Sharon Osbourne will get to talk “The Talk” when she breaks her silence about her unceremonious exit from the Emmy Award-winning CBS chatfest.

The embattled British television personality, who was an original cast member of the daytime talk show, is scheduled to explain her side of the controversy on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” April 16.

On Wednesday, the premium cable giant confirmed Osborune’s in-studio appearance – her first extended television interview following the events that caused “The Talk” to go on an extended hiatus amid her racially charged meltdown.

According to Deadline, the solo interview is set to air at the top of the hour-long show.

Political scientist and author Ian Bremmer and Georgetown University law professor Rosa Brooks will also appear as guests on the show alongside Osbourne. She should feel at home with Maher, the pugnacious comedian who infamously referred to former president Barack Obama as the n-word in 2017.

The 68-year-old reality TV-famous family matriarch ignited a controversy March 10 during an intense debate with fellow host Sheryl Underwood about racism versus freedom of speech amid her friend Piers Morgan’s blistering attacks against runaway royal Meghan Markle.

Osbourne vehemently defended the embattled British broadcaster, and during her heated confrontation with Underwood, Osbourne told the comedienne and Air Force veteran not to cry and demanded she educate her about racism.

After major blowback, the outspoken spouse of heavy metal icon Ozzy Osbourne apologized to the Black community on social media and later claimed she was set up by CBS, ambushed by producers, and then blamed “cancel culture” for the fallout in an interview with “Entertainment Tonight” anchor Kevin Frazier.

Her former “The Talk” co-hosts Leah Remini and Holly Robinson Peete also came forward with alleged prior racist acts by Osbourne.
