Sharon Osbourne has revealed the heartbreaking real reason she decided to sign up to Celebrity Big Brother and reunite with her long-time pal Louis Walsh.
The reality star queen, 71, has appeared on the ITV show as a house lodger and will only stay for a short amount of time due to the health of her husband Ozzy Osbourne.
The rockstar was diagnosed with Parkinson’s back in 2019, and Sharon has now revealed the real reason she went on the show was to reunite with Louis for Ozzy’s entertainment.
Speaking to The Sun prior to her appearance in the house, the former X Factor judge confessed that her husband loves watching old clips of her and Louis from their time on the hit singing show, prompting her to want to create more iconic moments.
Discussing the clips she told the publication: ‘My husband is always looking at them and he’s always saying, “Oh God, you and Louis, what a couple’. And so it makes him laugh.

‘And then I think, “oh well…” because Ozzy’s quite hard to make laugh and he just loves watching them.’
At the beginning of the series, Sharon gave an update on Ozzy’s condition as she admitted: ‘He’s doing ok, it’s hard for him but he’s doing ok. He’s already started to complain. I had my last phone call with him on the way here and he was miserable.’
Sharon also opened up about her friendship with Louis as their time together on CBB marks the first time they have been on screen together since 2017.
However Sharon insisted to The Sun that the pair have continued to be close since their time on X Factor together ended.
Speaking about the secret to their friendship, she admitted: ‘What’s the secret to our friendship? A very naughty sense of humour. Very naughty, very, very naughty. I don’t know what it is. I think we’ve got a similar sense of humour and sense of fun and naughtiness mischief.’
The star said she doesn’t see The X Factor ever coming back as she explained the music industry has changed so much and now new artists are discovered on social media.
However it seems this isn’t the only reason why Sharon doesn’t believe there will be an X Factor reunion, after she admitted on the show that she would never work with Simon Cowell again.
During Friday’s episode of Sharon was filled with anger as she said she wouldn’t work for Simon again, ‘not for all the money in the world’.

Speaking with Louis in the star’s private bedroom she explained: ‘That’s Simon, he cuts you off, cuts you off, cuts you off. He doesn’t know how to keep friends.
‘Why do you think I am so f****g mad with Simon because remember that year you and I were contracted to do X Factor and it was the first year of The Masked Singer in America and they asked me to do it and I said I can’t because of X Factor with Simon.
‘So then they cast it and then when Simon, well he didn’t call, but they called and said “No you’re not doing it [X Factor]” I missed a huge gig. So I was furious’.
She continued: ‘Do you remember everything that year in the press, they’re old, young blood. I went mad.
‘And then he called me. He was trying to sweet talk me. He would always change, change, change. You’re the one that needs changing mate.’
Taking a jibe at Simon’s repetitive dress sense, she added: ‘Someone who dresses the same for three decades, they don’t see that it’s not right. No one’s gonna tell him but everything, the same, the same, the same.’
Louis also admitted he hasn’t spoken to Simon since the X Factor days as he added: ‘I haven’t talked to him at all, nothing. Zero’.
