Oprah stepped in and took charge when her father, Vernon Winfrey’s barber shop was facing foreclosure. She purchased the business and in the process angered a few family members.
One in particular Vernon’s wife who filed for divorce earlier this week, feels betrayed and locked out of the family business. She feels as though Oprah is shutting her out and that she could have paid for the debt.
She opened up to Fox News saying the following, “I know whats going on, and I’m tired of it, I have had enough, there is no reason for it to go into foreclosure like this” A rep for Oprah said this: “Oprah purchased the property that was in foreclosure, Vernon Winfrey has been a fixture in the community for decades and will continue to manage the business from a day to day basis”
