Jack Osbourne Hanging with Wife and Kids After She Files for Divorce
Jack Osbourne and his wife — who just days ago filed for divorce — are ripping a page outta the Gwenyth Paltrow and Chris Martin playbook … literally. We got Jack and Lisa Osbourne out with their 3 kids Monday in Studio City –…
Jack Osbourne and Lisa Osbourne: It"s Over!
On February 3 of this year, Jack Osbourne and Lisa Osbourne welcomed baby #3.
So fans were shocked at the surprise announcement that Jack and Lisa have filed for divorce.
Now that the news is out, the couple has released a statement over social media.
On Friday, The Blast revealed that Jack and Lisa had filed for divorce.
What’s more is that the filing revealed that the couple had been separated since May 4.
Some separations last for years. For others, it’s just a very brief step before divorce.
Lisa Osbourne is asking for joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s three children.
The reason for the filing is “irreconcilable differences.”
Which … could mean almost anything.
Fortunately, the two have issued a statement.
Taking to social media, Jack and Lisa addressed their fans and followers:
“Hello! So the news about us separating has probably come as a bit of a shock to everyone.”
Absolutely. They didn’t show any sign of issues on social media, and their youngest child is just a few months old.
“But, we just want to clear the air and share with you what’s going on.”
That is so decent of them.
“So, first and foremost, we absolutely still love each other.”
That’s good to hear.
“Our family is the most important thing in our lives, and we tried everything we could for many years to make this work.”
That certainly makes this sound like the result of a long-standing problem.
However, love isn’t enough to make a marriage work.
“What’s best for our family right now is that we separate lovingly.”
They’re absolutely right. Some people try to stay together for their children, and a troubled marriage is seldom best for the child.
“And remain best friends who are committed to raising our children together.”
That sounds very promising.
“We had 7 beautiful years of being a couple …”
That is a very long time for any relationship, marriage or otherwise, to last.
” … Filled with the most amazing moments and we will be eternally grateful to one another for that.”
That is so sweet.
The statement continues.
“We also have 3 wonderful children [whom] we cherish more than anything.”
Pearl Clementine was born in April 2012. Andy Rose was born in June 2015. And, of course, Minnie Theodora was born in February of 2018.
“We are disappointed.”
That is more than understandable. A lot of couples think that they will be the ones to beat the odds. But, obviously, that’s not true of all of them.
But they express optimism for the future.
“But feel confident that we will continue to grow our relationship as co-parents and best friends.”
Some have pointed to the apparently abrupt breakup after plenty of lovey-dovey posts and wondered if something happened.
Cheating. They wonder if cheating happened. If an affair were suddenly discovered, that would drive plenty of people to separate and then hastily divorce.
But it’s important to realize that plenty of couples, celebrities in particular, can have disagreements or other issues for months or even years without showing any sign of it on social media.
Maybe there was a proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back for their marriage.
Or perhaps its failure was inevitable, and they fought for years. That’s what they’re saying, anyway.
It is worth noting that Lisa Osbourne has purged recent photos of Jack from her Instagram, which may indicate that things are a little less amicable than they would have us believe.
But perhaps it’s just a sign that this is difficult for everyone involved.

Sharon Osbourne Defends Calling Kim Kardashian a "Ho"
Last week, a feud seemed to erupt out of nowhere when Sharon Osbourne called Kim Kardashian a “ho” for reasons that still aren’t entirely clear.
The remark was made in an interview with The Telegraph in response to a question about whether Kim is right to consider herself a feminist.
“Kim says she’s doing everything in the name of feminism, but that’s not feminism!” Osbourne told the outlet.
“Those girls live off their bodies, half of L.A. has been through them and everything they do from the sex tape to the plastic see-through dresses and the gym wear is about sex, not female progress.”
Osbourne continued:
“God bless them. If Kim wants to show off her body, fine. But that’s not feminism, that’s being a ho. And there’s nothing wrong with being a ho, but always remember what you are.”
Osbourne’s comments are so loaded with irony that we’d tip our hat if she were making herself look dumb on purpose, but we’re pretty sure that’s not the case.
The idea of a feminist gatekeeper who gets to decide which women are worthy of the title seems rather … anti-feminist.
But Kim didn’t even bother to point that out when she clapped back at Sharon.
