Whoopi Goldberg Is Content Being Single

Whoppi Goldberg is quite content with her single life.

The 'Sister Act' star insists she doesn't need a relationship and is in fact very happy with the one commitment in her life, her cat.

Speaking of her relationship status during an appearance on the Tamron Hall Show, Whoopi explained: "People keep saying, you know, 'Well, you'll find somebody.' But ... I'm not looking for anyone. I'm very happy. I don't want to live with anybody. I have a cat. I have a 20-year-old cat who is attitudinal. And so he will leave little treats for anybody that's not me in the bed. I know what he will do if I bring somebody in.

"I don't like relationships because there's a commitment. When you make a commitment to someone else, it's a commitment to ask their opinion and listen and work it out with them. I don't want to do that. I don't. I don't want to share money. I know it's terrible, but I don't want to do it. I know, for me, it doesn't work."

The actress appears to have had a change of heart after being married three times and told of how she believed the unions were expected of her.

"Look, people expect you to have a boyfriend," she previously commented. "They expect you to get married. So I kept trying to do that, but I didn't want to share information with somebody else. I didn't want anybody asking me why I was doing what I was doing, or to have to make the other person feel better. But if you're in a relationship, you have to do those things, and it took me a while to figure out that I didn't want to. I'd be thinking, why don't I feel the thing that I'm supposed to? Then one day I thought: I don't have to do this. I don't have to conform. I tried marriage, and it wasn't for me. You can't be in a marriage because everybody's expecting you to."

The 64 year-old was married to Alvin Martin between 1973 and 1979, David Claessen between 1986 and 1988 and Lyle Trachtenberg between 1994 and 1995.
