Sharon Osbourne, the well-known TV personality and former co-host of The Talk, did not hold back her opinions when discussing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on Celebrity Big Brother.
Osbourne, currently a temporary resident on the show, labeled the Sussexes as grifters and deceivers who exploit their titles for personal gain and recognition.
In a candid exchange with her former X Factor colleague Lewis Walsh and Kate Middleton’s uncle Gary Goldsmith, Osbourne criticized Harry and Meghan’s controversial Netflix deal, their headline-making interview with Oprah, and their purported declining popularity among the public.
Expressing her frustration with the couple’s perceived constant complaints and refusal to take responsibility for their circumstances, Osbourne accused them of playing the victim card and shifting blame onto others.
She highlighted what she saw as hypocrisy in their advocacy for environmental and human rights causes while indulging in lavish lifestyles involving private jet travel and luxurious accommodations.
According to Osbourne, Harry and Meghan exploit their royal titles to amass wealth and fame without fulfilling the associated duties and obligations.
Questioning the integrity and truthfulness of Harry and Meghan, Osbourne asserted that they manipulate facts and levy unfounded accusations against the royal family and the media.
Dismissing their allegations of racism, isolation, and lack of support, she suggested that the couple aimed to tarnish and dismantle the monarchy.
Osbourne expressed sympathy for Queen Elizabeth II, whom she lauded as an exceptional individual devoted to her nation and its citizens.
Osbourne’s remarks ignited a spirited debate among her fellow housemates, with some defending Harry and Meghan while others aligned with her viewpoint.
The conversation generated significant interest and feedback from viewers, who took to social media platforms to voice their perspectives.
While some commended Osbourne for her candor and boldness, others condemned her for being impolite and resentful, accusing her of envy and hypocrisy and recalling her own past controversies.
Known for her outspoken and contentious viewpoints, Osbourne had clashed with Harry and Meghan previously on The Talk, where she supported Piers Morgan’s criticisms of the couple and accused them of disseminating falsehoods and causing harm to the Queen.
She openly admitted to not harboring favorable feelings toward Meghan.
A prominent figure in the entertainment industry, Osbourne has held roles as a music manager, reality TV personality, talk show host, and talent show judge.
She is married to the iconic musician Ozzy Osbourne and is the mother of Kelly, Jack, and Amy Osbourne.
Following her departure from The Talk amidst allegations of discriminatory behavior and harassment, Osbourne has made a comeback to television.
Participating in a diverse and star-studded lineup on Celebrity Big Brother, Osbourne shares the stage with luminaries from various entertainment domains, including Donatella Versace, John Legend, Annie Lennox, Helen Hunt, and Chrissy Teigen.
The live-streamed show on YouTube promises audiences a season brimming with suspense, drama, and amusement.
