About the Episode

In Oprah's exclusive interview with Raven-Symoné, she asks the "That's So Raven" star what everyone wants to know about her very personal Tweet in support of gay marriage. Now all grown-up, Raven talks openly about her own sexuality and what it was like being in the public eye for so long as a child actress, beginning at age three on "The Cosby Show." Next up, "General Hospital" star, Maurice Benard, in a rare update, shares his ongoing battle with bipolar disorder and offers his best advice for others struggling with the mental illness. His wife, three daughters and son visit him on set as he talks about his long-running success on the popular soap opera where he's played Sonny Corinthos for 21 years. Then, the youngest classical opera singer, Jackie Evancho, now 14 years old, explains how her life suddenly changed overnight after making it to the finale on "America's Got Talent." She gives a private look inside her life offstage and her hopes for the future. Plus, revisit one of the most heart-wrenching stories from "The Oprah Winfrey Show" when seven years ago an Ohio mother left her daughter in a car. Today, she shares how she is coping with her fatal mistake. Finally, Jenna Von Oy from "Blossom" talks about why she left Hollywood and her lasting friendship with former costar Mayim Bialik.
