Sheryl Underwood Reaches Out
“I still believe there’s some love between me and Sharon Osbourne,” Sheryl Underwood stated during a recent guest appearance on ‘The View’. This remark comes five years after a highly publicized feud between the two, which was ignited during an episode of ‘The Talk’ in March 2021.
The conflict arose when Osbourne defended Piers Morgan’s controversial comments about Meghan Markle, leading to a heated exchange with Underwood. Following the incident, CBS conducted an internal investigation and ultimately concluded that Osbourne’s behavior did not align with the network’s values, resulting in her firing from the show.
In a significant turn of events, Underwood reached out to Osbourne after the passing of her husband, Ozzy Osbourne, in July 2025. “I tried to reach out when Ozzy passed,” Underwood shared, indicating her willingness to reconcile and move past their differences.
Reflecting on their tumultuous history, Underwood expressed her desire to mend fences, emphasizing that she does not enjoy conflict with her coworkers. “I don’t like to beef with my coworkers,” she remarked, highlighting her preference for a harmonious work environment.
Underwood’s personal journey has also been marked by challenges, including the suicide of her husband in 1990. She mentioned that she has become accustomed to living alone and enjoys her space, yet she is open to finding a partner. “I’ve been a widow for a few decades, and I’m looking for a man who’s willing to be in a monogamous relationship with me while he lives in his own separate house,” she explained.
The fallout from the feud between Underwood and Osbourne had lasting implications, with ‘The Talk’ ultimately being canceled three years after the incident. This cancellation marked the end of an era for the show, which had been a staple of daytime television.
As Underwood navigates her personal and professional life, her recent outreach to Osbourne suggests a desire for healing and reconciliation. The future of their relationship remains uncertain, but Underwood’s willingness to extend an olive branch signals a potential new chapter for both women.
