Oprah Winfrey was ambushed by a man claiming to be her long lost 'son' as she left the New York studios
* She offered him a job as her 'personal bodyguard' before asking his mother Eva if she could adopt him.
* Oprah would send gifts to the boy with notes addressed: 'To my son Calvin, I love you.'
* Oprah paid for Mitchell to attend the private Christian boarding school, The Piney Woods School, in Mississippi until he dropped out at age 17.
* Calvin, who later became suicidal after she 'abandoned' him, said: 'I was young. I made a dumb decision, and Oprah wouldn’t forgive me. I feel like what she did was wrong'
"Why did you leave me? Why did you leave me?" I'm still empty. I'm still searching. I don't have closure to this. I just don't understand'
