Why I Am Still Unmarried – Oprah Winfrey Reveals

By Farouk Mohammed

World famous media guru, Oprah Winfrey, in her latest shoot for the September 2017 issue of Vogue Magazine, opened up about the reason she never wanted to get married to her boyfriend of 31 years, Stedman Graham.

The 63-year-old talk show host 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. Live life on your own terms.”
