SHARON OSBOURNE: If OZZY Had Died I Would Have Killed Myself

January 6, 2004

Sharon Osbourne has spoken to the U.K.'s Sunday Mirror about what she would have done had her husband Ozzy been killed in the all-terrain vehicle accident last month.

"If Ozzy had gone, I would have gone with him," she said. "I wouldn't want to, or be able to, spend the rest of my years without Ozzy.

"I couldn't go on without him. He is not just the love of my life, he IS my life."

In a whisper, Sharon added: "I would have taken the cowards' way out and taken pills or something. I am not a gun person that is far too frightening. It would have been pills and alcohol."

"The children are at a stage where they are all grown up and have got their own lives with a good bunch of people around them. They could make their own way in life and go on without me. But I couldn't survive without Ozzy."

As Ozzy began to emerge from his coma, he at first did not recognize his wife and would only talk to daughter Kelly. In his confused state, Ozzy also wrongly convinced himself Sharon was having an affair. But after two days Sharon was relieved to see signs of the "old Ozzy". "I knew he was getting better because he asked me to lend him 20 quid," Sharon joked. "He was terribly confused for the first couple of days he was awake. He was dreadfully paranoid and his mind was all jumbled up. He just did not know what had happened and could not make out what was reality and what he had dreamt.

"Ozzy kept telling me there had been a bomb blast in Wales. I have to patiently tell him what is real and what is not.

"He has even told me that we met Prince Edward at Buckingham Palace. He keeps saying that Edward was too frightened to come up to speak to him and kept hiding behind his brother Charles.

"When I tell him we have not met either of them he won't believe me." Read more.
