Sharon Osbourne has criticised the “very bad” behaviour of women who appear in reality franchise series The Real Housewives.
Osbourne, 71, who is a “celebrity lodger” on ITV1’s Celebrity Big Brother, said she does not like the way the women “represent themselves” on the show.
During Sunday’s instalment of the series, former X Factor judge Louis Walsh asks Osbourne about the show’s popularity in the US, while talking to The Real Housewives Of Cheshire star Lauren Simon.

Osbourne says: “I honestly, honestly don’t watch them because I don’t like the way the women are.
“I think it’s very, very bad the way they represent themselves with the cat fighting.”
Simon says: “It’s the way it’s produced.”
Osbourne adds: “They live bullshit lives, not real lives.”
Elsewhere in Sunday’s episode, Love Island star Ekin-Su Culculoglu asks Osbourne if she would ever consider signing up for internet subscription site OnlyFans, which is commonly used by sex workers.

Culculoglu says: “I’d rather have zero pounds than £1 million doing it (making money) the wrong way, but have pride”.
When asked if she would consider it, Osbourne tells Culculoglu: “F*** off.”
Housemates will wake up to the Celebrity Big Brother pad being transformed into Big Brother’s Police Department.
They are tasked with solving a murder in order to win this week’s luxury shopping budget, and Ibiza Weekender star David Potts is given a secret mission in which he must “sabotage, misdirect and corrupt the crime-fighting efforts” of his fellow officers.
Celebrity Big Brother airs at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
