According to People magazine:

The half-sister Oprah Winfrey never knew she had has been revealed to the world, and now the two siblings are getting to know each other.

“We’re taking it slow,” Winfrey said of Patricia (whose last name has not been revealed) on Tuesday’s episode of The Gayle King Show. “I think it’s about building a relationship one conversation – one experience – at a time.”

One important connection the two women share is their mother, Vernita Lee, who gave Patricia up for adoption.

For Winfrey, there seems to be no downside to the sudden addition to her family.

“She coming into the family at this time has been a great peace offering, a great symbol of peace-making in this family,” Winfrey said. “I would say I see her as a gift.”
