Oprah Winfrey has revealed she considered killing herself when she got pregnant as a teenager.
The talk show host confessed she even drank detergent in a bid to harm herself or the baby as she tried to hide the pregnancy from her family. Winfrey was 14 when she discovered she was expecting but later lost the baby. She feels the death was a "second chance" for her as she believes her father would have disowned her if he had found out.
Winfrey said in an interview with Piers Morgan for CNN.
"Getting pregnant was a result of bad choices, not having boundaries, sexual abuse from the time I was nine, ten, 11, 12 and 13,"
"I had no connection to that baby. I felt nothing but relief because I felt before that baby was born I was going to have to kill myself.
"I did silly things like drinking detergent, but really I was crying for help."
