Sharon Osbourne has decision to make after Ozzy’s burial
Sharon Osbourne was totally committed to her husband Ozzy Osbourne, and there is a gaping hole in her life without him. She now has to decide if she will stay in the U.K. near his grave, or return to the U.S. to be with her children and grandchildren.
“Sharon is heartbroken, she thought she would be nursing Ozzy for much longer in the UK,” a family source told The Mirror. “Now she’s sad, she is lonely, she’s a widow.”
The source said Sharon faces a dilemma between staying in the U.K. near Ozzy’s resting place and returning to the U.S. to be with her family.
“She faces living a life without the children, but it’s so upsetting to leave Ozzy cold in the ground,” the source added. “She can’t cut herself in half and be in both places, but she is so devoted to Ozzy.”
Ozzy’s family and friends in music have continued to mourn the Black Sabbath icon following his death, which came shortly after his final concert.
Ozzy Osbourne was happy near the end of his life
While Judas Priest was invited to perform at Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath’s final show “Back to the Beginning” – which took place just 17 days before Osbourne passed away – the band unfortunately were forced to turn down the gig due to a scheduling conflict.
In a new interview with New York radio station Q104.3, Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford opened up about how Osbourne looked in those final days, detailing how happy the legendary metal singer was leading up to and during “Back to the Beginning.”
“You could see it in his face. He was lit up. I’ve never seen him so happy,” Halford said, adding that he believes after the concert Osbourne felt his time was up. “So then, how do you think he felt when he went home to Windsor the next day and got in his chair and just sat there? It’s done. It’s done, it’s done. I think somehow your body says it’s time to let go. You take a deep breath and… and you just let go.”
He continued, noting the toll Parkinson’s disease took on Osbourne.
“Parkinson’s is a really, really f*cking cruel, horrible disease. And it chips away at your life — it chips away at your life slowly and slowly and slowly. And maybe he thought, ‘I’m not making that exit that way. I’m going my way.’ And if he did that, God bless him even more.”
