Ozzy Osbourne created a lasting legacy in the rock music genre. Known for his surprising on-stage antics and heavy metal vibe, the late “Prince of Darkness” got his big break with Black Sabbath but made a name for himself as a solo artist. As a result, Ozzy saw his net worth and overall fortune increase. But with age comes physical difficulties and health setbacks, and Ozzy was eventually diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. As fellow musicians, his family and fans mourn Ozzy, many are looking back at his decades-long career.
On July 22, 2025, Ozzy’s family announced his death in a social media statement, which read, “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. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”
The statement was signed by Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, and some of Ozzy’s children, Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.
