He was 76.
βIt 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,' a family statement said. In 2020, he revealed he had Parkinson's disease after suffering a fall.
Known as the "Prince of Darkness," Ozbourne always disavowed rumors that he was a Satanist, despite having a band named "Black Sabbath." He was raised Anglican in the Church of England and indicated throughout his career that he still had faith in God, though he didn't associate with any church.
Not sure we'll ever get a singer who bites a bat live on stage again!
