Sharon Osbourne has been unceasingly vocal over the past several weeks following her leave from ‘The Talk,’ and the former television host has turned her sights towards the royal family this week, making some pointed comments at Prince Harry. Holding nothing back, Osbourne spoke to Bill Maher, calling Harry the “poster boy” of white privilege.

Osbourne appeared on HBO’s ‘Real Time With Bill Maher’ to discuss her leave from ‘The Talk’ and claims leveraged against her that she is racist, and the 68-year-old left little unsaid. Things took a turn in Osbourne’s career in March when she defended her friend Piers Morgan following a statement he made ridiculing Meghan Markle and her interview with Oprah, and Osbourne evidently wasn’t done. She told Maher, “You know when they say white privilege? You know, right there with Harry. Right there. He is the poster boy.”
Rather than take accountability for her actions and apologizing for the claims leveled against her, Osbourne was unceasingly defensive, deflecting her anger back at Prince Harry. She continued, “So you know, he sits there and says daddy cut him off and he's not on the wages anymore, and he was boohooing about it,” before saying that she did not feel any empathy for the former royal.
However, when the topic of her own alleged racism came up, Osbourne took a strong stance. “I've been called so many things in my life. I am so used to being called names. But a racist is one I will not take.” Osbourne staunchly denied the claims that she used racist and offensive rhetoric with her former ‘The Talk’ co-hosts, instead calling them “disgruntled ladies.” Only time will tell who will fall in her line of fire next!
