Oprah Winfrey was in Charlotte Wednesday, interviewing John Edwards’ former mistress, and she spoke exclusively to NewsChannel 36.
Rielle Hunter lives near Charlotte’s Dilworth neighborhood.
Reporter Beth Shayne was there as Oprah left Hunter’s home and the talk show host took a few moments to speak about the interview.
“This was a great interview,” Oprah said. “We talked for about two and a half hours. She was genuine, I thought, and authentic. I think we’ll see a side of her that, certainly, I’ve never known. I enjoyed the conversation. … I had no resistance from Rielle Hunter on any questions whatsoever. She was really forthcoming. She was very open. She was very candid, and I would have to say, I felt, pretty truthful.”
Oprah said she arrived in Charlotte Wednesday and she enjoyed her time in the Queen City.
