A fiery throwback clip of Sharon Osbourne fiercely defending her late husband Ozzy is going viral following the rock icon’s death on Tuesday at age 76, with fans praising Sharon’s jaw-dropping loyalty.
The moment, pulled from a 2008 episode of Rock of Love: Charm School, shows Sharon unleashing on contestant Megan Hauserman — who struck a nerve when she insulted Ozzy.
‘The only thing you’ve managed to do as a celebrity is to watch your husband’s brain turn into a vegetable,’ Hauserman sneered.
Sharon quickly turned to the audience and said, ‘I feel so sorry for her,’ before standing up, calmly taking a sip from her cup — and then hurling the rest of the drink in Hauserman’s face.
Security scrambled onto the stage as the situation escalated, but Sharon held her ground.
‘They can f*** with me… I don’t give a sh** — but not my family,’ she told the stunned crowd with defiant flair.

Hauserman later sued Sharon for battery and distress, while Sharon countersued, saying the reality star had assumed the risk and broken their agreement by suing.
The case quietly settled in 2011 for an undisclosed six-figure sum.

‘Icon, legend, moment,’ read one viral comment.
And one fan summed it up: ‘Love Sharon for this. She’s sassy and don’t stand for disrespect. She’s a real one!’
The viral clip comes as Sharon spoke out for the first time since the death of her husband Ozzy, replying to heartfelt messages from fans.
English musician Gavin Rossdale took to Instagram shortly after the news broke to pay tribute to the heavy metal icon.
He posted: ‘RIP OZZY – a great man -a true legend – i met ozzy through jack just a few times but he was so warm and kind and funny and i love that memory .sending much love to his family at this difficult time. Rest in power.’
Sharon replied to his post: ‘Bless you.’
The Black Sabbath legend’s death was announced by his family on Tuesday night n a statement that read: ‘It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.
‘He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.’
Osbourne married Sharon, the daughter of the band’s manager Don Arden, on July 4, 1982.
After having daughter Aimee, now 38, in 1983, the couple went on to have Kelly, 37, in 1984, and Jack, 36, in 1985.
