Clarification on Amanda Holden’s Saturday Night Takeaway Absence Amidst Sharon Osbourne Disagreement Rumors

The two well-known TV personalities certainly went into a feud, but it doesn’t look like Amanda Holden’s absence from Saturday Night Takeaway was because of that.

Amanda Holden’s Absence Sparks Speculation

Last Saturday’s episode of ITV’s Saturday Night Takeaway proved to be confusing to viewers as Amanda Holden was listed as a special guest in the end credits section but never made an appearance during the show. This gave rise to rumors that Holden had left the show as a result of his public feud with former X Factor judge, Sharon Osbourne.

The rift between Holden and Osbourne became more conspicuous the previous day when Osbourne took to social media to angrily respond to an interview that Holden gave. In the interview, Holden had attacked Osbourne and ex X Factor judge Louis Walsh for their remarks about Simon Cowell during Celebrity Big Brother.

Osbourne Takes a Dig on Twitter

Osbourne reminded Holden in her long messages on Twitter that her popularity and success was not because of Cowell’s talent shows as X Factor, but instead it was their family reality show “The Osbournes” and her music career prior to the X Factor. Additionally, Osbourne spoke directly to Holden: we would never coexist in the same lane.

On the other hand, a spokesperson for Amanda Holden has now spoken about her not being present during Saturday Night Takeaway. They said that his not showing up was for “scheduling changes” and that it was “no way” about the public argument that she had earlier that day with Sharon Osbourne.

The two well-known TV personalities certainly went into a feud, but it doesn’t look like Amanda Holden’s absence from the Saturday Night Takeaway was because of that. Her representatives confirmed that she did not attend due to changes in her program, not because of any backstage drama.

Conclusion

Although the public bust-up between Amanda Holden and Sharon Osbourne featured on front pages, it seems that the feud had nothing to do with Holden’s disappearance from the Saturday Night Takeaway. Her representatives have clearly and directly explained that it was not because of any scheduling conflicts, fallout from the on-going disagreements or backstage drama between her and Osbourne but due to the changes in the schedule.

This shows how, many times, the stories circulating online about the real reason behind a celebrity’s departure from a public appearance or event on TV may not be accurate. It is sensibly wise to wait for official accounts from the parties involved before you pass any judgment.

With that in mind, let’s hope and pray that Holden and Osbourne are able to professionally resolve the differences in an amicable manner. Being two high profile figures in the entertainment industry, they both need to set their individual problems aside and concentrate on their own careers. In general, the spectators can be satisfied without the competitions between the talented celebrities because these are the celebrities that keep the art amazing.
