Sharon Osbourne Tests Positive for COVID-19

Sharon Osbourne released a brief statement via social media announcing she tested positive for COVID-19.

Osbourne wrote, "I wanted to share I’ve tested positive for Covid 19. After a brief hospitalization, I’m now recuperating at a location away from Ozzy (who has tested negative) while 'The Talk' is on scheduled hiatus. Everyone please stay safe and healthy."

In September, Osbourne announced on an episode of The Talk that her 3-year-old granddaughter tested positive for the coronavirus.

"I was meant to be in the studio, I was so looking forward to it. And then, unfortunately, one of my granddaughters [Minnie] has come down with COVID," said Osbourne. "She's okay; she's doing good. I don't have it. Her daddy [Jack Osbourne] doesn't have it. Her mommy doesn't have it. Her sisters don't. She got it from somebody who works for my son."

She continued, "And it just goes to show you, she's 3 years of age, that children can get COVID...I've got one more week left of quarantining and then I'm out. And as I say, I don't have it. I keep testing negative, but, you know, you have to be safe."
