She went on to confess that she first took Vicodin at just 13-years-old.
“I kept getting sick and I had a really bad case of tonsillitis,” the TV personality explained.
“They ended up having to give me some crazy surgery and then, after that, they gave me Vicodin and that was all I needed.”
During the interview, Kelly also opened up about her struggle with weight-loss and her personal confidence after she got sober.
“And then I gained so much weight, so I thought that everyone was just looking at me like, ‘She’s fat and disgusting.’ People were taking pictures of me and I could see them. ‘Look at how fat Kelly Osbourne is now.’ So, it’s like you have to get in touch with vulnerabilities and things that trigger you,” she explained.
“Like, I never went to work sober. I never went to dinner sober. I didn’t do anything sober. Like, nothing sober.”