Instead, Ms. Kardashian-West merely pointed out that she never claimed she posts nude photos in the name of feminism:
“I think she said I said a quote about, ‘I post nude photos in the name of feminism.’ Never said that. So I think when people misquote you and then comment, it just sounds ridiculous,” Kim said last week.
“I post nude photos because I like how I look and I feel proud when I’ve lost all this baby weight and I post it because I feel like posting it and I feel powerful.”
No one – including Kim Kardashian – is claiming that Kim Kardashian nudes are the 21st Century’s answer to The Feminine Mystique.
Basically, Osbourne built up a curvaceous straw man, gleefully tore it down, and rightfully got called out.
Naturally, she went into damage control mode and began frantically backpedaling during Monday’s episode of her The View knockoff, The Talk:
“It’s so ridiculous how these things happen,” Sharon said.
“I was doing this interview, and (the reporter) said to me ‘have you heard that Kim Kardashian has come out as a feminist’ … and of course I commented.”
Osbourne continued:
“She asked my opinion and I gave it. It wasn’t rude, it wasn’t … whatever (Kim) does, it’s showing her body. Which shows that she’s a strong grounded woman and she’s not ashamed of her body, she wants to show it, which is her business … people have been doing that since day one … it doesn’t make you a feminist.”
We’re not sure we’re following Sharon’s argument here.
It’s something along the lines of: “Someone told me Kim Kardashian said something she never said, so I responded by calling her a ho. What’s the big deal?”
We can understand how Sharon would be so naive as to go on a misogynistic rant in response to unverified information.
It’s not like the woman’s been famous for decades and wound up involved her own share of messy tabloid dramas.
Seriously, though, we’re beginning to understand why Sharon’s defense of her own comments was so lame.
They’re pretty impossible remarks to justify.

Kim Kardashian Responds to Sharon Osbourne: You Sound Ridiculous!
Sharon Osbourne called Kim Kardashian “just a ho,” blasting Kim for the various topless photos that she’s taken over the years and generally calling her a fake feminist.
Even people who like Sharon Osbourne and have their issues with Kim for one thing or another (and who doesn’t?) got their feathers ruffled over that.
As you can imagine, Kim Kardashian didn’t take that criticism lying down. And now she’s responded. …
As you’ll recall, Sharon Osbourne really went off on the reality star and mobile video game creator.
“Kim says she’s doing everything in the name of feminism, but that’s not feminism!”
Incidentally, both of those statements are false.
“Those girls live off their bodies, half of L.A. has been through them and everything they do from the sex tape to the plastic see-through dresses and the gym wear is about sex, not female progress. And listen: God bless them.”
It’s weird for a woman who just slut-shamed the Kardashians (the “half of L.A. has been through them” line) to then try to talk about “female progress.”
And Sharon doubles down on her controversial stance … and stoops to name-calling.
“If Kim wants to show off her body, fine. But that’s not feminism; that’s being a ho.”
She (correctly) adds that it’s not an insult … but it doesn’t quite sound like she means it.
“And there’s nothing wrong with being a ho, but always remember what you are.”
Ugh.
Taking a break from the Harper’s BAZAAR event, “ICONS by Carine Roitfeld,” Kim Kardashian responded to Sharon Osbourne’s words, telling E! exactly what she thought.
It sounds like Kim is basically embarrassed for Sharon.
“First of all, I think she said I said a quote about, ‘I post nude photos in the name of feminism.’ Never said that. So I think when people misquote you and then comment, it just sounds ridiculous.”
Showing as much or little of your body as you like — controlling how you, as a woman, are viewed — is absolutely feminist.
But yeah, Kim Kardashian might get applauded by fellow celebrities for being empowering in the name of feminism, but that doesn’t mean that Kim herself is waving a feminist flag every time that she climbs a tree with her nip nops out.
“I post nude photos because I like how I look and I feel proud when I’ve lost all this baby weight and I post it because I feel like posting it and I feel powerful.”
And you know what? Good for her.
“But I’ve never been like the ‘free the nipple’ kind of girl.”
That would be, like, Kendall. You see her nips all of the time through the thinnest fabrics.
(Nipples are extra hard to miss when they’re pierced)
“So … if I post a photo, I post it because I like how I look. So she kind of misquoted me on that and I thought it just looked really, like stupid.”
That pretty much sums it up.
We can’t help but wonder if part of what was weighing on Sharon Osbourne’s mind wasn’t the overwhelming burden of Kim Kardashian’s nudity.
