While she’s usually busy doing philanthropic events, Oprah Winfrey will have to defend herself in a court of law later this month.

The media mogul is being sued by the former headmistress of her girls’ school in South Africa for making defamatory remarks about her during a sex abuse scandal in 2007.Judge Eduardo Robreno is ordering that Winfrey answer for herself against the allegations made by Nomvuho Mzamane. Oprah had previously said that she “lost confidence” in Mzamane and was “cleaning house from top to bottom.”

Robreno announced, “The implication that [Mzamane] was aware of abuse by the dorm parents and did not react accordingly is capable of defamatory meaning as it ascribes conduct which would render her unfit for her profession as an educator.”Photo Credit: Wenn.com
