Four years after her unceremonious departure from Talk, Sharon Osbournelate husband calls CBS from beyond the grave.
IN Ozzy Osbourneposthumous memoirs Last ritesnow available after Black Sabbath rocker died aged 76 in July, he claimed that “they kicked Sharon” off the show after an on-air argument with her co-hosts over her friend. Piers Morgan.
“The man she is convinced set her up – and I won't name names because the last thing I want to do is stir up this shit again – I think knew what he was doing,” Ozzy wrote, according to Ozzy. Entertainment Weekly. “And Sharon, when she feels like she's backed into a corner, she pulls out of the fight.”
After Sharon had a fight with Sheryl Underwood over Morgan's comments about Meghan Markle that were perceived as racist, CBS started an investigation for exchange and put the show on break before Sharon ends up left my place weeks later.

Ozzy added that the “worst thing” was that people thought Sharon was racist because of her relationship with Morgan. “I can tell you without any doubt, my wife is not a racist. It is against everything she has ever stood for. Anyone who has spent more than five seconds with her knows that,” he wrote.
“The people she worked with on that show knew that,” Ozzy added. “Being tied to that label was just fucking wrong. Because you'll never get a gig anywhere on television if that's what people think of you. Game over. They knew it when they took her away.”
Although Sharon was “devastated for a long time,” Ozzy said he admired how she “just let it go and never talked about it again.”
“She's an incredible woman, my wife,” Ozzy added. “As for Talkpoetic justice ultimately prevailed. It's fucking cancelled.”
