Who is Oprah Winfrey’s ‘spiritual partner’ of nearly four decades, Stedman Graham? The media billionaire met her beau at a charity event in 1986, but they never married or had kids – here’s why
- Oprah Winfrey is one of the richest entertainment moguls out there, boasting a net worth of US$3 billion in 2024 – but who’s her partner who’s been by her side since 1986?
