‘He Was My Life’: Sharon Osbourne’s Poignant Final Interview on Her Unbreakable Bond with Ozzy

The world is still reeling from the loss of Ozzy Osbourne, the incomparable “Prince of Darkness” who passed away on July 22, 2025, at the age of 76. As fans and friends share their memories, a recently aired interview with his wife of 43 years, Sharon Osbourne, has emerged as a heartbreaking and beautiful final testament to their legendary love story. Recorded just days before his death, her words paint an intimate portrait of the man behind the myth and the profound connection they shared.

In a deeply emotional conversation on AXS TV, a tearful but resolute Sharon reflected on the wild, powerful love that defined her life.

“I Fell in Love With His Chaos”

When asked what made her fall for Ozzy, Sharon’s answer was as raw and honest as the man himself. She spoke of the magnetic energy that drew her in from the very beginning.

“I fell in love with his chaos, his energy, and the way he lived life without brakes,” she shared, her voice thick with emotion. “He wasn’t pretending. He was what he was — vulnerable, strong, funny, and sometimes heartbreakingly lost. And I loved him for all of it.”

She made it clear that their bond went far beyond the glamour and headlines of rock stardom. It was a journey built on accepting and loving every part of each other, navigating a life of incredible highs and devastating lows with an unwavering sense of loyalty.

43 Years of Triumph and Turbulence

Married in 1982, Sharon and Ozzy’s relationship became one of the most iconic in music history, a saga of survival against all odds. They stood together through his battles with addiction, serious health crises, and the pressures of global fame, raising their three children—Aimee, Kelly, and Jack—in the whirlwind of it all.

“Ozzy always called me his rock,” Sharon recalled with a faint smile, “but he was my wind. He pushed me, lifted me, and sometimes carried me to places I never thought I could reach.” Their connection was a true partnership, a force that proved unbreakable no matter what storms they faced.

A Warrior’s Farewell: “He Knew the End Was Near”

In his final months, Ozzy’s body was failing him after years of battling Parkinson’s disease and enduring multiple debilitating surgeries. Yet, Sharon revealed his spirit remained defiant. His passion for music was the one thing that never faded.

“He told me, ‘If I die on stage, I’ll die happy,’” she said. This powerful sentiment cast his final performance in a new, poignant light. The reunion with his original Black Sabbath bandmates this past July was more than just a concert; it was his final wish fulfilled.

“It wasn’t just a concert — it was his goodbye,” Sharon confirmed, acknowledging that the legendary show was his way of closing the final chapter on his own terms.

“The World Is a Little Quieter”

As the interview drew to a close, Sharon’s composure finally broke, laying bare the immense grief of losing her other half.

“He was my life. He still is. Ozzy wasn’t just my husband — he was a force of nature,” she concluded, her words cracking. “And now, without him, the world is a little quieter.”

Through her final, heartfelt words, Sharon Osbourne gave the world a gift: a glimpse into a love story that was as powerful, chaotic, and beautiful as the music her husband created. It was a love that defied every odd and will forever be etched in history.
