SHARON OSBOURNE about OZZY: “he's always been inappropriate with women”

24-03-2024

In a new interview with MirrorSharon Osbourne spoke about her five-decade relationship with Ozzy Osbourne, saying: “No matter how much bad behavior or who’s wrong or right in a certain situation, I love him. He’s the only man other than my dad that I’ve ever loved. I just adore him. And I knew what he was before I married him. But in my youth, being naïve, I thought, ‘I can change Ozzy. He won’t drink when he’s with me. I’ll make him a nice home and nest and we’ll be happy ever after.’ But that’s not real life. I knew what he was. I knew he had addictions and I took it on. We can’t go for a wee without each other. It’s ridiculous.”

She added: “He’s always been inappropriate with women. We have a nurse at home, quite a large Russian lady, and she bent over him and he goes, ‘Tell me, did you breastfeed your kids?’ And I’m like, ‘You cannot say those things now. The world today is different. You cannot talk to a woman like that. You can get into trouble.’ He goes, ‘But for what?’ There’s no filter at all. He’s got Tourette’s with the truth. It just comes out.”

In 2020, Ozzy said that he was “terrified” Sharon would leave him after she learned of his extramarital affairs eight years ago.

After Ozzy‘s affair with celebrity hairstylist Michelle Pugh was made public in May 2016, he underwent therapy for sex addiction. Sharon and Ozzy later reconciled and they even renewed their vows.

Asked in an interview with “Good Morning Britain” if he was amazed he and Sharon were still together, Ozzy replied: “I am. I’ve been a bad boy at times.”

Sharon added: “It’s like a Shakespearean play, our love story. Ozzy‘s has been a right old (expletive) with women.”

Pressed about whether he feared Sharon would leave him the last time he was caught cheating, Ozzy said: “Oh, absolutely. I was terrified.”

Asked if he is addicted to sex, Ozzy said: “I think it’s another fix. If you’re a junkie, like I was, anything that alters your mind, you’ve gotta find it. I didn’t love any of these people. I’ve learned a lesson.”

As for how close she came to kicking Ozzy out, Sharon said: “I was just really broken in every sense.

“I said to Ozzy, ‘If you ever do this to me again, I’m gonna cut your hair off or I’m gonna cut all your clothes.'”

Ozzy chimed in: “I wish I hadn’t done this stupid thing that I did, and that’s the truth, because you never know what you had until you’ve lost it. And I thought I’d lost it, big time.”

Ozzy’s last album Patient Number 9 was written by OzzyWattRobert Trujillo (METALLICA), Chad Smith (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS) and Ali Tamposi and features a riveting solo from legendary guitarist Jeff Beck
