Melissa Rivers Releases Statement Regarding Kelly Osbourne's Departure from 'Fashion Police'

Kelly Osbourne has decided to walk away as co-host of the hit E! show Fashion Police after a long week of drama surrounding Giuliana Rancic's comments about Zendaya's dreadlocks she wore during the red carpet of the Oscars last Sunday.

After news broke out that Osbourne quit, Fashion Police executive producer, Melissa Rivers made the following statement:

"Kelly Osbourne is a friend and has been a wonderful part of the Fashion Police family. I will miss her terribly and wish her the very best in all of her future endeavors. As my mother always said, the show must go on and I plan to continue in the same spirit."

According to TMZ, Osbourne has been at war with the producers before the Rancic "weed" comments erupted on Monday.

The gossip site claims that a number of insiders said the producers and Kelly weren't getting along before this week's ordeal where Osbourne threatened to quit.

The site revealed that there was some issues during the first episode that was produced after Joan Rivers died. Osbourne wasn't pleased with the direction the show decided to tape that episode.

Looks like Osbourne reached her boiling point on Friday, and walked out.

 Kelly Osbourne Quit Fashion Police - Via TMZ - "Multiple sources connected with the show tell us ... producers and Kelly were at odds even before the Giuliana Rancic showdown, where Kelly threatened to quit unless Giuliana apologized over her comments about Zendaya on the red carpet at the Oscars. We're told the tension started over the first episode the cast taped without Joan Rivers. Kelly was unhappy with the way the show was being produced. Producers, we're told, were "up to here" with Kelly so the handwriting was on the wall." #fashionpolice #kellyosbourne
