Kelsey Grammer Opens Up to Oprah Winfrey About His Divorce from 'RHOBH' Star Camille Grammer
Aug. 25 2012, Published 1:00 p.m. ET
Boss star (but forever known to fans as Frasier Crane) Kelsey Grammer is the latest celeb to sit down with Oprah Winfrey for an in-depth interview on Oprah's Next Chapter. The episode doesn't air until Sunday, but judging from the sneak peek below, we'll say it seems there is no topic to touchy for Kelsey.

You already knew your marriage was over, it had already gone on too long, according to you, because it was over when it started and it was a facade. But you lacked the courage to come home and say something," Oprah said.
“Yeah, I did,” Kelsey answered. “And I did believe that I owed something to that person, that I owed fame."
It's not the first time Kelsey has broached the subject — in in October of 2011, he told the Australian morning show Sunrise that Camille’s role on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was his “parting gift” to her. As the first season aired, viewers and critics alike found Camille beyond snobby and insufferable, and it may have actually helped Kelsey, who admitted to having an extramarital affair with his now-wife, Kayte Walsh, look less like the bad guy in the marriage.

"She had given up so much to just endure this horrible life she had with me,” he said sarcastically.
It should be noted that season 2, viewers got a very dialed-back version of Camille, who was no longer at the center of the drama. Only time will tell what version of Camille will show up for season 3.
This episode of Oprah's Next Chapter airs Sunday at 9 p.m. on OWN.
