Wife Sharon broke down in tears yesterday as thousands of fans lined the streets of her soul mate husband's hometown of Birmingham for the coffin procession.
She was supported by their children Jack, 39, Kelly, 40 and Aimee, 41, and Ozzy's son Louis, 50, as they walked to a memorial carrying purple flowers.
The rocker's being laid to rest today at the family's multi-million-pound mansion in Welders, Buckinghamshire.
It comes after pals said Sharon wanted to bury Ozzy in the garden following his death on Tuesday.
Roads leading into the mega pile have been closed off.
A source said: 'Sharon and the family want to celebrate Ozzy's life with his fans, with plans for the cortege to travel through Birmingham.
'Tomorrow they will have a closed service at a church in Gerrards Cross, Bucks."
Ozzy died at home in his stunning mansion in Welders, Buckinghamshire "surrounded by love".
The icon became known as the "Prince of Darkness" in his six-decade career thanks to his on-stage antics that attracted a legion of heavy rock fans.
His death drew condolences from stars including Sir Rod Stewart, Noel Gallagher and Sir Elton John.

A source told The Mirror this week: "It's a lovely house and Sharon wanted to bring him back from LA.
"I don't know if she will feel strong enough to have a big memorial for all the people who want to say goodbye to him.
"We think she may want to bury him privately at home, in the garden."
Earlier this month, the rocker played at Villa Park - reuniting with his bandmates on stage for the first time in 20 years.
Three years ago, Ozzy and wife Sharon were given the green light by the council to transform their historic Buckinghamshire home to include a new adjoining mega-extension solely for the Black Sabbath frontman.
The Sun previously revealled that the rehab wing is as huge as the historic Grade II-listed home.

The actress clearly has acting running through her veins as her dad has had a career as an actor and filmmaker, spanning over six decades. He played Clyde Barrow in the hit crime film Bonnie and Clyde in 1967 and also produced the project also. Meanwhile, her mum has starred in 1999 classic American Beauty and superhero film Captain Marvel which released in 2019.

Ella made her foray into the acting world last year with a recurring role in the FX on Hulu anthology series Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, also directed American Horror Story creator Ryan. Proving she's a chip off of the old block, she starred on the big screen in A24 drama If I Had Legs I'd Kick You which released earlier this year and made her Broadway debut in Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' plays Appropriate. Ella's dad Warren, 88, made his own acting debut as a teenager in love in the Elia Kazan drama Splendor in the Grass in 1961. His illustrious career has seen him win an Academy Award, three Golden Globe Awards and the BAFTA Fellowship in 2002. He's also been nominated for 14 Academy Awards in total including four for Best Actor, four for Best Picture and two for Best Director.

Warren and Annette met in November 1990 while working on the film Bugsy, where they were playing love interests.

The pair met for lunch to discuss the part and ended up connecting both professionally and personally. The two tied the knot in 1992 and went on to have four children together, Stephen, 33, Benjamin, 30, Isabel, 28 and Ella. 4 Ella is the daughter of Hollywood royalty Warren Beatty and Annette Bening Credit: AFP

