Sharon Osbourne is still navigating through her grief following the death of her husband, Ozzy Osbourne.
“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,” the matriarch admitted in an Instagram post Friday while showcasing her new falconry hobby.
Continuing to thank her fans, she wrote, “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.”
Sharon added, “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. “
She concluded, “It’s a bond I know all too well, and the experience was nothing short of magical.”
Ozzy died on July 22 after a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s disease. He was 76 years old.
“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” the Black Sabbath rocker’s family said in a statement at the time, confirming his death.
“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”
In addition to his diagnosis — which he revealed in January 2020 — the “Crazy Train” hitmaker had also been dealing with the fallout from a neck injury he sustained in a 2003 quad biking accident.
In May 2022, Ozzy announced he was unable to “walk properly” after he underwent a “life-altering” neck surgery to address the injury.
The ongoing health issues ultimately led to his retirement from touring in November 2023. However, he took the stage one final time with his Black Sabbath bandmates in July 2025.
Sharon, 72, and Ozzy tied the knot in July 1982. They shared three children together: daughters Aimee and Kelly, and son Jack. Ozzy was also a father to three children from his previous marriage to Thelma Riley: Jessica, Louis, and Elliot (whom Ozzy adopted).
During their time together, Sharon helped her husband release 13 studio albums as his music manager and expanded their fame to reality TV as the stars of their show “The Osbournes.”
While the pair had their share of rough patches throughout their 43-year marriage, the couple’s love story would go on to set the backdrop for a biopic of their romance, which was announced in October 2021.
“Our relationship at times was often wild, insane and dangerous, but it was our undying love that kept us together,” Sharon said in a statement at the time.
