The X Factor judge and reality television star Sharon Osbourne, 54, is very proud of her children’s accomplishments. Sharon and husband, Ozzy, 58, have three children: Aimee, 24, Kelly, 22, and Jack, 21. She says:

My kids have got their wings and they’ve flown. They’ve done it on their own because they’re hard-working, not trustfund babies who’re expecting an inheritance.

Jack was only 15 and Kelly was 16 [Aimee opted not to appear in the reality show] when The Osbournes started. They’ve taken a lot of stick, a lot of criticism, but they’ve come out the other side.

I’ve never said anything I’ve done is right. Like every family we’ve had problems. But I’m so proud of all of my kids.

Sharon’s new book Survivor: My Story – The Next Chapter, is available in October and she explains that she and Ozzy were anxious for another child and underwent IVF treatment after Jack was born. Sharon says:

But sadly it didn’t work. After I had Jack I got a stomach infection and I didn’t treat it, so the infection spread into my tubes and messed them up. So we went through IVF but oh my God, I just couldn’t take that ride.

The wait for results, for each phone call, was mental torture. It did me in and I couldn’t go through it again.

Sharon also talks about her desire to become a grandmother.

I’m so dying to be a grandma, it’s disgusting. What mother says to their girls, ‘Oh, it doesn’t matter if you get pregnant, darling. Don’t take the Pill, I don’t mind!’

Celebrity babies Kelly Osbourne and her sister Aimee Osbourne are feeling quite a bit of pressure from their mom Sharon Osbourne to have children as soon as possible so that the wife/manager of rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, can be a grandmother. Sharon says that that would be the best Christmas present her kids could get her.

"I am absolutely dying for grandchildren," Sharon says. "I keep saying to the girls, ‘Go get pregnant. I don’t care who with, just get pregnant.’"

However, Sharon and Ozzy’s youngest daughter says she’s in no rush to make her mother’s wish come true. "I’m sure I’ll have kids one day but not now," Kelly says. "Everyone I like is gay or married. I can’t see myself getting married until I’m 40."

Sharon and Ozzy also have their son Jack who can give them grandchildren, plus Ozzy’s older children from his previous relationships.
