How are they estranged? And did Oprah let her die in poverty?

I don't think they were ever estranged. It's just that Oprah's grandmother mostly raised her in WI and then she got sent down south to be raised by her dad. It wasn't your ideal mother/daughter relationship.

I think they got a bit closer in the 90s.

Her mom seemed to be close with her grandchildren. I think there was a relationship with Oprah as well. I'm quite sure she didn't die in poverty.

I'm surprised that she lived until age 83. She was obese for a long time.

This is the woman who made her daughter live with a misspelled name. It all worked out in the end, so may she rest in peace.

Was this woman that caused Oprah to shout "Negroes in the house!" when he mom and others visited?

They made have reached a truce, but they did not get along. So much so that she had to live with her strict father.

Oprah said her mom once told her she was switchin', like twitching her ass too much when she walked.

O wasn't close enough to anyone enough to report that her relatives were molesting her.

Not estranged, but not close

I wonder if it's harder to lose a parent that you had a difficult relationship with? Hopefully she had made peace with her.

We’ll deal with this after dinner. Gayle, a leg or a thigh?

Oprah has one of the nicest asses I have ever seen, no joke.

Gayle was with her at the time and Gayle has a superb as too.

You could set a beer can on that shelf, rock on Gayle King.
