Sharon Osbourne has stirred significant controversy after appearing to confirm her attendance at a far-right march in London, with critics accusing her of undermining the legacy of her late husband, Ozzy. The backlash has led to claims that the rock legend would be “rolling in his grave” over her decision.
OK! can reveal that the 73-year-old television personality and music manager made the announcement in response to a social media post by activist Tommy Robinson, who is organizing the demonstration set for May 16. The event has been framed as a protest against immigration and government policies, with Robinson calling on supporters to gather in London and declaring, “It’s the date the world hears our roar, and that we have had enough of migration and mass immigration and the oppression from a tyrannical government.”
The march is expected to draw tens of thousands of participants, following a similar September 2025 event which reportedly attracted more than 100,000 people. Sharon’s brief comment – “See you at the march” – posted beneath a video shared on the Gauci Reports Instagram account, quickly ignited debate online. This has added to a series of headline-grabbing moments involving Sharon and her 41-year-old daughter, Kelly, since Ozzy’s death in 2025.
In the video, Tommy Robinson insisted the protest would “bring London to a standstill” and claimed, “They have tried to silence us for decades, but we will be silenced no more.” Sharon’s public endorsement was swiftly amplified by the account, which replied: “Yes, Sharon,” before posting a message claiming confirmation of her attendance and describing her as “standing up” after witnessing changes in Britain, particularly in her hometown of Birmingham.
Reaction among fans has been sharply divided. Some expressed outrage, with one writing online: “She’s just as mad as (Robinson) is then,” while another critic commented: “Time to take your meds, Sharon.” Others voiced support, including one user who said: “Ozzy would be proud,” and another who added: “Good for you, lady.”
However, a source close to the situation told us: “Sharon believes she is speaking up for what she sees as real concerns in Britain, but many around her think this is a step too far and risks damaging how people remember Ozzy.” Another insider added: “Ozzy would not have aligned himself with something like this – they see it as completely at odds with his legacy. Some of the trolling Sharon is now getting is saying it’s like she is spitting on Ozzy’s grave with this as he would never get involved in this. He would be rolling in his grave if he could see this.”
The controversy follows Sharon’s recent comments about entering politics. Earlier this year, she revealed she had been approached by Conservative party representatives in Birmingham about potentially standing as a candidate against Shahid Butt, who had been convicted on terrorism charges. “This has nothing to do with racism,” she wrote on Instagram after viewing a video of Shahid. “I think I’m gonna move to Birmingham and put my name down for the ballot to be on the council.”
She added: “I’m serious.” Since Ozzy’s death at the age of 76, Sharon has divided her time between Los Angeles and the U.K. Reports suggest she is planning to sell the couple’s Hancock Park estate and downsize to a smaller property closer to her grandchildren. A source said: “Sharon feels the Los Angeles property no longer suits her life now – it’s far larger than she needs at this stage, and maintaining it has become more of a burden than a comfort. She is looking for something more practical and easier to manage, but still close enough to her family so she can remain actively involved in her grandchildren’s lives when she is in California. At the same time, her ties to England remain incredibly strong – it’s where she feels most rooted, and she continues to see it as her true home despite dividing her time between the two.”
Meanwhile, Kelly has faced her own scrutiny following significant weight loss after her father’s death. For which she has been relentlessly trolled. Responding to online body shaming criticism earlier, she hit back online: “Literally can’t believe how disgusting some human beings truly are! No one deserves this sort of abuse!” In a separate post, Kelly added: “My dad just died, and I’m doing the best that I can.”
At the BRIT Awards in February, Sharon accepted a Lifetime Achievement Award on behalf of Ozzy, telling the audience: “I’m honoured to accept this award from my gorgeous husband. God knows, I wish he was here to accept it himself.”
