What is going on with Sharon Osbourne’s health?
Fans had a lot to say about Sharon’s health after she posted a video on Instagram. In it, she explained that she was so grateful for the woman who returned her lost wedding ring at an event for soccer team Aston Villa's new store.
Internet sleuths helped Sharon find the woman to thank her personally. She offered a VIP experience for the woman and her family at her husband, Ozzy Osbourne’s, show next year.
While the post was touching, most people could only focus on how frail Sharon looked.
“Omg what’s happened to you Sharon” a fan wrote.
“Wow what happened to her???? She looked lovely before with more weight,” another added.
A third simply commented, “Unrecognisable.”
Sharon has already admitted to using Ozempic to lose weight.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Sharon said she started taking Ozempic in 2022.
Ozempic is an injection medication used to improve blood sugar levels in those with type 2 diabetes. But over the past few years, it has been used by millions — including celebrities — to lose weight. Other celebs who have admitted to using weight loss drugs include Amy Schumer, Oprah Winfrey, and Tracy Morgan.
"I started on Ozempic last December, and I’ve been off it for a while now, but my warning is don’t give it to teenagers, it’s just too easy," she said.
"You can lose so much weight and it’s easy to become addicted to that, which is very dangerous."
She said she lost 42 pounds and “can’t afford to lose any more.”
After a year, she had to stop taking it because it was causing her to lose too much.
"I'm too gaunt and I can't put any weight on. I want to, because I feel I'm too skinny.”
In 2023, she told Good Morning Britain that she wanted to gain 10 pounds. "I could do with putting on a few pounds, but at this point the way my body is, it's not listening. It's staying where it is." Over the years, she has dealt with weight fluctuations.
She appears to be taking these concerns about her weight loss seriously. In a recent Instagram video, she shared that she’s working with a wellness team to “start building back my overall strength and muscle tone post rapid weight loss.”
Even so, seeing Sharon working out on exercise equipment was worrying for concerned fans.
"Sharon, you're too thin. Eat something," one fan commented. "Sharon…. I absolutely adore you but…. You cannot afford to burn any more calories off," another added.
Others praised her for working on building muscle.
"Very smart getting help with muscle toning," this user wrote. "It so important. I'm very proud of you."
