The 'X Factor' judge was left heartbroken earlier this year when she found out the Black Sabbath rocker had been having an affair with a hairdresser but, despite the initial anger, she believes the ordeal has brought her closer to him.

Speaking to The Sun newspaper, she said: "I adore Ozzy."

The 63-year-old television host - who married the singer in 1982 and has three children Aimee, 33, Kelly, 31, and Jack, 30, with him - is desperately trying to control her anger.

Asked how she's dealing with the infidelity, she said: "I am trying to learn [not to get so angry]- I try to not let things faze me. Before I was like [she makes a loud roar], 'How dare they this and how dare they that.'

"I was riled up at the slightest thing and then you realise as you get older that all these things aren't really important."

Sharon has had a difficult few years, as just before she temporarily split from the 67-year-old rocker earlier this year she suffered a mental breakdown but she felt too "flat" to seek help.

She said recently: "I had given up. I just couldn't deal. At a very low point in my life, I was very frightened about what was going on with me mentally and the thoughts that were going into my head constantly. These thoughts coming into my head and pictures and people's faces and I couldn't control my head, but I couldn't verbalise it.

"I just didn't have the strength to even say I need help, help me because I just couldn't talk I was just flat, gone."

And despite her disbelief at her spouse cheating on her for six months, she believes she owes Ozzy a lot because he was the one that got her to the hospital and saved her life.

She explained: "It was Ozzy that got me to the hospital."
