Sharon Osbourne has opened up about her difficult experience with Ozempic, the diabetes drug often used for weight loss. After losing over 30 pounds, the 72-year-old X Factor judge now warns others about its troubling effects.
She first admitted to using Ozempic on Celebrity Big Brother, revealing she once weighed over 230 pounds. While she initially felt “happier and healthier,” Sharon later told TalkTV, “I didn’t actually want to go this thin, but it just happened.”
Since then, she says she’s unable to gain any weight—despite trying. “Now I weigh just over 7st. I need to put on 10lb, but however much I eat, I stay the same,” she told the Daily Mail, calling it “frustrating.” She also added, “I’ve had enough… I won’t have any more fillers or Botox.”
Sharon also described constant nausea during her Ozempic use. “Every day I felt nauseous… my stomach was upset,” she shared on The Talk.
Now, she’s stepping back from interventions, saying, “This is me. It’s finally time to leave well alone.”
