Sharon Osbourne has praised King Charles’ wife, Camilla, for ‘winning the British public over’ following the death of Queen Elizabeth II

Ozzy Osbourne’s wife appeared on TalkTV and discussed Camilla’s new title, Queen Consort, with Vanessa Feltz.

The discussion began with Feltz saying: “Sharon let’s talk to you about this, I know that you had a close relationship with members of the royal family. I know the king himself sent you a letter when Ozzy wasn’t well.

“And you know, you really do feel empathy and it seems to me a great affection for them, you’re very, very fond of Camilla as well, the Queen Consort. So how did you feel watching the funeral today?”

Osbourne replied: “I really respect her, I think that she’s a very brave woman. And I think that she has done incredibly well in the last few years, incredibly well!

“She has won the public over with her dignity and the work that she does, and I just really respect her and I adore [her].”

The former X-Factor judge went on to add King Charles will be ‘amazing’ in his new role and ‘will do great things for the country’, adding: “So many people miss the point – they are a family, a tight-knit family. The grandchildren and the children will be completely devastated.

“She represented strength. Why would anybody want to come to Britain? Because of our traditions, because of our royal family. Everything that comes with Britain, it’s historical. She kept going and that’s what makes Britain different from every other country – our traditions.”

Plans to make Camilla Queen Consort were announced amid the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

At the time, Her Majesty stated: “And when, in the fullness of time, my son Charles becomes King, I know you will give him and his wife Camilla the same support that you have given me; and it is my sincere wish that, when that time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort as she continues her own loyal service.”

She continued: “I was blessed that in Prince Philip I had a partner willing to carry out the role of consort and unselfishly make the sacrifices that go with it.”

Following the announcement, the now King Charles commented that he hoped his ‘darling wife’ would be a ‘steadfast support’.

According to Daily Mail royal editor Rebecca English, Camilla felt ‘very honoured and very touched’ to be given the title by the Queen.
