She left chat show The Talk in March 2021 after a heated on-air discussion with a co-presenter about racism.

Ms Osbourne defended pal Piers Morgan after his departure from Good Morning Britain last year.

Fellow guest Sheryl Underwood asked Ms Osbourne: "What would you say to people who may feel that, while you're standing by your friend, it appears that you gave validation or safe haven to something that he has uttered that is racist, even if you don't agree?"

In response, Ms Osbourne said: "I feel even like I'm about to be put in the electric chair because I have a friend who many people think is a racist so that makes me a racist."
