Oprah's Response To Alleged Abuse At Girls' School


We've waited to report about the alleged abuse charges against staffers at Oprah's girls school in South Africa because we wanted to hear what she had to say.

According to Us Magazine, Oprah was emotional on Sunday when she spoke to the parents of the girls saying, "I've disappointed you. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry." The parents offered comfort by saying that they don't blame her and it's not her fault.

Oprah gave the parents all her contacts so they could reach her at anytime. The principal and one other staffer have been put on leave. Oprah "has also hired her own investigators, in addition to the South African police and the Family Violence, Child Protection and Sexual Offenses Unit who are on the case."

I feel so bad for the victims and ache for Oprah. She was "Doing Some Good" and then something as horrific as abuse happens to these young girls. Of course, our hearts and prayers go out to all that were affected.
