Sharon Osbourne has revealed that her relationship with Simon Cowell is not what it once was – and here’s why…
The Celebrity Big Brother star recently spoke about her friendship with the music mogul on the ITV show and confirmed they had fallen apart over the years. Sharon said on the show: “We were, in the beginning, the three of us, really close friends.
“But then he kind of left our group and went on. But no, he’s weird as far as friends go. Very, very closed off.

“He would not call Louis or I. He is very, what’s the word? Snotty. Simon just is.”
“He has his little posse around him, the same people he’s had for years, and that’s who he talks to. He’s not really one of these guys who’ll be like, ‘Hey great. You’ve given us a call. How are you doing?
“Yada, yada, yada. He’s not one of those ‘checking in’ on friends to see if you’re doing OK.”
We spoke to a former CBB and X Factor contestant who had the inside scoop on the situation after working on both of the big TV shows involved. X Factor Stevi Ritchie spoke exclusively to the Daily Star and claimed he knew why the pair’s bond had been fractured.
He told us: “It’s because he didn’t want her on one of his talent shows or something and chose someone else. I believe he ended up choosing Mel B for a booking instead. She was one of the judges on my X Factor series – and let’s be honest everybody loves a Spice Girl!”
Sharon was at the top of CBB producers’ lists this series but being in her 70s she’s claimed it isn’t to revive her career. Sharon said: “I’ve already done it all. I’ve done theatre, I’ve done TV. I’ve done everything I wanted to do. That’s why, with something like CBB, it’s to be enjoyed. It’s a great experience and that’s literally it. I’m just here for the laugh and that’s liberating, very liberating.”
