Sharon Osbourne has spoken for the first time about her split from Ozzy

"I'm doing great," she told the audience. "I really, really am. I honestly am empowered and I have found this inner strength. I can handle this. "It has been alleged that Ozzy, 67, was unfaithful with celebrity hairdresser Michelle Pugh, but Sharon chose not to address the claims. "I honestly at this point today have no idea what I'm doing with the rest of my life," she explained. "I just need time to think about myself, and what do I want for the rest of my life. (I'm) getting to the last chapter of my life. I really want to think carefully about where I want to go… because I am 63 years of age and I can't keep living like this."

I'm not with him, but I speak to him."She continued: "I don't know what I want. I've got to follow my heart and I don't even know what my heart is telling me right now. I'm just trying to take it all in, process it and do it calmly and in a timely fashion. "Sharon did make it clear that she still loves her husband. "I love Ozzy dearly," she said. "He's given me unbelievable life, he's given me three gorgeous children. I love him. "Sharon also thanked all her fans and co-hosts for the outpouring of support.
