Sharon Osbourne broke down in tears during a deeply emotional farewell to her husband, Ozzy Osbourne, in Birmingham. Supported by her children, she placed a single pink rose among a sea of floral tributes, honoring the legendary rocker known as the “Prince of Darkness.” Ozzy passed away on July 22, 2025, surrounded by family, after decades of health struggles including Parkinson’s disease.

The memorial procession through Birmingham was electrifying and heartfelt, echoing Ozzy’s rebellious spirit. Fans chanted “Ozzy! Ozzy! Ozzy!” and held up signs, albums, and guitars as his hearse passed iconic locations like Black Sabbath Bridge. Portable speakers blasted his hits, and the city resonated with the sound of “Paranoid.”
Sharon, visibly heartbroken, was joined by children Kelly, Jack, Aimee, and Louis, each laying flowers in tribute. Social media overflowed with condolences and memories, reflecting the profound impact Ozzy had on generations. Though gone, his legacy and music continue to roar.
