Cause of death?

B0D · 22/07/2025 19:13

Oh wow

Usernamenotavailable19 · 22/07/2025 19:13

nooooooo 😮 I had to Google! He’s literally been touring a couple of weeks ago!!

Flashout · 22/07/2025 19:13

No! RIP the Prince of Darkness!

Cause of death?

Not sure think age and parkinsons. The family didn't say in the statement.

RIP, Ozzy, at least he got to do his last concert a couple of weeks ago

Cause of death?

Hang on, he's only just died, he had parkinsons and other health problems, such a character, he will be sorely missed.

LlynTegid · 22/07/2025 19:16

May he rest in peace, thoughts for his family. I hope that the concert a couple of weeks ago enabling him to perform for one last time gives some comfort to them and others as they mourn.

TheCurious0range · 22/07/2025 19:16

Oh bless him, his family must be devastated, he's not been a picture of health for a long time but given he was recently touring this must be very unexpected.

LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway · 22/07/2025 19:17

Oh WOW! Sad

I am sure he only just performed with Black Sabbath too.

Lots of tears in Birmingham tonight, and all over the world, for this utter legend of metal!

R.I.P. Ozzy. ❤

InNewYorkNoShoes · 22/07/2025 19:17

I think he’s had a bloody good life, fame, money, travel and a family - he’s really lived his best life.
Sorry to the family for the loss ❤️

Needmorelego · 22/07/2025 19:17

He essentially had said he was moving "home" (Birmingham) to die.
I loved him on their reality show - it was just completely silly.
So pleased he got to do the concert.
RIP Ozzy.

AutumnLover1989 · 22/07/2025 19:18

I'm so glad for his fans that he managed to do a fairwell concert and he did a comic con in Birmingham a couple of weeks ago too.

daisydalrymple · 22/07/2025 19:18

So glad he got to do the final concert. He’s gone out on such a high.
We had tickets for his show in 2019, which was postponed due to the fall at home accident, then eventually got cancelled altogether. Never saw him live again. So sad.
😢😢😢😢😢😢

Cause of death?

Of being Ozzy.
The legend he was.

Cause of death?

too much fast living
RIP Ozzy, Black Sabbath always were and always will be my favorite band

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 22/07/2025 19:20

He went out on a high! The world of metal grovel at his feet 🦇

JustPinkFinch · 22/07/2025 19:21

RIP Ozzy ❤️
Great to see you back in Brum X

TheEndlessNight · 22/07/2025 19:21

Just watching on the news, a total shock. They always seem to be a close and loving family. What a shame.

Oh that is so sad!

His farewell concert raised millions for a local children’s hospice, as well as Birmingham Children’s Hospital and I think a Parkinson’s charity.

ApolloandDaphne · 22/07/2025 19:21

What a guy. I'm going to see a Black Sabbath ballet in October!

SpidersAreShitheads · 22/07/2025 19:21

I am in total shock - I knew he was very ill but weirdly didn't expect this any time soon!

He went out in style, just a couple of weeks after that hugely successful concert. So pleased he was able to do that.

Life is so unpredictable - watching him at that concert, you'd never have thought he only had a couple of weeks left.

Poor Sharon and his kids, they'll be broken-hearted. Bless them all.

RIP Ozzy 🦇❤️

MidoriNoRingo · 22/07/2025 19:22

Gutted for Kelly that he has passed before she had the wedding. Rip ozzy 🖤

Nitgel · 22/07/2025 19:22

Oh man. he was a trouper. RIP Ozzy

GreenSmithing · 22/07/2025 19:22

Oh gosh. He only played his farewell concert on 5 July. I'm glad he got to have that
