A tearful Oprah Winfrey begged parents to forgive her for an alleged abuse scandal at her girls’ school in South Africa.
The school was hit two weeks ago with allegations that one of the matrons fondled a girl and physically abused other students.
The school’s principal – indentified only as Dr Mzimane – and at least one other matron were put on administrative leave following the charges.
“I’ve disappointed you. I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry,” Oprah told parents at an emergency meeting, South Africa’s top news Web site reported yesterday.
