Fiesty mama of the family Sharon Osbourne was born in London in 1952.
Her father was Don Arden who managed Black Sabbath. Sharon married Ozzy on 4th July 1982 but by then had already taken over from her father managing Ozzy's career.
She's a genius businesswoman who's legendary for her revenge tactics, not someone you want to be on the wrong side of! An inspiration to everyone, she seems to manage to make order out of chaos and keep the whole Osbourne clan together as well as sorting out tours, albums and TV shows at the same time.
Recently diagnosed with cancer, Sharon's had a very different kind of challenge to deal with and yet again has come out on top and in control. Who would have expected anything less?
