Oprah Winfrey in an interview with The Hollywood Reporters explained that she does not regret a life without her own children.
According to the first African-American female billionaire "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 who, at age 14 gave birth to a baby who only lived for a number of weeks - said her attitude towards having more children has essentially been the same since her childhood best friend Gayle King, who's still her best friend today, had very different hopes and dreams.
"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 explained. "While she was having those kind of daydreams, I was having daydreams about how I could be Martin Luther King."
Winfrey also said she does have plans to slow down her career.
