SHARON Osbourne will dish on her controversial The Talk exit on Real Time with Bill Maher on April 16.
It will be the commentator’s first interview since she departed the CBS show in March.
What time is Sharon Osbourne on Bill Maher tonight?
Sharon Osbourne will be a guest on the April 16 episode of Real Time with Bill Maher, which airs at 10 pm on HBO.
Osbourne quit The Talk after having an on-air fight with co-host Sheryl Underwood.
She was criticized for what was perceived to be racially insensitive comments she made while defending Piers Morgan’s slam of Meghan Markle.
Morgan, the British TV personality, had said that he “didn’t believe a word” Markle said during her interview with Oprah Winfrey.
The commentator would abruptly depart from the long-running Good Morning Britain program after bashing Markle.
The Markle interview aired in the US on March 7. Osbourne addressed her decision to stand by Piers on the March 10 episode of The Talk, and a verbal squabble with Underwood broke out.
Sharon told her co-hosts: “Why is it that because I supported a longtime friend and work colleague for years, people go ‘well you must be racist because he’s racist.’
“No. I support his freedom of speech. I’m not racist and neither is Piers racist.
“What have I ever said about anybody that’s racist? It’s not within me. It’s not in my soul.”
A source told The Sun following the argument that both sides initially “refused to apologize,” though Sharon later did issue an apology on her Instagram page following the argument.
CBS later announced Osbourne had quit the show.
“Sharon Osbourne has decided to leave The Talk,” the network said.
“The events of the March 10 broadcast were upsetting to everyone involved, including the audience watching at home.”
