How Sharon Osbourne's Former Talk Co-Hosts Showed Their Support For Her

Sharon Osbourne has had a rocky relationship with "The Talk" ever since she joined the CBS daytime talk show as an original member of the panel in 2010. Many co-hosts came and went over the years, but Osbourne remained a staple until she exited the show under a cloud of controversy following a racially charged on-air verbal altercation with co-host Sheryl Underwood.

After the heated exchange in March 2021, "The Talk" went on hiatus while the network undertook an internal investigation. Before the first show back in April 2021, it was revealed that Osbourne would not return after more than a decade on the panel. CBS confirmed it was Osbourne's decision to step away and claimed in a statement obtained by The Hollywood Reporter that Osbourne's views expressed during the controversial episode "did not align with our values for a respectful workplace." The lengthy statement continued, in part, "Going forward, we are identifying plans to enhance the producing staff and producing procedures to better serve the hosts, the production and, ultimately, our viewers."

However, mere weeks after Osbourne's exit, her former co-stars made it clear that they still have her back. Read on for all the details.

Though she did not leave their sides on the best terms, some of Sharon Osbourne's former "The Talk" co-hosts rallied around her on April 23 after she revealed on Instagram that her beloved cat had gone missing. Osbourne shared several photos of the feline, named Momo, and revealed that her pet had been missing for three days. She urged her followers to look around the Larchmont area of Los Angeles and explained that she was offering a reward for Momo's safe return. "Praying my baby Momo is safe and ok," Osbourne wrote. "She is chipped but does not wear a collar. She is VERY friendly & cuddly but not street smart. She is an indoor cat."

Two of Osbourne's "The Talk" co-hosts shared their support in the comments section. Per People, Amanda Kloots wrote, "Oh! I have a friend near the area too I will alert her! So sorry Mrs!!" Carrie Ann Inaba also shared a sweet message for Osbourne, writing, "Do not give up. My moms cat was hiding from her for months.. and she was nearby... we eventually found her. Leave out food and water.... and call out to her on evening walks." The "Dancing with the Stars" judge added, "Sending you so much love.... I'm so sorry...keep the faith."

Despite all the drama, it's good to see some of Sharon Osbourne's "The Talk" co-hosts showing their continued support during such a distressing time.
