Sharon Osbourne Exits ‘Celebrity Big Brother UK’ After Eight Days: “It’s Been A Great Party”

Sharon Osbourne exited Celebrity Big Brother after spending eight days in the most famous house in the UK.

Osbourne was a “lodger” and wasn’t an official housemate, having agreed to appear in the reality competition for only one week. The former The Talk co-host was not evicted from the house and didn’t face the public vote.

“It’s been a great party. I have loved it,” Osbourne said after Big Brother announced her time had ended.

Big Brother asked Osbourne to name the housemates who impacted her most, saying it was Nikita Kuzmin.

“He’s beautiful inside and outside,” Osbourne said about the Strictly Come Dancing dancer.

Osbourne also mentioned Levi Roots because “he’s just a genuinely good guy.”

“I’ve loved every minute,” Osbourne said outside the house before her daughter Kelly joined her on stage to give her a hug.

Osbourne’s exit came on the same night a second eviction took place. The housemates nominated Louis Walsh, Lauren Simon, and Zeze Millz for eviction, but as a lodger, Osbourne had the option to save one of them. Osbourne gave Millz the save, but in return, Big Brother asked her to put someone else on the block — choosing Fern Britton to face the public vote.

After the public vote, Simon of The Real Housewives of Cheshire was evicted from the house, becoming the second housemate to leave the show.

Since entering the Celebrity Big Brother UK house, Osbourne has had many privileges right from the get-go. She was partnered with her former X-Factor UK co-star Walsh to “judge” the housemates. At the end of the night, Big Brother tasked them with putting three housemates in the ring of fire, choosing Kate Middleton’s uncle Gary Goldsmith, David Potts, and Zeze Millz.

Before the nominations for the first eviction, Osbourne would save two of the endangered housemates and keep one on the block. Osbourne chose Goldsmith to face the public vote and was ultimately the first housemate evicted after five days in the house.
