Life hasn’t always been easy and smooth for one of America’s most famous broadcast journalists and TV hosts.

The 55-year-old host said opening up about her bulimia ordeal was not easy, but she had to do it for the sake of supporters around the world. She revealed that she first started having the disorder when she was turned down by the college she most wanted to attend.
