The Prince of Darkness reportedly found tranquility in the final days leading up to his death.
“Ozzy’s final days were spent in England, surrounded by family, music and in the place he called home,” a source told People Wednesday. “He was in peace.”
The insider explained that Osbourne — who died on Tuesday at the age of 76 — had moved to Buckinghamshire in 2023 with his wife, Sharon, for their “final chapter” as his health declined.
“Sharon had wanted to move back to England for years, especially as she got older,” they divulged. “England was always home for them, but it became more than that.”
“It was about creating peace and the best life possible together in their final chapter,” they continued. “The path back to England wasn’t easy. His health has been fragile for years.”
The insider explained that the move across the pond was “a gift, because they got a year and half together, at home.”
The rocker’s family revealed his death in an emotional statement to Page Six.
“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,” his family said.
“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”
Prior to his death, Ozzy delivered the final performance of his life in the Black Sabbath farewell concert — dubbed “Back to the Beginning” — on July 5.
The metal icon and reality TV star battled Parkinson’s disease, as well as the debilitating effects of a 2003 quad bike accident, for years leading up to his death. Ozzy shared his stage 2 Parkinson’s diagnosis on “Good Morning America” in 2020.
“There’s so many different types of Parkinson’s — it’s not a death sentence by any stretch of the imagination, but it does affect certain nerves in your body,” Sharon, 72, explained during the joint interview.
“And it’s like you have a good day and then a really bad day.”
In 2019, the Black Sabbath frontman suffered a fall that knocked loose multiple metal rods in his body — he had received15 screws in his spine following the brutal 2003 accident. “When I had the fall, it was pitch black, I went to the bathroom and I fell,” he recalled to GMA.
“I just fell and landed like a slam on the floor and I remember lying there thinking, ‘Well, you’ve done it now,’ really calm. Sharon [called] an ambulance. After that, it was all downhill.”
Amid his declining health, his daughter Kelly, 40, pushed back after a fake AI video claimed the rocker was dying earlier this month.
“It has a voice like my dad’s David Attenborough or something. And it starts out saying, ‘I don’t need a doctor to tell me that I’m going to die. I know I’m going to die,’” Kelly said via Instagram Stories, per E! News.
“What the f–k is wrong with you people?” the “Fashion Police” alum said. “Why would you spend your time making a video like this?”
“Yes, he has Parkinson’s, and yes, his mobility is completely different than it used to be, but he’s not dying. What is wrong with you?” she said.
