In a past interview with CBS’ Dan Rather posted by AXS TV, Sharon Osbourne revealed that she was 18 years old when she first met Ozzy and his bandmates, who were in their twenties. She met the rockers while working with her father, music manager Don Arden, and was taken aback by their long hair and disheveled appearance.

Sharon Osbourne shared her first words since announcing the death of her husband, Ozzy Osbourne. The reality TV alum, 72, reacted after fellow musician Gavin Rossdale posted a touching tribute to the late Black Sabbath rocker following his passing on Tuesday,

The Black Sabbath frontman met the former America's Got Talent judge in 1970. Following his divorce from his first wife, Thelma Riley, Ozzy married Sharon in 1982. While they briefly split in 2016, Sharon told PEOPLE in September 2022 that they "never gave up on each other."
