Last month, we reported that the former First Lady Michelle Obama had shockingly admitted that she “couldn’t stand” her husband Barack for ten out of the thirty years they were married. Now, the British media personality Sharon Osbourne is firing back to give her thoughts on this revelation, and she didn’t mince any words.

‘It Really Offends Me’

The Express reported that on her British television show “TalkTV,” Osbourne took issue with what Michelle had to say. 

“I don’t like the word hate,” she said. “It really offends me.”

Osbourne went on to talk about her 40 year marriage to the Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne. 

“I’ve never hated my husband. He p***es me off, definitely!” she exclaimed. “”I want to give him a good dig sometimes! But no, I’ve never…”

“Really, so you don’t agree with Michelle’s comments at all, then?” asked her co-host Ian Collins, to which Osbourne replied, “Well, that’s her relationship with her husband, every relationship is different.”

Michelle ‘Couldn’t Stand’ Barack

This came after Michelle said in an interview that there were years that she “couldn’t stand” her husband. 

“People think I’m being catty for saying this: it’s like, there were 10 years where I couldn’t stand my husband,” Michelle said. “And guess when it happened? When those kids were little.”

Michelle was referring to her and Barack’s two daughters Malia and Sasha, who are now adults but were only 10 and 7 when their family moved into the White House. 

“For 10 years while we’re trying to build our careers and worrying about school and who’s doing what and what, I was like, ‘Argh, this isn’t even!’” Michelle continued. “And guess what? Marriage isn’t 50/50, ever. Ever. There are times I’m 70, he’s 30. There are times he’s 60, 40. But guess what? Ten years. We’ve been married 30. I would take 10 bad years over 30 — it’s just how you look at it. People give up — ‘Five years; I can’t take it.’”

Osbourne Doubles Down

On “TalkTV,” co-host Collins circled back to Michelle’s comments by saying, “I think what she’s aiming at is to say that he was on the rise, he was on the way to becoming president.

“And she felt she was not getting a look in,” he continued. “She resented that the dynamic of the marriage was in favour of him and not her.”

Osbourne, however, disagreed. 

“I thought she meant that the kids were driving her mad,” she said, to which Collins replied, “That as well…because the mum has to put up with all that probably more.”

“Well no, I don’t think today,” Osbourne said, not having it once again. “I think the tables are turning. I know so many guys who are the stay-at-home guys and the wife goes out to work and so I think it’s all changing.”

It seems that Osbourne may be just as tired of Michelle’s whining and complaining as the rest of us are! 

Osbourne typically stays away from commenting on politics, but she’s also long been one of the few people in the media who is not afraid to tell it like it is. That’s why it won’t come as a surprise to many that Osbourne had the guts to publicly disagree with Michelle, who is such a liberal icon that most members of the media fawn over everything she says. 

If only there were more people on television like Osbourne!
