Oprah Winfrey has revealed that she has no regrets about not having children of her own.
The 63-year-old media mogul opened up toGood Housekeeping UKwhile talking about her Leadership Academy for Girls.
“When people were pressuring me to get married and have children, I knew I was not going to be a person that ever regretted not having them because I feel like I am a mother to the world’s children,” she said in the April issue ofthe magazine.
“Love knows no boundaries,” she continued.
“It doesn’t matter if a child came from your womb or if you found that person at age 1, 10 or 20. If the love is real, the caring is pure and it comes from a good space, it works.”
The TV personality admitted that she didn’t think she would have been a good mother.
“For me [the Leadership Academy] was perfect, because I didn’t want babies,” she said. “I don’t have the patience.”
AsMamamiapreviously reported, in 2015 Oprah revealed that she had named the baby boy she lost when she was just 14.
“So I have named him, I had a little boy named Canaan.I did have a son. And I named him Canaan because Canaan means new land, new life,” she said.
The boy died a week after his premature birth.
