Ozzy Osbourne ‘surrounded by love' and family when he died

Ozzy Osbourne spent his final moments with his loved ones before he died Tuesday morning. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love,' his wife, Sharon Osbourne, and his kids, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis, confirmed in a joint statement obtained by Page Six Tuesday. 'We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time,' the statement continued In the same statement, the Black Sabbath singer's family confirmed that he had died Tuesday morning. He was 76. 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,' they said. Earlier this month, the 'No More Tears' artist had performed his last concert with Black Sabbath. Fans were concerned for Ozzy's health in early July when AI videos claiming that he was dying had circulated online. Kelly swiftly shut down rumors. The rock star has had health issues for years now and revealed in January 2020 that he had secretly been battling Parkinson's disease for more than 15 years. There is no known cure for the movement disorder of the nervous system, which often worsens over time, according to the Mayo Clinic. Ozzy was also living in pain after sustaining horrible neck injuries from a 2003 quad biking accident. In May 2022, the heavy metal star shared that he could no longer 'walk properly' and would be undergoing a 'life-altering' neck surgery. After the procedure, Ozzy shared that his walking had improved as he could 'hold [his] head up' and he returned to the stage for an NFL halftime show in September 2022. By the following year, Ozzy announced that he would no longer be touring amid rising health concerns. 'Never would have imagined that my touring days would have ended this way,' he shared in a statement at the time. 'I have now come to the realization that I'm not physically capable of doing my upcoming European/UK tour dates, as I know I couldn't deal with the travel required,' he added. Ozzy and his Black Sabbath bandmates performed alongside Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Jack Black and other rockers in Birmingham, England earlier this month, marking the musician's last gig before his passing. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer married Sharon in 1982. They shared three kids: Aimee, 41, Kelly, 40, and Jack, 39. Ozzy was also married to Thelma Riley — with whom he shared kids Elliot, 59, Jessica, 53, and Louis, 50 — from 1971 to 1982. Solve the daily Crossword

Ozzy Osbourne is seen just two days before his death in a final heartwarming video having breakfast with his family

Ozzy Osbourne was seen spending time with his family in a sweet final video shared just two days before his death aged 76. The music legend died on Tuesday just weeks after he took to the stage for his final show with Black Sabbath, with his family confirming the sad news in a statement. Ozzy's daughter Kelly Osbourne, 40, shared the video with fans on her Instagram Story on July 20, just two days before the singer died. In the clip, Ozzy was sat at a kitchen table using his tablet while spending time with his youngest daughter and her two-year-old son Sidney. The trio were enjoying breakfast together while reading the newspapers, including the Daily Mail which was spread out on the table. Kelly said: 'Good morning', before panning the camera to her father who was wearing a pair of headphones as she said, 'Dadda, say good morning'. Ozzy leaned forward and replied, 'Good morning'. Ozzy passed away on Tuesday, just weeks after he took to the stage for a final performance with his band in Villa Park, Birmingham. The Osbourne family said in a statement: 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.'Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.' Ozzy was born John Michael Osbourne in Birmingham in 1948, and dropped out of school at the age of 15. After serving two months in prison for burglary, he decided to pursue his love of music and by 1970 Black Sabbath had gained a huge following in the US and UK with the release of their first album. Ozzy quit the band in 1978 and divorced his first wife Thelma Mayfair, who he had two children with, four years later, amid his ongoing substance abuse problems. He went on to marry second wife Sharon Osbourne, who helped him transform into a successful solo artist and the couple had three children together. In the clip, Ozzy was sat at a kitchen table using his tablet while spending time with his youngest daughter and her two-year-old son Sidney over breakfast Ozzy gained a whole new audience of fans with the family's reality TV show The Osbournes in 2001. He is survived by his wife Sharon and his five children, Jessica, Louis, Aimee, Kelly and Jack. The Black Sabbath legend had been suffering from Parkinson's disease since 2003 and had undergone seven surgeries in the past five years, including a fourth spinal surgery in September 2023. His health battle began more than two decade ago, when in 2003, he broke his neck after falling off a quad bike leading to some extensive back surgery and metal rods being put down his spine. The British musician was diagnosed with a mild form of Parkinson's disease in 2003, however he only went public with the condition in 2020. However, Ozzy previously said that his biggest struggles were due to a fall which he suffered in 2019 which caused metal rods in his back to dislodge. The rods had been put there following a quad bike accident at his Buckinghamshire home in 2003. He told Rolling Stone UK magazine: 'The second surgery went drastically wrong and virtually left me crippled. 'I thought I'd be up and running after the second and third, but with the last one they put a f*ing rod in my spine. 'They found a tumour in one of the vertebrae, so they had to dig all that out too. It's pretty rough, man, and my balance is all f*ed up.' The illness led to him cancelling a string of tour dates while he recovered, including postponing the UK and European legs of his No More Tours 2. Ahead of his final live performance in July 2025, which was a benefit concert in Birmingham, Ozzy gave an update on his health status and state of mind. Speaking on SiriusXM's Ozzy's Boneyard, he said: 'You know what, I go on about the way I can't walk and I can't do this, but you know what I was thinking over the holidays? For all of my complaining, I'm still alive.' He continued: 'I may be moaning about how I can't walk as well but as I look down the road, there's people that didn't do half as much as me, and they didn't make it.' 'I'm trying to get back on my feet.' Host Billy Morrison added: 'Ozzy, you are so much better than you were just a year ago.' He replied: 'Yeah, but the recovery is very slow. That f***ing surgeon. Plus the Parkinson's. When you get up in the morning, you just jump outta bed. Oh I have to balance myself, you know? But you know, I'm not dead, as you say. I'm still actively doing things.' Also ahead of the gig, Ozzy's wife Sharon revealed: 'Ozzy's working with his therapist every single day. He's doing really well, actually. Ozzy's number one thing in life is his fans, so he's working hard to be ready for them, to make this show the perfect way to end things.'

