Sharon Osbourne Shares First Public Statement Since Ozzy’s Passing

Almost two months after the tragic passing of Ozzy Osbourne on July 22, 2025, Sharon Osbourne has shared her first heartfelt message with fans. Posting on her social media this past Friday, September 12, Sharon offered words of gratitude and comfort following the outpouring of support from fans worldwide.

Accompanied by a video of herself and daughter Kelly at a falconry range in Cornwall, England, Sharon wrote:

“I’m still having trouble finding the words to express how grateful I am for the overwhelming love and support you’ve shown on social media. Your comments, posts, and tributes have brought me more comfort than you know. None of it has gone unnoticed, in fact, it’s carried me through many nights.

“Though I’m still finding my footing, I wanted to share some glorious creatures I had the chance to spend an afternoon with. The connection you make with these powerful birds is built entirely on trust and confidence. They’ll choose to perch on you only if they sense you are safe and unafraid of them. It’s a bond I know all too well, and the experience was nothing short of magical.

“I love you all, and I thank you deeply for the otherworldly amount of love you continue to send my way.”

Fans continue to mourn the loss of the “Prince of Darkness,” and Sharon, Kelly, and Jack Osbourne are receiving support from around the world as they navigate life without Ozzy.