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau spotted on 'dinner date' after Orlando Bloom split The Lord Of The Rings alum commented on an Instagram post by The Onion which featured an AI image of him having dinner with ex German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The caption joked how the pair were spotted "sipping wine and slurping oysters." They also joked how he "couldn't keep his eyes off" the politician. Clearly appreciating the tongue in cheek reference to his baby momma, he posted three hand clap Emoji icons underneath. PERRY WORRYING Earlier this year, Roar hitmaker Katy was said to have already told pals their relationship was as good as done - as reports claimed Orlando "won't win her back." Yet pals of the chart star have been quick to express their concern. Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau Spark Romance Rumors with Surprise Dinner in Montreal "Katy's friends want her to have fun after her split from Orlando, but she's still very much grieving the end of their relationship and the fact that she never made it down the aisle," an insider told The U.S. Sun. "They don't want her to rush into something serious, and have heard Justin has a bit of a reputation as a womanizer, and that he loves the fame game. "It is still a very new flirty friendship, but friends are hoping she takes it slow with the next person and chooses a man who loves her for her." A second source added to us: "Justin isn't a guy who is easy to 'catch' and he has been having a lot of women trying to date him since he separated from his wife. Katy Perry & Orlando Bloom's Relationship Timeline Fans have followed Katy and Orlando's relationship since it began in 2016. Here's a breakdown of their romance. The lovebirds met in January 2016 at a Golden Globes afterparty. That May, the pair made their relationship Instagram official. Katy and Orlando broke up in February 2017, which their reps confirmed after fans noticed they kept their distance at the Vanity Fair Oscars party. They reunited a year later on vacation in Prague. In September 2018, the duo made their red carpet debut at the Gala for the Global Ocean at the Opera of Monte-Carlo in Monaco. Orlando popped the question on Valentine's Day the following year. In March 2019, Orlando revealed he sold his home and had moved in with Katy. In March 2020, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together, whom they welcomed on August 26. Shortly before their daughter Daisy Dove's second birthday, Katy teased that she wanted to have more children with her fiance. In May 2024, Katy had fans convinced she was pregnant again when she posted a photo of her holding a positive pregnancy test. She followed with throwback photos and videos of her sharing the news of her first pregnancy. "He is someone that has some particular preferences, and he enjoys people who are genuinely nice and that see life in their own way. "Katy has her own 'world' and she is someone who is an extrovert, and she loves to talk about many different topics, and he really loves that." The Canadian's wild family history was also put under the spotlight recently following their "date." SPLIT REVEAL It has previously been claimed that Orlando's former fiance Katy - who is on tour in Australia - had told her mates their engagement was over at the start of the year, before removing her engagement ring. The pair share daughter Daisy Dove Bloom, aged four. A source close to the couple said at the time: 'Katy confided in friends at the start of the year that their relationship was as good as done. 'They decided to hold off on announcing anything in case things improved between them, because they are desperate to stay together for the sake of their daughter. "But they have spent barely any time together this year, with Katy on tour and Orlando working on his upcoming film Bucking Fastard in Dublin. 'She knew that taking off her engagement ring would send a clear message. 'It's been a hard year so far. They wanted to wait until the tour is over before they made their split official, although Katy has grown tired of the situation.' The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. However, The Sun understands they had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January but struggled to make a firm decision. 7 Justin was also spotted at Katy Perry's Montreal concert dancing and singing this week Credit: @ridmi/TMX 7 Yet pals of the popstar have expressed concern over her new connection Credit: Instagram/katyperry

Star of hit 70s TV show looks very different as she makes rare appearance – can you tell who it is?
It comes as she spoke out on playing her 'dull' role double take Star of hit 70s TV show looks very different as she makes rare appearance – can you tell who it is? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SEVENTIES TV star looked completely unrecognizable as she stepped out to run errands in Los Angeles. The iconic small screen actress dressed down in red shorts, a black logo top and sandals as she enjoyed a day in the sunshine. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 6 A Seventies TV star looked completely unrecognisable as she stepped out in Los Angeles Credit: The Mega Agency 6 She exited her white SUV in red shorts, a black top and sandals Credit: The Mega Agency 6 Susan Olsen is best known for her role as Cindy Brady in The Brady Bunch Credit: Getty Leaving her hair in loose waves, she pulled on a pair of sunglasses and slung a bag over her shoulder. Susan Olsen, famed for her role in The Brady Bunch, was seen clutching her car keys as she exited her white SUV. The 63-year-old juggled a bunch of papers under her left arm as she made her way around town. Her very different look to her Brady Bunch role - which saw her playing youngest Brady child Cindy - came after her former co-star Maureen McCormick also left fans doing a double take with her look. Susan and Maureen, as well as Mike Lookinland, Eve Plumb, Christopher Knight and Barry Williams starred as the siblings in the US sitcom from 1969 to 1974 and then reunited for the reboot. Santa Monica born Susan - who was aged seven when she was cast in her plum TV role - was often seen on-screen with her blonde locks tied into to pig tails for her five years on the series. SUSAN'S TAKE Susan has previously spoken out about her tendency to play "dull" roles in her career. She previously said: "That's just how my career was and it was something I had to accept." The Brady Bunch was a massive hit for five years from 1969 She also opened up to the Real Brady Bros podcast about a scary incident on set. It saw the child star hit with a piece of equipment while she was having her make-up done prior to the show's pilot episode. She said of the aftermath: "My eyes were black. "I mean, I had two black eyes. My nose was swollen. My face was swollen." She added: "The saddest news is that we didn't sue Paramount, because I would have made more off of that than the show.' Meanwhile, her former Brady Bunch co-star Maureen has opened up on the prospect of a series reboot. Maureen recently told People: "It's so hard to do a reboot or a remake of something. "So I feel very protective of it in a way. It has such great memories for so many people, but it would just have to absolutely knock my socks off for me to want to do anything with it. I would know in my heart. "But it was such an incredible show to be a part of, and my best memories of the show are the people, the crew, and their families." OTHER PROJECTS Susan also appeared on Space Ghost Coast To Coast, Blending Christmas, The Young And The Restless and Gimmie My Reality Show to name a few. Film-wise, she featured in 2009 flick Zombo and in 2015, in Mamam Claus, Deck The Halls With Guts. Away from TV, she has been the spokesperson for the Sindy doll and also for migraine sufferers. 6 The Santa Monica born star played the youngest Brady child Credit: Paramount 6 Susan, 63, has spoken out about being typecast for 'dull' roles Credit: Getty
