X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne decided not to attend her father's funeral yesterday.

Osbourne brought Don Arden's body back from Los Angeles to London, but could not attend his Manchester funeral because she felt "too traumatised".

A family friend told The Mirror: "As you can imagine Sharon is very upset about her father's death and was simply too traumatised to attend the funeral."

Sharon was estranged from her father for 20 years, before they reunited in 2002 when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease.
