Barbara Walters was a trailblazer in journalism, known for her compelling interviews and groundbreaking reporting. But behind the camera, she led a life filled with complexities and nuances that many are unaware of. We start by exploring her romantic relationships, including her affair with U.S. Senator Edward Brooke, which she kept a secret for decades. New rumors also surface about a possible affair with comedian Richard Pryor, adding another layer of intrigue to her already captivating life story.
We then turn to her memoir, "Audition," where Walters opens up about her difficult upbringing and the behind-the-scenes drama on "The View." From her challenging relationship with her parents and sister to the ethical dilemmas she faced with co-host Star Jones, Walters' memoir is a treasure trove of revelations.
But that's not all. We also look at the lesser-known aspects of her life, such as her meticulous preparation for interviews, her philanthropic efforts, and her love for the arts. Walters was not just a journalist; she was a complex individual with a multifaceted life. She faced private struggles too, including the challenges of balancing a high-profile career with motherhood.
Finally, we discuss her poignant last words, recently revealed in an excerpt from her forthcoming biography. These words serve as a fitting epitaph for a woman who shattered glass ceilings and lived life on her own terms. Join us as we uncover the secrets and triumphs that shaped the woman who shaped television news.

[@duffbaker9554]

If she had had any idea of what the View had evolved into during her final years, she would have been mortified.

[@glennlrw]

The video snippet she had in the first year or years of The View about women from different backgrounds and viewpoints...now all must be of one view. If they dare go beyond that, they are put back in their place. I am not sure if she would have been aware of how different unless she was actually sitting there as they chide anyone different than them. It is different when you hear about something than when you are sitting in the middle of it and experience it real time.

[@robertjames6640]

A great interviewer with a life like most of us. Some bumps, some smooth glides. She made her mark.

[@carolinejohnson9165]

She was not innocent friend of someone who has a list of people going to an island

[@ArtByHazel]

She was amazing and a human being who has flaws like most of us.

Beautiful words, thank you for your message for Barbara. We miss her.

I remember the journalist, Barbara Walters, and she was very professional at that career. Her personal life is just that....personal.

[@FactsVerse]

Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?

[@oncebefore3671]

Her personal was as you said - personal - she just didn't give others the same privilege - no one I look up to

[@michellesmith4570]

True, however, Whitney Houston was, still is the most amazing singer, I'd ever heard, performed countless concerts, music videos, sold millions upon millions of albums and yet Houstons personal life was very exploited, by journalists such as Barbara Walters. Dolly Parton, also a great performer etc yet her personal life was exploited by the media, by journalists such as Walters and without discussing the personal lives of these celebrities and so on, Walters as well as other journalists would have had much of an interview with anyone they interviewed yet because they're journalists, while responsible journalism these days is few and far in between, why are they able to make their fortunes, fame, off the backs, the personal lives through the struggles and triumphs of all they exploit but these journalists or whomever, deserves their privacy. How on earth is that even remotely fair? I've always had respect for Barbara Walters and a few other but the door swings both ways.

[@rachellewis8738]

She was a great interviewer and while she kept her subject on track during the interview she did it smoothly as if they were in charge. Great method. Loved it when she brought a tear even for the most stoic. And I agree her personal life was just that… personal.

[@rachellewis8738]

@@michellesmith4570unfortunately the public demands all the dirty details. I never felt Walters exploited anyone. She dug deep. Although I do hate questions that start with, “Do recall what feelings you had when ….. “ and of course that was often when the tears come. That I do not like in any interview.

[@themister3865]

I think that Barbara once said that Clint Eastwood made a romantic pass at her, which she declined, but she later regretted. Am I recalling this story correctly?

[@FactsVerse]

Very intriguing info, thanks for sharing!

In jimmy Fallon show she says Everything youtube. She regrets endlesly. Is so charming. The flirt is on one of the barbara walters Specials, year 82, in youtube too.

[@donalddube3145]

She was a journalist back when journalists still pretended to be objective.

