After the sudden death of her mother in 2010, Whoopi Goldberg and her older brother secretly scattered her remains at Disneyland’s “It’s a Small World” attraction. “We didn’t get caught, but I confessed it later to a park employee,” she confides in her new memoir. “They weren’t surprised, and they certainly were not happy about it.”
The View co-host and Oscar winner’s relationship with her mother, Emma, and brother, Clyde, whom she lost in 2015, are the centerpiece of her new memoir, Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and Me, set to be released on May 7. “I’m not raving angry, but I resent the fact that my mom and Clyde aren’t here anymore,” says the star, 68, who admits that from her earliest days, her mother and brother were her anchors. Recognizing the combined loss “was the first time I felt like an adult, totally on my own,” she says.
