Sheryl Underwood has revealed her evolving feelings towards Sharon Osbourne, especially after the recent passing of Ozzy Osbourne. During her appearance on The View, Underwood explained that despite their tumultuous history, which was punctuated by a heated on-air argument back in 2021, she still holds some affection for Osbourne. Underwood noted, “you don’t sit next to somebody for that amount of time and don’t have no love,” highlighting the complexities of workplace relationships in the entertainment industry.
In a moment of vulnerability, Underwood admitted she attempted to reach out after Ozzy’s death but hesitated to leave a voicemail. She expressed concern that her message could be misunderstood, which adds another layer to their already complicated relationship. Meanwhile, Osbourne has previously apologized to Underwood, stating she felt pressured to do so despite believing she did nothing wrong. It’s this mix of love, hurt, and miscommunication that proves celebrity friendships can be as dramatic as any soap opera—just with better lighting and wardrobes.
The truth is, both women are still navigating the rocky terrain of their friendship. Whether they can ultimately mend their relationship remains to be seen, but Underwood’s willingness to reach out offers a glimmer of hope for healing. In the end, it seems that even in Hollywood, sometimes it’s okay to admit when you’re scared to pick up the phone. It’s a reminder that behind the glitz and glamour, they’re just human, after all.
