| | |  First J.K. Rowling interview photos & quotes from The Oprah Winfrey Show
The Oprah Winfrey Show official site has now updated with the reveal that the talk show host will be interviewing J.K. Rowling from Scotland; the episode will air this Friday, October 1 on ABC and local networks. Oprah.com has released eight new promos from the interview, taking place in Rowling's hometown of Edinburgh; those can be found in our galleries. Quote:
Oprah says it's one of the most fascinating interviews she's ever done. Meet the billionaire mom behind the Harry Potter empire, J.K. Rowling.
TUNE in on OCTOBER 1, 2010 to watch the show!
UPDATE: The first bits of information about the interview, in which Jo spoke about her depression after her divorce from a Portuguese reporter, are online now. Quote:
The first self-made billionaire author in history” opens up about “depression, her biggest regrets, and the love of her life”. She rarely gives interviews, but two years ago told a student newspaper the end of her first marriage to Jorge Arantes left her suicidal.
Confessing she went to her GP with serious depression, she said: “We’re talking suicidal thoughts here, we’re not talking about, ‘I’m a little bit miserable’.”
She said she probably ended counselling sessions too early, adding “I went through a really rough time and I am quite proud that I got out of that.”
We will have the footage as soon as it is made available online. Check here to see when the programme will air in your local area.  | |

I wonder... is that JKR's home? I don't think so, but it's a beautiful set, room, or whatever it is.

It's nice to see that Oprah interviewed Ms. Rowling at her house instead of the studio in New York. It gives off a home-y feeling.

First off, Jo looks beautiful. I do love the set, or whatever the background is. It isn't her house though is it?
This will definitely be an interesting interview. It's sad to know she had to face so many stuggles to get where she is today, but she did make it and that's what makes her so amazing.

This looks amazing! I can't wait. It's so sad about how depressed Jo became though. Glad she's all better now  | |
