(AP) -- An emotional Oprah Winfrey says that one of the most impressive things about a Milwaukee woman's discovery that the two are half-sisters is that the woman never tried to take advantage of her or sell her story.

On "The Oprah Winfrey Show" that will air Monday, Winfrey announced that she was related to a woman identified only as Patricia.

She says Patricia had known the two were related since 2007.

Even though she continually tried to reach Winfrey, she never went to the media or otherwise publicized her discovery.

Patricia appeared on the show and explained that she felt it was important that she talk to Winfrey herself and not let someone else tell her.
