Yes, he has Parkinson\u2019s, and yes, his mobility is completely different than it used to be, but he\u2019s not dying. What is wrong with you?” Kelly shot down the endless chatter too, like those rumors of a “death pact” with her mom, Sharon\u2014sparked back in 2017 when Sharon spilled to The Mirror about their stance on euthanasia for brain-wreckers like Alzheimer\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Ozzy and I have absolutely come to the same decision,” Sharon had said then. “We believe 100 per cent in euthanasia, so we have drawn up plans to go to the assisted suicide flat in Switzerland if we ever have an illness that affects our brains. If Ozzy or I ever got Alzheimer\u2019s, that\u2019s it\u2014we\u2019d be off. I saw my father suffer from the day he came back into my life in 2002 to the day he died in July. There\u2019s no way I could go through what he did, or put my kids through that.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kelly wasn’t having it. “Stop making articles or posts about how you think my parents are having a suicide pact,” she continued on her Stories. “That was bullshit, my mom said to get attention one time. And my dad\u2019s not dying. Stop.” Ozzy and Sharon had been rock-solid since 1979, the kind of metal marriage that weathered storms most bands couldn’t dream of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tragically, the hoax’s shadow proved prophetic. On July 23, the Osbourne family shared the news no one wanted: their beloved Ozzy had passed at 76. “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,” they stated publicly. “He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.” No cause was named then, but later reports pointed to a heart attack tied to coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For rock lifers, it’s a gut-wrenching echo\u2014the man who bit heads off bats and turned Sabbath’s doom riffs into anthems, felled not by some tabloid fever dream, but by time’s quiet grind. That final Instagram plea from Kelly? It hangs like a riff unfinished, a reminder of how fast lies spread and how fragile even immortals are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Think back to last week, when the internet lit up with vicious lies\u2014the Prince of Darkness, Black Sabbath’s…\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":21568,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-22067","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-musician"},"yoast_head":"\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/artgardenhub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/image-702-828x1024.png\")
