It's been an uncertain year for the marriage of Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne.
2016 started with the revelation that the rocker cheated on his wife of 35 years with celebrity hairstylist Michelle Pugh, leading to speculation that their marriage was over according to a recent article in DailyMail UK .
But on the contrary to this, the couple have revealed their plans to renew their wedding vows for the second time.

Sharon, 64, was asked by her husband if they could say 'I do' all over again.
Speaking to The Sun on Sunday, she said: 'Ozzy has asked me to renew our wedding vows and I'd like to.
'I'm happy and to be honest that's all I want for Christmas this year.'
It's been a tumultuous year for the celebrity couple, who split up for a brief stint in May, allegedly partly thanks to his sex addition.
Sharon disappeared from the radar for a while, before agreeing to return to the judging panel of The X Factor UK, throwing herself into her work and looking noticeably more frail.

During the scandal, their daughter Kelly, 31, got involved, tweeting then deleting: 'Anyone looking for cheap chunky LOW-lights a blow out and a b***j** call...' allegedly alongside Michelle's phone number.
However, the family unit were soon able to work through the revelation, and Ozzy, 67, surprised Sharon with a bunch of flowers on her 64th birthday in October on live TV.
Sharon has admitted that their careers have got in the way of their relationship at times.
She added to The Sun: 'In my life I have been so blessed but when one side of your life is so brilliant other things can suffer. It is hard when you are both successful and both working away.
'It is easy to take each other for granted. We have been married for 35 years and been together 38 years. You have to have some ups and downs.'
The former music manager, who refers to her husband affectionately as a 'dirty dog', has admitted to being somewhat of a long-suffering partner to Ozzy - trying to help him kick his addition to drugs for the past 25 years.
Sharon met Ozzy when she was 18, whilst working for her father, Don Arden, who was managing Black Sabbath (Ozzy's band) at the time.

Ozzy was ultimately sacked from Black Sabbath in 1979, after which Sharon took him on as a solo client and began to date him on the side.
The two were married in Maui, Hawaii, on 4 July 1982.
There were allegedly issues between the pair from the very beginning of their union, with reports of physical altercations between the pair supposedly taking place fairly regularly.
This climaxed in 1989 when Ozzy was arrested following a drug-fuelled attempt at strangling his wife.

This forced the entertainer to enter rehab, which Sharon saw as a positive step towards their future, after which she forgave him, didn't press charges and continued with their marriage.
After a fairly low key decade in the 1990s, the family returned to mainstream fame in their reality series The Osbournes, in which Sharon and Ozzy appeared more than happy in their married life.

In 2015, the series was allegedly up for a revival, but any plans of this have since fizzled since the martial problems between Ozzy and Sharon this year.
The feisty red-head has other things on her mind this weekend, however, as she will be standing by her X Factor act, Saara Aalto, who battles Matt Terry for the 2016 crown on Sunday night at Wembley Arena.
