Jack Osbourne reveals adorable moment Ozzy's granddaughter realises his fame
Jack Osbourne shared a sweet moment with his daughter Maple as they watched Ozzy Osbourne perform on screen years before the Prince of Darkness' death Jack Osbourne captured the adorable moment his daughter Maple realised her granddad was a hugely famous musician. Following the sad news of Ozzy Osbourne's death on Tuesday at the age of 76, a resurfaced clip from 2023 showed the loving bond he had with his granddaughter. While Jack, 39, often shared clips of his kids, including them with Ozzy at their home, it was a video of Maple watching her " Papa" perform that really pulls at the heartstrings. Jack is sitting on a settee in the clip, while his toddler daughter is excitedly standing, with the help of a table. The duo are watching footage of Ozzy performing on stage and while Jack has a wry smile on his face, his daughter is a lot more vocal in her glee. The excited tot keeps shouting "papa" at the screen while beaming with joy. She then points towards the clip as she continue to smile and shout. And further clips showed how the bond has continued to blossom between the pair as Jack showed Maple enjoying her papa's final ever show under three weeks ago. "It never gets old. Still mesmerized by grand-dad," Jack gushed as he shared a clip of his kids enjoying Ozzy's performance on stage at Villa Park. While Jack shares Maple with current wife Aree Gearhart, he also has three daughters — Pearl, Andy and Minnie — with his ex-wife Lisa Stelly. The trio were also seen in his recent clip enjoying the tunes of Ozzy. Just before his death, Jack gushed over his 'loving' father amid his many health woes. He proudly spoke about his dad's life and career just two weeks ago, describing Ozzy as 'funny and unique'. Ozzy's son Jack had been at a screening of a new Ozzy Osbourne documentary, 'The Nine Lives Of Ozzy Osbourne', in Birmingham on July 4, the day before the Back To The Beginning concert. Speaking at the Millennium Point Centre in Birmingham, Jack said: 'What are my three words to describe my dad? I would say funny, unique and powerful. He is an incredible man. He really is. His contribution to music is bigger than his faults. This whole weekend has been emotional.' Jack also revealed his dad's planned biopic; the production will be even more eagerly awaited by fans now. He said: 'We do have the film on the way. "We have a lot of good forward momentum on the Ozzy biopic. We have a director attached now and the script is done and Sony Studios is going to be producing it. 'We are really excited about it so maybe we will do the premiere here in Birmingham. It is about to go through a script rewrite. It's going to be raw. We are not pulling any punches, we are really laying it all out. The director we have is absolutely phenomenal. 'I can't say who he is but we are very lucky to have him and he is a die hard fan. I have the smiley knee tattoos that my dad has and he (our director) has them too. The film is in good hands. If the evil overlords of Hollywood give us the green light we could be filming in the spring so maybe it will be out summer 2027 fingers crossed.'

Speaking at the Millennium Point Centre in Birmingham, Jack said: 'What are my three words to describe my dad? I would say funny, unique and powerful. "He is an incredible man. He really is. His contribution to music is bigger than his faults. This whole weekend has been emotional.' Jack also spoke about a planned Ozzy biopic, which will be even more eagerly awaited by fans now.

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.' The Prince of Darkness had been suffering from Parkinson's disease in the years before his death. The rocker was in the midst of a worrying health battle before he was set to take to the stage at Villa Park to play in front of around 50,000 fans. The music legend had not played a live show in nearly seven years, but he made it his mission to produce a knockout performance for Black Sabbath fans for their farewell show at Villa Park. Ozzy committed to his rehab by moving a specialist coach into his home, to give him the fitness he needed to produce the performance. Speaking about what would be his last show, the late legend said: "It's my final encore; it's my chance to say thank you to my fans for always supporting me and being there for me. "I couldn't have done my final show anywhere else. I had to go back to the beginning."

'Raw' biopic on Ozzy Osbourne's life is on the way
An Ozzy Osbourne biopic is in the works. The Black Sabbath rocker, 76, played the final gig of his career at Birmingham's Villa Park on Saturday and his son Jack Osbourne has revealed that a "raw" movie about his remarkable life could be hitting the big screen as early as 2027. Jack told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "We have the film on the way. We have a lot of good momentum on the Ozzy biopic. "We have a director attached now and the script is done, and Sony Studios is going to be producing it. "It is about to go through a script rewrite. It's going be raw. "We are not pulling any punches, we are really laying it all out." Jack explained that a "phenomenal" director is helming the project and is a "die-hard fan" of Osbourne's. "The director is absolutely phenomenal," he said. "I can't say who he is, but we are very lucky to have him and he is a die-hard fan. "If the evil overlords of Hollywood give us the green light, we could be filming in the spring, so maybe it will be out by the summer of 2027." It was previously reported in 2021 that a movie about Osbourne and his wife Sharon was in the pipeline. The project was billed to focus on the lives and epic love story of the rocker and his wife and tell the story of their decades-long bond. Osbourne and Sharon have been married since 1982 and their relationship exploded into pop culture with the MTV reality series The Osbournes, which centred on the domestic lives of the couple and their children Kelly and Jack and aired between 2002 and 2005. The screenplay for the project was adapted by Oscar-nominated scribe Lee Hall, whose credits include the Elton John biopic Rocketman and Steven Spielberg's take on War Horse. Music will also play a pivotal role in the film, which will include hits from both Black Sabbath and Ozzy's solo career. An Ozzy Osbourne biopic is in the works.
