southsider2k5 Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Prince Charles -- already under a cloud after the revelation that the late Princess Diana claimed he wanted her dead -- isn’t doing much for Ozzy Osbourne’s health, either. The prince sent a bottle of scotch to Osbourne, who is recovering from injuries he sustained when his ATV crashed. The aging rocker is also a recovering alcoholic, who completely avoids alcohol. “The Osbournes weren’t offended by it,” says a source. “It’s fine scotch. It will be drunk, but Ozzy won’t get any.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 That's like sending Micheal Jackson a bunch of Boy Scouts to help him in his time of need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 That's a really cruel thing to do to a recovering alcoholic. A few years ago, my aunt (mom's sister) invited my dad's brother to Thanksgiving dinner. My father and uncle are both recovering alcoholics. She offered them wine. My uncle has yet to go to accept another Thanksgiving invite. (My dad just laughed it off.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted January 14, 2004 Share Posted January 14, 2004 Ignorance and cruelty are two different things. JMO.. but I doubt he's either. I can't imagine that Chuck bothers himself with the details of Ozzy's personal life.. and I doubt even more that he's a "fan" and knows of Ozzy's history.

I'm not saying HisRoyalHighness is ignorant, in general, but it would be understandable that he was ignorant to this aspect of the Ozman's life.

I know she didn't, but it was a really uncomfortable situation for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