[@leesashriber5097]

She was a class act. Her interviews were captavating. She could get anybody talking. I always like her Oscar specials and the depth she could pull out of the stars. Thank you😊

I remember Barbara Walters she was on live with Regis and Kathie Lee she was they were interviewing her but she was so funny

[@williamhill7312]

I really think Walters talking about her affair with Senator Brooke was tasteless and reflected her self centered personality; Senator Brooke has kids, relatives, hello! There are people hurt when you run your mouth! My prayers for the Senator's family.

[@maryoleary2037]

Barbara was no doubt a good journalist and a trail blazer in the media. However, she had a mean streak, which would have made it difficult to be her friend. The interview that she did with a young Dolly Parton, was so nasty.

[@suzannefaust2007]

Barbara Walters being Barbara Walters and Dolly Parton being Dolly Parton. Two fabulous Women! Two fabulous Winners! Fabulous! ❤️

[@maryoleary2037]

@@suzannefaust2007 Well, yes, Barbara and Dolly were being their true selves. But I still feel that Barbara was extremely condescending and rude ,towards Dolly and put her background, every chance she got. Dolly graciously stood up for herself without once putting Barbara down.

[@rp8069]

A newsman would never be reported on like this.....

[@maryirene123]

Agreed. Also I would find this report more credible coming from Lester Holt as depicted in the thumbnail, but alas not the video itself.

[@suemcknight9051]

Interesting woman. She managed to live a double standard - - probing piercingly into others lives (past & present), but, kept her own life “off limits”.

She lived well. ❤

[@nyc1929]

John Warner, Us Senator from Virginia was her Boyfriend too, in the 70s and Then the all 90's, he was the Elizabeth Taylor 6th hubby, they dated before he met Liz and back together after her separation from AdelsonI think Warner was the Love of her life, he proposed her twice, but she doesnt Want a life in WDC, with active politician, in 1998 the rumours of their wedd was on media and even in the view she dennied, he visite her in the view studio on 1999, but Saddly she declined his proposal. No regrets, she said. Love her ❤ Rip Queen

[@BonnieHaynes-gg4nk]

Warner was always looking for wives who were political assets. His firstcwife was the daughter of John Getty

[@deborahlangnese7645]

Such a smart intelligent informed talented woman. I think it’s great she dated different people. Who cares. That’s why you should never judge a book about its cover. It’s what’s inside that’s important maybe people wouldn’t be so apt to try to judge people by politics religion and take people with a grain of salt. Nobody is perfect. If we were all blind nobody could judge anybody any More for their looks. I loved her laugh

It's not a big deal if one doesn't see anything wrong with adultery. I know it doesn't matter to you because they are both "dead", but would it matter to you if they were both alive ?

[@carolchristiansen635]

The most interesting relationship in her life would be her relationship with her child.

[@marishamayer204]

But obviously, her relationship with her child wasn't interesting enough to write a tell-all memoir about. But, her admitted and unremorseful affair with the very married Sen. Edward Brooke WAS. Her daughter was not the focal point of her book, her affair(s) were. It's what SHE wanted, her fans wanted and the public wanted. Her daughter battled alcohol and drug addiction and Walters stated many times she wished she'd have focused more on being a mother than on her career.

[@BonnieHaynes-gg4nk]

Well..her daughter never used her last name at school. And she always said her mother was teacher. No funeral either.

[@janejohnstone5795]

She was a lefty ..

[@marishamayer204]

I pointed this out last year when Walters died. A so-called "feminist icon", she betrayed the feminist "sisterhood" by unapologetically having a secret and decades long affair with a married man. She in turn, disrespected another woman by doing so - Sen. Brooke's WIFE. She wanted a happy marriage, but was an adulteress who was also thrice divorced, miscarried and died in near seclusion, suffering from dementia. Never mess with Karma.

[@carolchristiansen635]

Well, the lady was 93 years old. And she’s dead. So any affairs that she had can’t be proven. Because if people she had the affair would be dead now, too. But the joy of smearing, her name must be delightful.

[@marishamayer204]

It's not "smearing" if she admitted to having an affair. And she DID admit about having one with Sen. Edward Brooke, a married father. It may not be "proven" she had an affair with Pryor, but the affair with Brooke was. She kept a tight lip on her stepping out on her own husbands, so it can't be "proven" whether or not she was married/cheated on her husband during her affair with the Senator - but she had been labeled an adulteress in her previous marriages.
