In a recent revelation on the UK reality show Celebrity Big Brother, Sharon Osbourne claimed that her husband, legendary rock star Ozzy Osbourne, was “stoned on every episode” of their former reality show The Osbournes. The pioneering MTV show ran for four seasons from 2002 to 2005 and helped to launch the careers of their children Kelly and Jack. Sharon, who is currently a contestant on Celebrity Big Brother, made the comments while discussing the family’s previous fly-on-the-wall series. She also revealed that Ozzy has never seen the show and has no interest in watching it, despite his constant state of intoxication during filming.

It is worth noting that the Osbournes have continued to remain in the public eye since the conclusion of their reality show.

Nevertheless, her openness about both the positive and negative aspects of her family’s life and career continues to make her a compelling public figure in the UK and beyond
