Sharon Osbourne hates the "hurtful" criticism directed at her children's appearances.

The TV star - who has three grown-up children, Aimee, Kelly and Jack, with her rocker husband Ozzy Osbourne - never thought her offspring would grow up to be natural beauties but thinks it is appalling that they are attacked over their looks.

She told The Guardian: "When it's my kids, it's a different story. It was so hurtful what they said about Kelly and Jack about the way they look. We're Sharon and Ozzy: I'm half a Jew, he's a little bloke from Birmingham. We're not going to produce 6ft tall, blonde stunners."

In 2002, Sharon was so riled by comments an American journalist made about Kelly and Jack, she sent the reporter a Tiffany jewellery box filled with her own feces.

She recalled: "They said my kids were fat. So f**k them. I sued four newspapers last year. Why? I got pissed off. There's a lot of juicy s**t that's real without having to make it up. If there's bad stuff to be said about me, I'll say it first. I'm truthful that way."
