Ozzy Osbourne has admitted he “sometimes doesn’t love” his wife.
The Black Sabbath rocker, 75, who is suffering from a series of health issues, including a rare form of Parkinson’s, made the admission days after his partner Sharon, 71, admitted she tried to take her life in 2016 amid Ozzy’scheating.
Ozzy said on The Osbournes Podcast about their relationship: “Sharon is like my soulmate. Sometimes I love her, sometimes I don’t love her, sometimes I’m angry with her, sometimes I’m crazy about her, sometimes I’m very jealous of her, sometimes I wanna kill her.”
“But through it all, at the end of the day, I love her more than anything in the world.
“Put it this way, I couldn’t live without her – I don’t wanna live without her.
“And my love for her now is bigger than it ever has been.”
Sharon responded: “Ditto.” She attempted to overdose after learning of Ozzy’s infidelity with a hairdresser called Michelle Pugh, which lasted four years between 2012 and 2016.
Sharon learned of Ozzy’s unfaithfulness after trawling through his emails, which led to them briefly splitting at the time.
She spoke about the ordeal with her friend Jane Moore on stage last week, saying: “[Ozzy] always, always had groupies, and I was so used to that.

“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.
“I just thought, ‘My kids are older, they are fine and can take care of themselves.’
“So I took an overdose and locked myself in the bedroom. The maid tried to come in to clean the room and saw me.”
Ozzy hailed Sharon as a “god” in 2019 for taking him back after his affair, adding to the Sun: “We all make mistakes. I’m lucky she took me back.”
