THE Talk's Sharon Osbourne ripped Sheryl Underwood's claim she never apologized following their now infamous on-air fight.
The duo found themselves in a heated discussion after the British personality supported Piers Morgan's brutal comments about Meghan Markle.
According to , Sharon claimed that she indeed apologize to Sheryl, as she released screenshots of text messages that were allegedly sent to her co-host.
She told the outlet: "I not only sent these messages to Sheryl but I apologized to her in person in her dressing room."
She continued: "Why are you saying I never apologized Sheryl? What are you trying to do to me?
"Why are you trying to destroy my reputation? Just be honest. Tell me."
In the first message, shared to the outlet, dated two days after the on-air fight, , 68, wrote: "Sheryl, My heart is heavy and I'm deeply saddened by the events that transpired on Wednesday.
"I don't want to lose my true friend over this. Im sorry for telling you to f**k off during break, I'm sorry for accusing you of fake crying while we were live on air and I'm sorry for losing my temper with you.
"I felt shocked, scared and saddened by what felt like was a blind sided attack. You know me. You know how I've always had your back. We've outlasted everyone on this show and that's because we've always been a team and had each other's backs."
She added: "I consider you a genuine friend. If you want to talk on the phone over the weekend I'm here. Once again from the bottom of my heart I'm sorry.
"Is there anything You need from me or that I can do to help you heal? Love and respect always - Sharon."

"It's not about the reaction of the person, it's about me and who I'm trying to evolve and mature to be."
Sheryl also expressed regret about the controversy.
