Ozzy Osbourne Cheated: Rocker's Affair With Hairdresser Almost Led to Sharon Osbourne's Death

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's marriage hit rock bottom when the latter found out about her husband's infidelity.

The Celebrity Big Brother star dropped a shocking revelation about the time she found out Ozzy was cheating on her with hairdresser Michelle Pugh. The pair had been married for three decades when the affair started in 2012. It lasted until 2016, leading Sharon to attempt to kill herself.

Sharon Osbourne Reportedly Tried to Kill Herself

Sharon's interview in January resurfaced recently. The TV personality revealed at the time that she attempted suicide when she discovered Ozzy's infidelity.

"He always, always had groupies and I was so used to that," Sharon said, per The Mirror. "But when he knows the name of the person, where they live and where they work ... it is a whole different thing as you are emotionally invested. I took, I don't know how many pills."

The matriarch - who shares children Aimee, Kelly and Jack with Ozzy - explained that she did it because she thought her kids would be able to take care of themselves.

With that, she locked herself in the bedroom and attempted an overdose. Her housekeeper found her and prevented her from doing so.


Sharon also told The Telegraph there were six women in Ozzy's life.

"When I found out about the hairdresser, I couldn't believe it. Because none of these women were show ponies; he was doing it to fill the void in some way," she went on.

The Moment Sharon Osbourne Learned About Ozzy Osbourne's Affair

In May 2016, Sharon and Ozzy released a statement announcing their separation after 33 years of marriage amid reports about his affair with the stylist.

Months later, a representative revealed that the Prince of Darkness entered rehab for sex addiction. The treatment helped him and Sharon fix their marriage before renewing their vows in 2017.

"For me, this was actually our real wedding day. This is the one that I will remember. Sharon and I have been through so much, and this honestly feels like a new beginning," the Black Sabbath rocker told Hello! Magazine after the wedding.

Ozzy admitted to committing a "huge mistake," adding that he would be nothing without Sharon.
