On December 3, 2023, Sharon Osbourne, aged 73, posted a touching video montage on her Instagram, showcasing a special birthday memorial on the iconic Black Sabbath Bridge in Birmingham, England. The tribute features the words “Happy birthday, Ozzy” beautifully arranged in purple flowers. The video is accompanied by Ozzy’s 1995 song “See You On the Other Side,” evoking deep emotions as it transitions through memorable photos of his life.
“My darling husband, I celebrate the day you were born. I will never let go of your hand until I see you on the other side,” Sharon wrote, reflecting her enduring love and connection to Ozzy.
Kelly Osbourne, aged 41, also honored her father with a video montage shared on December 2, 2023. Her tribute features photos from the Black Sabbath Bridge memorial along with cherished family moments. “Happy birthday daddy you most certainly did not die an ordinary man!” Kelly captioned her emotional post, set to Ozzy’s 2020 track “Ordinary Man” featuring Elton John.
“Life without you is hard, but not a day goes by that I don’t dedicate my life to loving you and your legacy! I miss you more than anything in the world. I love you until eternity!” Kelly continued, expressing her profound grief and love.
In a further tribute on the actual birthday, Kelly shared a carousel of images from her childhood, captioning it with, “Happy birthday I miss you daddy! 🎂 I love you more than life itself!” These heartfelt messages resonate deeply with fans who share in the family’s loss.
Ozzy Osbourne passed away earlier this year, and his family revealed that he succumbed to cardiac arrest, alongside other health issues including acute myocardial infarction and Parkinson’s disease, as confirmed by a death certificate obtained by The Sun newspaper.
In November, Sharon revealed on “The Osbournes” podcast that King Charles III reached out to the Osbourne family to express his condolences following Ozzy’s death. “Here’s a man who does know what’s going on in the street with people, not just politics. Here’s a man who cares about the environment, animals. He cares about many, many, many things. He’s got a good heart,” she stated, highlighting the warmth and compassion shown by the British monarch during their time of mourning.
As fans and family members reflect on Ozzy’s remarkable legacy, the tributes serve as a reminder of his impact on music and culture. The emotional outpouring from Sharon and Kelly encapsulates the love and admiration felt not only by those closest to him but also by millions around the globe.
