Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne have been married for almost 40 years

The couple’s marriage was rocked in 2016 when the ‘Paranoid’ rocker admitted to having an affair with his hairstylist, but in the decades before that she’d been aware he was sleeping with ‘dirty old groupies’ and was confused if he felt he was helping women by having sex with them.

She said: “In the early days of touring it was ten people a night, all dirty old groupies. It wasn’t for me. As he got older, he knew their names, where they lived, all that.”

Speaking about them not being very attractive, she added, “At one point I was like, ‘Is he doing this to make them feel good?’ Salvation Army of Old Groupies.”

The 69-year-old presenter tried to take her own life after Ozzy’s infidelity in 2016 because she was “tired” of the “drama,” but a stay in a “semi-mad house” helped.

She told the Sunday Times magazine: “I was tired. I couldn’t take the drama of everything in my life. Everything was too much.

“I stayed [at the clinic] and got me together and you start again, don’t you?”

It seems the “Good Place” and her husband, Dax Shepard, didn’t want to get married until every single person in California had the right to.

He wrote, “F*** yes!!” Bell and Shepard married that same year.

Our beloved singer Pink proposed to her now husband, Carey Hart, in a very special way! It all happened during a 2005 motocross event that he competed in.

Next on the list is Sex and the City star Jennifer Hudson. In 2008, her then partner, lawyer and wrestler David Otunga, proposed to her on her birthday after almost two years of dating. Little did he know that a few months later our dear Jen would be doing the exact same thing. She also proposed to him on his birthday! They never made it to the aisle and in fact they broke up in 2017.

Iconic actor Elizabeth Taylor had a total of seven husbands and he proposed to one of them! According to The Guardian, she popped the question to actor Michael Wilding, who was twenty years her senior. He said yes! The couple married in 1952 but divorced amicably.

Legendary fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg turned down multiple proposals while dating her now-husband Barry Diller. But one day everything changed when she decided to wake up next to him for the rest of her life. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, she recalled how everything happened on his birthday. She said, “I called him and said, ‘You know, if you want, I’ll marry you for your birthday.’ Diller replied, ‘Let me see if I can arrange that.’ They have been happily married since 2001!

In an appearance on Busy Tonight, Ravenswood actress Haley Lu Richardson revealed that she was the one who proposed to her partner, Jane the Virgin star Brett Dier. Richardson said: “I was just asking. Neither of us is anything like a crazy romantic person, so nothing was planned. He was sitting there eating a pizza and he was telling me a joke that Shia LaBeouf said in an interview and he was doing that pretending to be Shia LaBeouf to explain this joke and for some reason I interrupted just him and said, ‘Will you marry me?'”

‘Dawson’s Creek’ graduate Joshua Jackson has been married to the gorgeous Jodie since 2019. But did you know that she proposed to him? During an appearance on The Tonight Show, Jackson told Jimmy Fallon how things happened. He said: “She asked me, yes, on New Year’s Eve. We were in Nicaragua. It was very beautiful, incredibly romantic. We went for a walk on the beach and she asked me to marry her.”

‘Succession’ actress Sarah Snook told Vogue Australia that she proposed to her partner, comedian Dave Lawson, while she was in lockdown! She said: “At the start of the pandemic last year I was locked up in Melbourne with one of my best friends and we fell in love. We’ve been friends since 2014, live together, travel together and are always happy to see each other other, but totally platonic. We’ve just never been single at the same time. I proposed to her and we got married in my backyard in February.”

TV personality Judy Sheindlin met her now-husband Jerry at a bar. While they were still together, she began to wonder where their relationship was going, so she decided to take things to the next level. In an interview with DuJour in 2013, she said, “I proposed to him. I said to him, ‘Where is this relationship going?’ And he tried to sneak out of there with his, ‘Well, you know, why do we have to get married?’ However. He finally capitulated. I told him to pick a date. He chose the day of the flag.”

One of Britney Spears’ most beloved relationships was the one she had with Kevin Federline in the mid ’00s. In an interview with People magazine, she revealed that she was the one who asked the ultimate question as she flew from Ireland to the United States. She said, “All of a sudden I said, ‘What if you want to get married?’ And from there I asked him to marry me.” Completely surprised, he said no! But then the ‘Sometimes’ hitmaker and the dancer tied the knot in 2004 and divorced three years later.

The ‘Talk’ star insisted she wasn’t weak in returning to her husband, with whom she has three children.

She said, “No, I’m not. I love him. I can go if I want, take half of everything and go. I do not want.”

Ozzy, 73, is still asking for Sharon’s forgiveness and is “very romantic”.

She said: “Before his accident, he used to bring me breakfast on a tray in bed. And he went into the garden and got a flower and wrote little notes for me. I framed them all.”

The former ‘X Factor’ star – who will celebrate her 40th wedding anniversary this summer – admitted she was “very” close to Ozzy due to his struggles with Parkinson’s disease and the aftermath of surgery following a bad fall in 2019 have to take care of.

She said: “It’s very difficult because the combination of Parkinson’s and his accident, well, which one is that? Why is this happening? Why is this happening?”

And the couple no longer have sex.

She said: “Oh, Ozzy was like a rabbit. He was the only guy I ever really enjoyed sex with because he was laughing and being silly.”

When asked if they’re still having sex, she added, “No, no, not now. But I just adore him. I just couldn’t think about my life without him. We kiss and cuddle all the time.”
