I know this is old thread but this was in Huffington post in summer 2014:
That was 11 years ago. "Oprah: Where Are They Now?" recently followed up with Megan to see what had happened after the show.
Today, the Baltimore native is living in North Carolina and acknowledges that she wasn't in a good place during her "Oprah Show" appearance. "I was really, really, really confused at the time," Megan says.
When she originally returned to Baltimore, Megan's life went downhill.
"I started using cocaine, I was strung out on drugs -- bad. I was just doing anything to kill myself, honestly," she says. "I didn't know how to love anybody or to depend on people because I never had anyone stable enough in my life to actually show me that kind of love and compassion."
Megan had given up, and even ended up back in jail. "I just lost all respect for myself," she says.
Then, everything changed when Megan got pregnant. She gave birth to a daughter and moved to North Carolina in an effort to start anew. "I decided to change some of my ways because I didn't want the system raising my child," she says.
Filled with a new sense of hope and ambition, Megan got her life together, pursuing an education and focusing on her family.
"I am halfway through my Associates in Arts degree. I have three lovely kids," she says. "I'm happy now."
