Kelly Osbourne has long been candid about her struggles with addiction and now she’s detailed how she got addicted to heroin as a teenager.

In a sneak peek of the TV star’s upcoming appearance on Red Table Talk this week, Osbourne told Jada Pinkett Smith, that her battle with drugs and alcohol began when she was prescribed prescription drugs at 13-years-old.

“I had a really bad case of tonsillitis. They ended up having to give me some crazy surgery and after that they gave me vicodin and that was all I needed,” she told the Pinkett-Smith clan.

“I went from having every voice in my head being like, ‘You’re fat, you’re ugly, you’re not good enough, no one likes you, you don't deserve this, people only like you because of who your parents are,’ and then all of a sudden every single voice was silenced and it felt life gave me a hug,” the 36-year-old shared.

When asked how old she was when she was given the drug. She replied, ‘Thirteen.’

The former Fashion Police star continued, “I was like, ‘Why am I so confident in all of this?’ and then very quickly it went from vicodin to percocet from percocet to heroin essentially, because it was cheaper.”
