But Shepherd tempered her teasing with an olive branch, saying, “cutting @KellyOsbourne a little slack, bc I’ve done it myself … sometimes isht comes out of your mouth live that you didn’t mean to say.”
She went on to add,
It's okay @KellyOsbourne … @GiulianaRancic did same … sometimes we say dumb stuff & regret it but hope we have friends who understand

Osbourne has since apologized for her remarks.
Shepherd is slated to return her cohost duties to The View this fall.
