Sharon Osbourne has lived, in her own words, “50 lives in 50 years”. As the daughter of notorious rock manager Don Arden, Sharon’s childhood was a chaotic mix of glamour and violence, one week touring with Little Richard and Jayne Mansfield, the next meeting the Animals and Electric Light Orchestra. In her late 20s, after years of fierce loyalty to her ruthless father, who had betrayed her many times, Sharon finally made the painful decision to break with her family.
She found her soul mate in rock star Ozzy Osbourne, turning his career around and becoming a legendary manager and rock promoter in her own right. But Ozzy’s drug-taking and drinking fuelled excesses, which culminated in an attempt to strangle her, making their marriage a white-knuckle ride from the start. Only her devotion to their three children gave her the will to survive.
From the tremendous highs of the hit show The Osbournes to the lows of Ozzy’s near-fatal quad-bike accident and her own bout with colon cancer, Sharon’s tenacity, honesty, and humour have triumphed again and again.
