Lede: Sharon Osbourne is recounting the final 20 minutes of her husband, legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne, who died at 76 after a heart attack — and she shared his last words in a new interview with Piers Morgan.
- Fast Facts
- Ozzy Osbourne, 76, died in July following a reported heart attack.
- Sharon says his final words to her were “Kiss me” and “Hug me tight,” about 20 minutes before he died.
- He had been battling severe health problems including Parkinson’s, repeated pneumonia and sepsis.
- Sharon’s full interview with Piers Morgan airs today.
On Piers Morgan Uncensored, Sharon Osbourne — the TV personality and longtime manager of her husband — described the morning Ozzy passed, saying he had been “up and down to the bathroom all night” before waking her around 4:30 a.m. She recalled his calm, intimate final requests and that he appeared to understand his body was failing him.
“He said, ‘Wake up.’ I said, ‘I’m already bloody awake, you’ve woken me up,'” Sharon told Morgan, then shared the moments he asked her to kiss and hold him. She said he then went downstairs, worked out for 20 minutes and suffered a heart attack. Sharon says she immediately knew he was gone even as others tried to resuscitate him and he was later airlifted to hospital.
Sharon described the toll of Ozzy’s medical battles this year — multiple bouts of pneumonia, sepsis and intensive antibiotic treatment — which she believes seriously weakened him. Yet she also said his mood in the weeks after Black Sabbath’s reunion show in Birmingham had been unusually bright: “He was so happy afterwards … happier than we’d seen him in seven years.”
