Oscar-winner Mo’Nique’s fractured relationship with her estranged family is more damaged than ever after the star’s older brother appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show this week to admit that he repeatedly assaulted the star sexually when she was between the ages of 7 and 11.
Snitches tell RadarOnline.com that Mo’Nique was livid after tuning into the interview, and is frustrated with her brother, Gerald, for his half-truths about the abuse she suffered The Queen of Talk — who the Precious star accuses of not being “sympathetic enough” to her ordeal.
A tipser claims: “Mo’Nique was particularly upset that Gerald lied to Oprah that he molested her while she was sleeping because she was wide awake and scared of him. Also, she is angry that he did not get any help or enter a rehab and she does not trust him around children.”
“Oprah asked her to appear on her show again for another interview but at this point she has declined the invitation. If anything it has made the situation worse between Mo’Nique and her family and she doesn’t know if she will ever speak to them again now.”
On The View Thursday, Barbara said that Gerald contacted her in February after Mo’Nique discussed the molestation on her Oscar Special. Walters said she declined the interview, sensing that Gerald’s desire to repair his relationship with Mo’Nique may be financially motivated.
