, we would not be together today,” Oprah
said of Stedman. “Because he’s a traditional man and this is a very
untraditional relationship.”
Oprah goes on to explain that
she couldn’t be a wife because the word holds responsibilities she doesn’t feel
capable of handling.
“I think it’s acceptable as a
relationship, but if I had the title ‘wife,’ I think there would be other
expectations for what a wife is and what a wife does. First of all, you’ve got
to come home sometimes,” Oprah laughed.
