Sharon Osbourne reveals she gave husband Ozzy sleeping pills to discover his affairs

She said she was a "broken woman"

Sharon Osbourne has revealed she once gave her husband Ozzy extra sleeping pills to get him to admit to having an affair.

The TV star – who has been married to the rocker since 1982 – said she wanted to find out more about her husband infidelity.

Sharon, 66, explained that she put “an extra two” pills in his drink and “asked him everything, and everything came out”.

In an interview with The Sun, Sharon said: “I was a broken woman. He sent me an email that was meant for one of his women.

“Then he took his sleeping pills. I put an extra two in his drink … and asked him everything, and everything came out. He would have never told me the truth, ever. He was ashamed, afraid.

“I knew how long. I knew who it was. I knew what he was thinking and then, you know, you leave.”

Sharon claimed that Ozzy, 69, told her “it was over with this woman” and she believed him, however, six months later she discovered “it wasn’t and there were others”.

Sharon and Ozzy split after it emerged he’d been having an affair with hairstylist Michelle Pugh.

And although they reunited just four months later and renewed their wedding vows, Sharon – who has kids Aimee, 35, Kelly, 34, and Jack, 32, with Ozzy – is still dealing with trust issues.

Sharon added to The Sun that she doesn’t “trust him as far as I can throw him” and said “nothing in the world hurts like infidelity”.

She insisted that she still loves Ozzy and she’s just “become this woman that takes care of this person and this is my life”.

Sharon’s comments about her marriage comes after she decided to pull out of The X Factor this year as a judge for the live shows.

She said in a statement in September: “After watching the new season #XFactor unfold, I’ve seen the new judges finding their rhythm and are doing brilliantly.

“Simon was so gracious to find me a spot on the live shows but at this point I really don’t think I’m needed and I would honestly feel odd coming in at this point. So I have decided to pass on the series this year.”

She added: “I wish the show continued success and as much as I love to get my face on TV you will have to do without me this season. Loves ya, Mrs. O.”

A spokesperson for ITV backed Sharon’s comments, saying in a statement: “The X Factor can confirm Sharon Osbourne has decided not to return to this year’s show.

“Sharon will always be a big part of The X Factor family and we wish her all the best for the future.”
