Sharon Osbourne’s Husband’s Health Is Worsening
The tour cancellation comes amid her husband Ozzy’s ailing health condition with Parkinson’s disease.
Sharon has been the primary caregiver of the legendary rocker, who was first diagnosed with the condition in 2003.
In February, she opened up about Ozzy’s health as he prepares to hit the stage for his final concert in July with his Black Sabbath group.
Sharon disclosed that the Black Sabbath frontman can no longer walk due to the effects of the condition on his health, but shared that his singing voice is “as good as ever.”
“He’s very happy to be coming back and very emotional about this,” Sharon told The Sun of her husband’s final show.

“Parkinson’s is a progressive disease. It’s not something you can stabilize. It affects different parts of the body, and it’s affected his legs,” she continued. “But his voice is as good as it’s ever been.”
Ozzy disclosed he had been diagnosed with the brain disorder in 2020 after suffering a fall the previous year.
He has reportedly undergone seven surgeries in the past five years, including a fourth spinal surgery in September 2023.

Ozzy Will Not Perform A Full Set In Black Sabbath Show
Meanwhile, Ozzy will reportedly not perform a full set when he reunites with his Black Sabbath band for the first time in 20 years.
Earlier this year, the Prince of Darkness opened up about his upcoming performance in his “Ozzy Speaks Show,” where he confessed that he’ll only be doing “little bits and pieces.”
“I’m not planning on doing a set with Black Sabbath, but I am doing little bits and pieces with them,” he said, per the Daily Mail. “I am doing what I can, where I feel comfortable.”
The event will feature a dozen bands, including Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Gojira, and Anthrax, and will also see a “supergroup” performance comprising members of Limp Bizkit, Van Halen, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Faith No More.
Sharon Osbourne Says The Performance Would Be Ozzy’s ‘Full Stop’
Despite Ozzy’s love for performance, Sharon noted that the concert would be the rocker’s final show.
“Ozzy didn’t have a chance to say goodbye to his friends, to his fans, and he feels there’s been no full stop,” she said. “This is his full stop.”
The all-day heavy metal concert at Villa Park is a charity initiative, as proceeds from the show will be donated to several Parkinson-related charities.
These charities include Cure Parkinson’s, the Birmingham Children’s Hospital, and Acorn Children’s Hospice, a Children’s Hospice supported by Aston Villa.

Ozzy Osbourne Says He’ll ‘Die A Happy Man’ If He Passes Away While Performing
Sharon’s husband, Ozzy, was forced to quit touring in early 2023 because of his many health conditions.
However, he disclosed that if he got the chance to play one final show, it would be to repay a debt of gratitude he owed to his fans for their support through the years.
“That’s one of the things I’ve been the most fucking pissed off at: I never got the chance to say goodbye or thank you,” he told Rolling Stone UK. “Because my fans are what it’s all about. If I can just do a few gigs… They’ve been loyal to me for f-cking years. They write to me, they know all about my dogs. It’s my extended family, really, and they give us the lifestyle we have. For whatever reason, that’s my goal to work to. To do those shows.”
He added: “If I can’t continue doing shows on a regular basis, I just want to be well enough to do one show where I can say, ‘Hi guys, thanks so much for my life.’ That’s what I’m working towards, and if I drop down dead at the end of it, I’ll die a happy man.”
