Ozzy, her 43-year husband, passed away “surrounded by love,” according to Sharon Osbourne on Tuesday after battling Parkinson’s, a condition that affects the central nervous system.
A fiery throwback clip of Sharon Osbourne protecting her husband Ozzy is going viral following the rock icon’s death.
Fans have praised Sharon’s loyalty as, in the clip, the mum of three hits back at Megan Hauserman, then a contestant on Rock of Love: Charm School, who had insulted Ozzy. Megan had said: “The only thing you’ve managed to do as a celebrity is to watch your husband’s brain turn into a vegetable.”
But Sharon turned to the audience and said: “I feel so sorry for her,” before standing up, calmly taking a sip from her cup — and then hurling the rest of the drink in Megan’s face. The explosive exchange happened during the 2008 series of Sharon’s show, which saw contestants compete to develop proper etiquette in order to win $100,000 (£73,000).
Shortly after the showdown with Sharon, who was a household name in the US and UK music and television industries, Megan, a model and actress, was eliminated in episode four of her series. She remarked to her audience, “They can f*** with me… but not my family.

As tensions grew on the VH1 program, security scrambled on the stage. Sharon argued that the reality star had taken the risk and had broken their TV deal by sueing, while Megan filed a lawsuit against her for battery and distress. In 2011, the case settled peacefully for a six-figure sum.
Megan, 43, has since appeared on her own illustrious, short-lived dating program, Megan Wants a Millionaire. With only three episodes of the first and final seasons airing in 2009, it was canceled.
This week, Megan received criticism on social media after the Rock of Love: Charm School clip reappear online. Another user praised Sharon’s loyalty, saying, “She really, REALLY loved her husband, not something she used to do. Another wrote, “Ozzy was so blessed to have someone as kind as she was.”
She was the queen, according to another fan, who was also a metal king. Never criticize the wealthy. “GO Sharon,” is another phrase in another comment. When it comes to her man, she doesn’t play.
And music manager Sharon, 72, expressed her heartbreak at Ozzy’s passing this week. The TV personality, who has been a judge on The X Factor, said in a family statement: “It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”
