It's been an interesting week following the drama of Ozzy Osbourne's personal life. While we learned that Ozzy and Sharon have officially gotten back together, there was still the matter of Ozzy's mistress, Michelle Pugh, suing Ozzy's daughter Kelly for defamation after Kelly posted some scathing tweets and revealed Pugh's phone number.
Late last week, Pugh's complaint surfaced on People.com, where Pugh claimed that Kelly was stirring up controversy for her memoir in lashing out at Pugh. Pugh claims the emotional distress line saying she was the victim of bullying after Kelly's outburst. Here are some highlights:
According to the court documents, Pugh claims Kelly used her Twitter account to "paint a target" on Pugh's back "as a publicity stunt for financial gain" by tweeting out Pugh's direct phone number and accusing her of "elder abuse" when news of the affair was breaking in May.
Pugh claims Kelly "violated her right to privacy," impacted her ability to obtain work and caused her "severe emotional distress."
The complaint also takes aim at Ozzy, claiming he led Pugh to believe he was preparing to divorce Sharon and "continually wooed [her] with false promises and false representations as well as requiring complete discretion regarding their relationship."
Pugh also alleges that Ozzy moving out of the family home in early May was "due to Sharon and Ozzy's arguments involving financial issues and control, not Ozzy's infidelity."
"You happen to meet someone and you have an amazing connection and it's not desirable to act upon it. End of story," she said. "Do I realize that certain people will not understand? Yes. I am not asking for anyone's approval."
"Love is never a mistake," she said. "Even when it's messy and even when it hurts."
It's a bit ridiculous that Ozzy's lies to Pugh would be listed in this claim. Isn't that the type of thing any cheating husband tells his mistress? Is that really illegal?
Regardless, today, People reports that Pugh and the Osbourne camp have settled the complaint privately (Read: the Osbournes coughed up a good amount of cash to Pugh). So I guess she did get something out of her relationship with Ozzy after all.
