Sharon Osbourne is coming clean about a past decision she made for husband Ozzy Osbourne.

“Do you want to know the biggest mistake I ever made with Ozzy?” Sharon, 72, said on the Wednesday, February 19, episode of “The Magnificent Others With Billy Corgan” podcast. “He got offered to go and read for Pirates of the Caribbean — and I’ve never said this to anyone.”

Host Billy Corgan replied, “And you said no?” Sharon confirmed, adding, “I said no. Now, wouldn’t he have been perfect?”

Corgan and Sharon began laughing at the idea of Ozzy being in the film. “Because when Johnny [Depp] … wanted Keith to be a pirate, you remember?” she asked, referring to Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, who played Depp’s dad, Captain Teague.

Sharon Osbourne 'Took An Overdose' of Pills After Learning of Ozzy's Affair

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl was released in June 2003, chronicling Captain Jack Sparrow (Depp) and young blacksmith Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) who attempt to rescue Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) after she is kidnapped by Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush). The film sparked four additional sequels: Dead Man’s Chest (2006), At World’s End (2007), On Stranger Tides (2011) and Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017).

Sharon, for her part, has been married to Ozzy since 1982 and shares daughters Aimee, 41, Kelly, 40, and son Jack, 39. (Ozzy is also the father of daughter Jessica, 51, and son Louis, 49, with ex-wife Thelma Riley.)

Sharon and Ozzy briefly split in 2016 after he reportedly had an affair with hairdresser Michelle Pugh. However, in July 2016, Sharon told The Talk viewers that she had forgiven Ozzy for his infidelity. (Sharon was a host on The Talk from 2010 to 2021.)

“I shouldn’t speak for him. I know he wants to come on this show anyway and talk for himself to you all,” she said at the time. “He feels that he owes everyone here an apology because he’s put us all through it. He’s very embarrassed and ashamed about his conduct.”

Years later, Ozzy called cheating on Sharon one of the most “outrageous” things he had done. “I regret cheating on my wife,” he told GQ in November 2020. “I don’t do it anymore.”

“I got my reality check and I’m lucky she didn’t leave me,” he continued. “I’m not proud of that. I was pissed off with myself. But I broke her heart.”

The pair have been candid about weathering the storms of their marriage. “He always, always had groupies and I was so used to that,” Sharon said during her January 2024 Sharon Osbourne: Cut The Crap stage show in London per the U.K.’s The Mirror. “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.”

Sharon believed that her children were “older” and could “take care of themselves” without her. “So I took an overdose and locked myself in the bedroom,” she continued. “The maid tried to come in to clean [the] room and saw me.”

Ruby Franke’s 11-year-old daughter is speaking out about the negative impact her mother’s vlogging had on her life.

Kevin Franke, Ruby’s ex-husband, appeared at a hearing for the House Business, Labor and Commerce Committee in Utah on Tuesday, February 18, where he read a statement on behalf of his 11-year-old daughter, per The Salt Lake Tribune. (Kevin and Ruby share kids Shari, Chad, Abby, Julie, Russell and Eve.)

“I thought nothing was wrong,” the 11-year-old’s statement read. “I felt ‘happy,’ but I really wasn’t. When I started getting older, I realized the YouTube channel had ruined my childhood. But at least I got some money, right? Oh, right, I actually didn’t, because my mom withdrew all of it in 2023. I worked hard for that money. I acted like someone I wasn’t in front of the camera, and I earned that money. But I feel like my mom used me for money.”

Her statement continued, “You all might be saying right now that my dad told me to say these things, and is using me, but that is not true. If anyone is using their kids, it’s the YouTubers filming them for money.”

Kevin was at the committee meeting in support of a state bill that would financially protect child influencers and the earnings they make via their parents’ content. The bill would require online creators earning more than $150,000 annually from content featuring children to set aside a portion of the earnings into a trust the children can access when they turn 18.

“I know I am stuck with the trauma of YouTube,” the child’s statement continued. “Even now, I can barely make friends, because my whole life I was the center of attention. But now, without even realizing it, I seek attention from others, or I feel like they don’t like me. Then those people think I’m mean.”

She added that she hoped the bill would keep “the children of Utah more safe,” adding that she knows “more than anything” about “the horrible situation that a lot of kids are in right now.”

Kevin also read a statement from his 16-year-old daughter, who noted that “as kids, you don’t realize what you’re subjected to” when discussing being front and center on her mother’s YouTube channel.

Ruby was convicted of child abuse and sentenced to four consecutive prison terms in February 2024, which range from one to 15 years each.

“You’re selling your life, your privacy, your body and stories to the entire world,” the 16-year-old’s statement continued. “And as a child, you’re involuntarily giving up all of that. You’re selling your childhood. Though there is no amount of money that can make up for that loss, the least that can be done now is making sure the child is getting paid for her work and has the right to remove it and walk away if she wants to.”
