Oprah Publishes Diary Excerpts In O Magazine

Oprah Winfrey is sharing her personal insights on some of her most important life events in the April edition of her magazine.


The 57-year-old will share five pages from her own hand-written diaries covering events such as her first date through to her experiences on the set of the film The Color Purple, according to reports from USA Today.

The extracts appear in the April edition of O, The Oprah Magazine and contains an extract from a 16-year-old Winfrey written in 1970.
The Mississippi-born TV star, then in her teens, wrote about her first date and explained the turmoil she felt deciding whether or not she should attend. 

‘Anthony asked me yesterday to go with him today. I answered yes. My only regret is my parents. Maybe I shouldn't have said yes but I wanted to, and my want overpowered theirs...I hated to go against my parents but Anthony is so perfect (almost). I couldn't say no.’
As well as providing extracts from her own personal journals Winfrey also provides some context to the extracts.
