After more than 20 years in Los Angeles, Ozzy Osbourne made news in August 2022 when he revealed that he and his wife, Sharon Osbourne, intended to return to the UK.
“It just seems that every time we’re set to go, something happens with Ozzy’s health,” Sharon said on Tuesday.
“We’ll get there,” Sharon added. “We want to go back so bad, but we’ll get there. Won’t we, Ozzy?”
Ozzy has been providing regular health updates on The Osbournes Podcast. After decades of battling drug and alcohol addiction, he boasted in January about the positive effects of sobriety, claiming that a visit to the doctor revealed that “my blood clots are gone” and “everything’s back to normal.”
But the emotional impact of his health issues has also weighed on the singer. Asked by a listener on Tuesday’s episode about “the one thing you’ve lost, misplaced or given up you wish you could have again,” Ozzy answered, “My health.”
Ozzy’s candid response highlighted the struggles he’s faced in recent years as he continues to battle health issues. The rock legend, known for his energetic stage presence and larger-than-life persona, has been open about the toll aging and illness have taken on his ability to perform and live the life he once knew.
Sharon, ever supportive, added, “It’s been a long road, but we’re grateful for every step forward. Ozzy’s determination and resilience inspire me every day.” She also reassured fans that despite the challenges, Ozzy remains focused on his recovery and has no plans to give up.
The Osbournes have often shared glimpses of their lives and struggles, and their honesty has resonated with fans worldwide. “We’ve been through hell and back,” Ozzy said. “But the love and support from my family and fans have kept me going.”
While the move back to the UK is on hold for now, the couple remains hopeful. “We’ll make it home,” Ozzy said with a smile. “One way or another.” Fans are rooting for them, offering messages of encouragement and support as Ozzy continues his journey toward better health.
