Jack Osbourne Gives Heartbreaking Update On Sharon After Ozzy’s Death
In a recent interview, Jack Osbourne offered a candid look at how his mother, Sharon, is coping with the death of her husband, Ozzy Osbourne. He described her state as “okay, but not okay,” buoyed by a global outpouring of love from fans, yet with her grief always close to the surface.
Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary Black Sabbath frontman, died of a heart attack on July 22, 2025, at age 76. His passing followed years of health struggles, including Parkinson’s disease, which had complicated his final years and were visible during his last public performance in early July.
A public farewell was held in Birmingham eight days after his death. Thousands of fans lined the streets as the funeral procession passed city landmarks, with Sharon and their children participating in the tributes.
After a quiet summer, Sharon publicly thanked fans in September, stating their support had provided immense comfort. Jack’s recent comments echo this, noting his mother functions day-to-day but is deeply adjusting to life without her partner of decades.
The family’s grief coincides with the release of several projects documenting Ozzy’s final years. These include a BBC documentary, a Paramount+ film, and his posthumous memoir, “Last Rites.”
In his memoir, Ozzy expressed his profound reliance on Sharon, writing that his biggest fear was her passing before him. Jack emphasized that his father wanted the book to be a celebration, not a source of pity.
The family continues to navigate their loss, mixing private mourning with public duties. Jack’s update captures this duality: Sharon is sustained by public support and family, yet fundamentally navigating the profound absence of her husband.
