Sharon Osbourne has shared an emotional tribute to her late husband Ozzy Osbourne on what would have been their 46th wedding anniversary, the first since his death on July 22, 2025. The Black Sabbath frontman passed away at the age of 76.
Social Media Tribute
On Saturday, July 4, Sharon took to social media to honour Ozzy with a sweet tribute, posting a close-up photo of their hands clasped together. She wrote: "Today would have been our 46th wedding anniversary. Instead, it is a celebration of a love that even death could not diminish. I miss your hand in mine, but I carry your love with me every step of the way."
The post was signed off with an emotional promise: "Forever my husband. Forever my heart."
Daughter Kelly's Open Letter
Their daughter Kelly Osbourne, 41, also shared a moving tribute over the weekend, penning an open letter to her mother which she posted on Instagram. The letter read: "My Dearest Mummy. Today feels different. A day that was once filled with celebration now carries a quiet ache. This is your first wedding anniversary without Daddy by your side, and I can only imagine how heavy your heart must feel. There are some dates that remind us just how deeply we have loved, and today is one of them."
Kelly continued: "I hope you know that love like yours doesn't end when a life does. It changes shape. It becomes the warmth of the sun on your face when you need comfort, the memories that make you smile through tears, the quiet moments when you somehow know he's near. Daddy may no longer walk beside you, but he will never stop walking with you."
She added that she often pictures her father looking down on them "with that magical smile, the one that held so much pride and so much love," and that he would be so "proud" of his wife and how she has carried on without him.
Marriage and Family
The couple married in Hawaii on July 4, 1982, and renewed their vows in 2017. Together they raised three children: Aimee, Kelly, and Jack. The Osbournes were married for 45 years until Ozzy's death at age 76.
