Kelly cheerfully greeted followers with a “Good morning” before turning the camera toward her dad. Ozzy, sitting quietly with headphones on and an iPad in hand, was surrounded by newspapers and his grandson Sidney in the background. Kelly gently encouraged him to join in, saying: “Dadda, say good morning,” and Ozzy looked up and replied, “Good morning.”
It was a small but heartfelt moment that fans now treasure even more, knowing it came just two days before his passing.
Farewell to a Legend
Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary frontman of Black Sabbath, passed away at age 76 on July 22 at his home in Buckinghamshire. He had been battling Parkinson’s disease for years. Though details around his death remain private, an air ambulance was seen near the Osbourne residence earlier that day.
Thames Valley Air Ambulance later confirmed their team had been called to deliver “advanced critical care” in the area on July 22. A few hours later, the heartbreaking news was shared with the public.
A statement released by the Osbourne family read:
“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.”
Kelly Stays Close, and Rumors Run Wild
In the weeks leading up to his passing, Kelly Osbourne had been staying close to her parents. She even attended Black Sabbath’s farewell concert in Birmingham on July 5. The event wasn’t just emotional for fans—it also turned into a big family moment.
Slipknot’s Sid Wilson proposed to Kelly backstage, and Ozzy, with his signature wit, joked: “F**k off, you’re not marrying my daughter are you?”
On July 11, Kelly also shut down a disturbing rumor about her parents planning to die together in Switzerland. The theory, which spread quickly online, was based on old comments Sharon once made. Kelly fired back on social media, saying: “That was bulls**t my mom said to get attention one time. And my dad’s not dying. Stop.” She continued: “He’s not dying. 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?”
Now, just days after that post, the reality feels much heavier. Ozzy may be gone, but his legacy, his music, and his unforgettable presence will live on forever.