We also think that it was more than just Sharon Osbourne happening to be old and perhaps struggling to understand modern feminism.
When Sharon was younger, feminism wasn’t nearly as far along. Remember that there was a time when women couldn’t hold certain jobs or could simply be banned from restaurants during certain hours or forbidden from opening their own bank accounts.
There are many battles that feminism wages for gender equality. It’s important to remember that feminism does have some triumphs in its pocket.
But we wonder if Sharon Osbourne was thinking about what almost made her divorce Ozzy Osbourne before the two reconciled.
Ozzy Osbourne cheated on Sharon — not just with one woman, but with at least six.
It could be that Sharon Osbourne wasn’t feeling very sex positive because, so recently, sex was a threat to her marriage.
We hate to sound like armchair psychologists or whatever, psychoanalyzing Sharon, but this sounds like it could be a strong factor behind her thinking.
Baring skin doesn’t make you a “ho,” it just makes you a person whose meat prison is covered with skin that you decided to show.
Being a “ho,” whether you’re merely promiscuous or genuinely a sex worker, is also not a bad thing. It’s your body and you can do what you like with it.
There are many valid criticisms of Kim Kardashian.
From cultural appropriation to siding with people who are in the wrong to using underhanded tactics while feuding, Kim Kardashian has been accused of plenty. And that’s okay to talk about.
We can even question whether Kim is a good feminist or a bad feminist.
But, while not everyone who bares all has feminist intentions, there’s nothing inherently non-feminist about a woman showing off her body.
We do love Sharon Osbourne. We hope that she’ll come to understand this complicated issue.

Sharon Osbourne: Kim Kardashian is Just a Ho!
Do you ever talk to someone who comes across as trying their best to be a progressive person, but there’s something or another that they just can’t wrap their minds around?
That seems to be the case for Sharon Osbourne, whom we genuinely adore but … we have to admit that what she had to say about Kim Kardashian had us cringing.
Sharon Osbourne has taken aim at Kim Kardashian’s fondness for showing off her body.
At its heart, feminism — like any good social cause — is simple: a quest for gender equality.
That means opposing the patriarchal social values that have infested many cultures for millennia.
Just as LGBT rights and the push for racial equality, the goal is simple and you’d think that it would be almost universal.
Instead, somehow the label of “feminist” is controversial, thanks to an aggressive campaign of misinformation that tends to portray feminists in a certain way.
Even within feminism, there are — of course — many approaches to what is and is not feminist or what does and does not make a good feminist.
Some embrace the empowering concept of femininity.
Others find gender role associations and even gender itself to be limiting.
One factor that’s as divisive within feminism circles as it is everywhere else is sexuality.
And that’s where Sharon Osbourne has a beef with Kim Kardashian.
In a Telegraph interview, Sharon Osbourne attacks Kim Kardashian’s feminist credentials.
“Kim says she’s doing everything in the name of feminism, but that’s not feminism!”
Feminism’s goals may be simple, but a lot of people have very strong disagreements about the right way to get there.
“Those girls live off their bodies, half of L.A. has been through them and everything they do from the sex tape to the plastic see-through dresses and the gym wear is about sex, not female progress.”
Sharon doesn’t seem to have a personal dislike for the Kardashians, though.
“And listen: God bless them.”
But Sharon Osbourne still doubles down on slut-shaming Kim Kardashian.
“If Kim wants to show off her body, fine. But that’s not feminism, that’s being a ho.”
Except that a statement like if Kim wants to show off her body, fine is an inherently feminist statement.
“And there’s nothing wrong with being a ho, but always remember what you are.”
The thing is that Kim Kardashian isn’t even especially promiscuous. These days, she’s a married mom.
Does the way that people dress really define them to the point where a slang word for a sex worker applies to a monogamous mother?
We don’t think so.
Despite all of that, Sharon Osbourne’s definition of feminism is pretty accurate:
“For me, feminist is someone who advocates for the civil and social rights and liberties of all people, regardless of their gender.”
Yep.
“Anyone who believes that women should have the same choices and opportunities as men when it comes to education and employment, their bodies and their lifestyles.”
She even mentions bodies and lifestyles … as if everything that she’d said about Kim Kardashian had been said by someone else. In a dream.
“Of course I want these things! I’m all about empowering and uplifting women.”
Then maybe don’t tear them down for how much skin they show in photos?
“Obviously, there are things about me that people might say make me a feminist.”
