The pair were together for decades. With their wedding anniversary a few days ago, Sharon Osbourne took a moment to look back at the life and the love she shared with her dear husband.

They Had Many Ups and Downs Over the Years
Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne dealt with many big obstacles during their long marriage.

The pair were parents to three children - Jack, Aimee, and Kelly. Together, Sharon and Ozzy weathered health issues, addiction problems, and more. All the tough times seemed to only strengthen their bond of love and respect.
