Sharon Osbourne is getting candid about her love for husband Ozzy Osbourne, saying she knew what she was getting herself into when she married him. In a new interview, Sharon opened up about her 41-year-long marriage to the Black Sabbath frontman, and explained why she has stayed loyal to him despite him always being "inappropriate with women." "No matter how much bad behavior or who’s wrong or right in a certain situation, I love him," she told the Mirror. "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." She added, "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."
The TV-personality admitted that her husband has always been someone who says exactly what's on his mind, with no filter. "He’s always been inappropriate with women," she said. "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." Sharon said that they have tried couple's therapy in the past, but it never worked out. "One session. He lasted half an hour and threw a water bottle at the wall and walked out," Sharon said.
The pair got married in 1982 after meeting back in 1970 when Sharon's father was managing Black Sabbath. The pair didn't start dating until 1979 when Ozzy was kicked out of Black Sabbath due to substance abuse issues. Sharon stepped in, encouraging Ozzy to recover, along with taking over as manager for the band that same year. 41 years later, the pair shared three children together, Aimee, Kelly and Jack.