Yes. It literally does. That’s how definitions work.
“I work hard, I make my own money, I’m comfortable and confident in my own skin, and I encourage women to be open and honest about their sexuality, and to embrace their beauty and their bodies.”
Part of embracing their beauty and their bodies might mean sharing photos of their flesh prisons without being bashful about it.
Nudity can be a feminist statement, though it doesn’t have to be.
Normalizing female toplessness can absolutely be a feminist statement, since so many people and places (lookin’ at you, Instagram) seem terrified of a woman’s nipples.
“But why do we have to put labels on things?”
Because labels are helpful, Sharon.
“You’re Republican, you’re Democrat, you’re bisexual, you’re plus-size, you’re poor, you’re a criminal, you’re a mother, you’re a feminist. I’m a human being, and I have thoughts, feelings and opinions about a lot of different things.”
In the past, Sharon has clarified that she is a feminist at heart but that she isn’t fond of labels. To each their own, we guess.
Kim Kardashian is a feminist. Whether or not she’s a good feminist is up for debate.
But really none of that has to do with the fact that the world has seen her badonkadonk.
It’s interesting that Sharon should say this, because Ozzy Osbourne had a whole bunch of mistresses (at least six) but Sharon is staying with him.
That’s right — even though Sharon initially split from Ozzy when she found out that he had been cheating on her, they reconciled and even renewed their vows earlier this year.
Some would say that this doesn’t make her a good feminist.
Honestly, what we think is that maybe Sharon is too set in her ways to understand how liberating some women find it to show off their bodies in ways that they control.
As we said, Kim Kardashian might make money off her body and she might have some very problematic elements that make her a less-than-perfect feminist, but she’s a feminist.

Lisa and Jack Osbourne: Pregnant With Baby Number 3!
It looks like the Osbourne family is about to add one more member!
Jack Osbourne, son of Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne, and his wife Lisa want the world to know that Lisa is pregnant.
Not only are they sharing that they’re expecting, but Lisa Osbourne snapped a mirror selfie and it flaunts her very apparent baby bump.
The couple already has two children, so this will be their third.
As we’re sure that you remember, Jack and Lisa Osbourne welcomed their second daughter in June of 2015.
It’s been just over two years, so most would say that this is pretty ideal spacing for siblings.
(Personally I lean more towards recommending a, like, four-year spacing between siblings, but different families work with different dynamics)
Jack and Lisa welcomed their first daughter into the world in April of 2012.
And here’s their photo with their new announcement!
Lisa captioned this photo:
“Literally ate the biggest burrito ever.”
We love a good sense of humor. … Also we could really go for a burrito right about now.
Have you ever seen one of those cards that someone made by buying a random card at the grocery store and very obviously crossing out a word and replacing it with another?
Like: “Look who’s turning Christmas!” on a card that was originally designed to congratulate someone on their second birthday.
Well, all that we could think when we first saw this photo was “Look who’s turning pregnant!”
After a moment, though, we noticed Lisa’s phone.
She has a pill bottle phone cover and now we’re sorely missing Carrie Fisher (though, on some level, aren’t we all still missing Carrie every minute of every day?)
When we think of the Osbournes, we think of three things.
Sharon Osbourne, of course, is so endearing — we tend to love her on The Talk and elsewhere.
Kelly Osbourne is precious, whether she’s doing talk shows or guest judging RuPaul’s Drag Race or pretty much anywhere that she can just be herself.
Ozzy Osbourne’s music might not be our style, and his wandering eyes (amongst other parts) clearly hurt Sharon deeply, but we’ll always fondly remember his goofy World of Warcraft commercials.
(Those were about a decade ago, back when that game was relevant and eminently playable, where now it’s woefully dated and every time that we hear about the current plot, it sounds like it’s gone more and more off the rails)
Jack and his wife Lisa haven’t made quite as big of a splash, but some people — even reality stars whose parents and siblings are extremely famous — prefer to keep a lower profile.
If Lisa looks a little far along to only just now be announcing the news, consider this:
It was about four years ago, in September of 2013 when their oldest daughter was 16 months old, that Lisa Osbourse suffered a miscarriage.
We’re sure that it was for this reason that the couple waited so long to announce their pregnancy.
Miscarriages happen, and they can be tragic enough on their own.
Having to inform family, friends, and the public about it only compounds the grief that the parents feel.
We hope that this pregnancy is without complications, though.