'I spent decades of my life being an absolute idiot. I've got so many regrets I can't even remember half of them. But wives and kids are right at the top. It's pointless even saying sorry.

And I said, 'What have you ever f—g wanted? I'll give you whatever you want,'' Ozzy recalled to Variety. 'He says, 'What about a father?' That kicked me in the balls so hard. It knocked me sideways. I went, 'Oh, my God.' I'd give whatever materialistic things they ever wanted. But the most important person wasn't there.' Weeks before his last Black Sabbath show, he opened up about the possibilities of another reunion tour and confessed that he wants his last moments with his family. He told The Guardian, 'But it's time for me to spend some time with my grandkids, I don't want to die in a hotel room somewhere. I want to spend the rest of my life with my family.' Elliot Kingsley Elliot Kingsley is Ozzy Osbourne's adopted son from Thelma Riley's first marriage. Not much is known about him since he has no social media accounts. Jessica Starshine Osbourne Jessica Starshine Osbourne is Ozzy Osbourne's first biological child with Thelma Riley. She wasn't particularly close to her father during her formative years. In the 2011 documentary God Bless Ozzy Osbourne, she recounted, 'I don't remember being put to bed or having a bath by dad or anything like that,' she revealed (via the Daily Mail). 'I wouldn't say he was there for us, no—never on sports day, school trip, parents' evening. He wasn't like that, no.' Despite not being in the family statement, Jessica shared a post on her Instagram story writing, 'RIP OZZY,' and the background played her dad's 1980 hit 'Crazy Train.' Louis Osbourne Louis Osbourne is Ozzy Osbourne's second child with Thelma Riley. He's also chosen to live a more private life, and he works as an executive at Mija Recordings, which he founded in 2009. ' He was present at the final Black Sabbath show on July 5, 2025, just weeks before his dad's death. The audience showed him all the love that you'd expect and him back to them. An emotional end to a phenomenal 57 year career,' Louis wrote on Facebook after the show, per BBC. 'I had been anxious for months about this as I've been worried about my dad's ability to perform with his Parkinson's disease. I just wanted it to be a dignified send off for him. But as soon as he started singing we knew he was gonna nail it,' he added. On the day his father died, he changed his Facebook profile picture to a black square. Aimee Osbourne Aimee Osbourne is Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's first child together. She was born on September 2, 1983. Like her father, she has a career in music as the frontperson of her band ARO. She notably didn't appear in her family's reality TV show and moved out as a result. '[Aimee] felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera. She hated the idea — it was appalling to her,' Sharon said on The Talk in 2018, per People. 'And so she left at 16 and I regret every day that she did.' Kelly Osbourne Kelly Osbourne was the second-born daughter of Ozzy & Sharon Osbourne. She catapulted into fame after she starred in their family reality show The Osbournes. She appeared on Dancing with the Stars in 2009 and placed 3rd, and ended up appearing on The Masked Singer as Ladybug in Season 2. She became engaged to Slipknot's Sid Wilson at her father's final concert. 'F— off, you're not marrying my daughter,' Ozzy jokingly told Sid as seen in a video shared via Kelly's Instagram. Wilson said, 'Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you. So, in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?' Just weeks before his death, Kelly Osbourne dispelled rumors that her father was dying due to Parkinson's disease. 'There's this video going around on social media, and it's supposed to be my dad, but it's AI,' Kelly said on her Instagram Stories July 11. 'It has a voice like my dad's David Attenborough or something. And it starts out saying, 'I don't need a doctor to tell me that I'm going to die. I know I'm going to die.'' 'What the f—k is wrong with you people?' she continued. 'Why would you spend your time making a video like this? Yes, he has Parkinson's, and yes, his mobility is completely different than it used to be, but he's not dying. What is wrong with you?' Jack Osbourne Jack Osbourne is Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's youngest child. After appearing on The Osbournes, he continued being a media personality starring in shows such as Jack Osbourne: Adrenaline Junkie (2005–2009) and BBC's Saving Planet Earth (2007).
