Oprah Winfrey’s mother is being sued by a high-end Wisconsin boutique for allegedly running up a $156,000 tab and refusing to make her monthly payments.
The clothing store Valentina claims Vernita Lee owes the money in purchases and interest as of July 1st and has failed to make the minimum monthly payment of $2,000.
Store attorney Joseph Niebler Sr. says the store attempted to resolve the matter with Lee before filing the lawsuit in Waukesha County Circuit Court, reports the Associated Press.
