To be a fly on the wall …

Sharon Osbourne claims she and Ozzy have only tried marriage counseling once in their 41-year marriage — and it went off the “Crazy Train” rails.

“One session. He lasted half an hour and threw a water bottle at the wall and walked out,” she told the Mirror on Thursday.

“No matter how much bad behavior or who’s wrong or right in a certain situation, I love him,” Sharon, 71, said of Ozzy, 75. “He’s the only man other than my dad that I’ve ever loved. I just adore him. And I knew what he was before I married him.”

The former “Talk” host also admitted to the outlet that her legendary rocker hubby, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2003, has “always been inappropriate with women.”

“We have a nurse at home, quite a large Russian lady, and she bent over him and he goes, ‘Tell me, did you breastfeed your kids?’ And I’m like, ‘You cannot say those things now. The world today is different, you cannot talk to a woman like that, you can get into trouble.'”

“He goes, ‘But for what?’ There’s no filter at all. He’s got Tourette’s with the truth. It just comes out,” Sharon claimed.

Ozzy and Sharon met in 1970 when her father, Don Arden, managed Black Sabbath. At the initial disapproval of Arden, Sharon decided to manage Ozzy’s solo career when he was kicked out of the group in 1979 due to his excessive substance abuse issues.

Sharon admitted Thursday, “In my youth, being naïve, I thought, ‘I can change Ozzy. He won’t drink when he’s with me. I’ll make him a nice home and nest and we’ll be happy ever after.’ But that’s not real life. I knew what he was. I knew he had addictions and I took it on. We can’t go for a wee without each other. It’s ridiculous.”

In January, the “Unbreakable” author claimed she attempted to end her life after learning about Ozzy’s 4-year affair with hairdresser Michelle Pugh.

“He always, always had groupies and I was so used to that,” Sharon told journalist Jane Moore, during an onstage interview in London. “But when he knows the name of the person, where they live and where they work … it is a whole different thing as you are emotionally invested. I took, I don’t know how many pills.

“I just thought ‘My kids are older, they are fine and can take care of themselves.’ So I took an overdose and locked myself in the bedroom. The maid tried to come in to clean the room and saw me,” she explained.

Despite their at-times turbulent marriage — Ozzy also attempted to strangle Sharon to death while high on drugs in 1989 — the feisty redhead continues to manage the “Iron Man” singer and care for him as he battles Parkinson’s.
