Jack Osbourne Reveals How He Learned Father Ozzy Died

Jack Osbourne tearfully recounted the moment he learned of his father Ozzy Osbourne's death in a heartfelt YouTube video released six weeks after the rock legend's passing. Ozzy died on July 22, shortly after performing his final concert, 'Back to the Beginning,' in Birmingham, and Jack was with him during the show and for a week afterward in England before returning to Los Angeles. Jack described waking at 3:45 a.m. to a knock on his door by a longtime family employee, immediately sensing something was wrong, and being informed of his father's passing. Despite the shock, Jack found some comfort in knowing Ozzy was no longer suffering from his declining health, which had included Parkinson’s disease and heart issues. He also expressed gratitude for the extra time spent with Ozzy and reflected on his father's complex and insightful personality, emphasizing that Ozzy was more aware than people thought. Jack quickly booked a flight back to England to be with family following the news.
