Ozzy Osbourne has had a hairy past with drug and alcohol addiction, and while it never completely leaves you, he seemed to be staying clean and doing well. He was, actually – until the past few years, when he had a relapse which may or may not have contributed to his marriage problems with wife Sharon.
Writing on his Facebook page, Ozzy admitted to having gone back to abusing substances but said that he’s been clean for roughly 6 weeks and hopes to continue on that path.
For the last year and a half I have been drinking and taking drugs. I was in a very dark place and was an asshole to the people I love most, my family. However, I am happy to say that I am now 44 days sober.
Just to set the record straight, Sharon and I are not divorcing. I’m just trying to be a better person.
I would like to apologize to Sharon, my family, my friends and my band mates for my insane behavior during this period………and my fans.
God Bless,
Ozzy
Damn, Ozzy, that’s rough. Good for him for admitting that he has had a problem and vowing to get back on the wagon. Having slip ups is going to happen in life, but here’s hoping he manages to stay clean and sorts stuff out with SHARONNNNNNNN!
That’s actually really sad. Who knows how long he was sober for prior to this happening. Addiction really is a lifelong struggle.
violent drug addled animal …probably punched sharon 1 too many times
oh yes, there ’tis….
