The idea of motherhood has never appealed to globally famous billionaire Oprah Winfrey.

The media behemoth once again covers The Hollywood Reporter, and within, the “Power 100” honoree revealed that she never wanted to be a mother as her best friend Gayle King did, and that she doesn’t feel she would have made a good one.

“Gayle [now a mother of two] was the kind of kid who, in seventh grade Home Ec class, was writing down her name and the names of her children,” Winfrey recounted. “While she was having those kind of daydreams, I was having daydreams about how I could be Martin Luther King.”

The following is what Oprah said to the outlet: “If I had kids, my kids would hate me. They would have ended up on the equivalent of the Oprah show talking about me; because something [in my life] would have had to suffer and it would’ve probably been them.”

Winfrey’s school in South Africa, which she founded in 2007, cost more than $100 million to build. Despite being embroiled in a crisis over sexual assault allegations, it currently has a 100% graduation record. She continues to teach at the institution in a few courses.

One of the first things Winfrey does every morning, according to THR, is exchange emails with the OWLAG kids. “I’m responding to everything from ‘I’m feeling lost’ to ‘I need advice about a boy,'” she stated.

The busy OWN chief also visits the school twice a year, and she recently hosted a Thanksgiving meal for previous pupils who are now attending institutions in the United States at her Montecito home.

Winfrey anchored “The Oprah Winfrey Show” for 25 seasons until ending it in May 2011 to launch OWN, her own cable television network. Her one regret about quitting the program, she told THR’s Lacey Rose, was the timing. She would have done it before starting her own network, but she claims she didn’t have anything else to give the format.

“I knew it was time to go when [my producers] called me in and said, ‘I know, we could take the audience to outer space.'”
