Sharon Osbourne has opened up about her daughter Kelly Osbourne's relationship with Simon Cowell. Sharon, 72, who worked with Simon , 65, for over a decade on the ITV show and America's Got Talent , has been critical of him in recent years. However, she expressed happiness that her daughter Kelly, 40, also a former judge on Australia's Got Talent, is on good terms with Simon.
When asked by TMZ about this, Sharon said: "Oh, that's great. I'm happy that she does." She dismissed any notion of her daughter showing loyalty to her, saying: "God no, Simon's fine.
" She even described her former colleague as "great". This comes after Kelly spoke positively about Simon in an interview with Us Weekly, stating: "I'd never want to disrespect Simon. I like Simon.
" She also mentioned that Simon once had a "working relationship" with Sharon. Kelly revealed to the media that Simon and Sharon "had their issues," but she stays "out of it" unless it's something she deems "wrong". DON'T MISS.

Over the years since they last collaborated, Sharon has been openly critical of Simon, including during her stint on UK's Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year. As a "house guest" on the series, Sharon was reunited with Louis Walsh, another former judge on the X Factor. At one point, Sharon alleged that she had declined a role on the Masked Singer in the US because she had committed to a new series of the X Factor with Simon, which she said later fell through.
She told Louis: "I missed a huge gig. That's why I was furious." She also stated that she wouldn't work with Simon again for "all the money in the world".
Simon later responded to being mentioned on the show, telling the Mirror in April: "I still consider Sharon and Louis really good friends, we could pick up the phone to each other tomorrow. "I think that's probably one of the things they're upset about, because they can never get hold of me. I don't have a phone but from what I heard, what they said about me was actually quite funny.
