Sharon Osbourne Faces Tax Debt Crisis After Ozzy's Death

Following Ozzy Osbourne's death at age 76, his widow Sharon faces not only grief but a substantial financial burden due to significant tax debts reportedly totaling nearly $5 million. Despite Ozzy's estimated fortune of over $200 million amassed through his music career and reality TV ventures, the couple struggled with high expenses and mounting debts, including two IRS tax liens filed in 2023 and 2024. Ozzy was determined to continue performing despite serious health issues, including Parkinson's disease, in an effort to secure his family's financial future, culminating in his final performance just weeks before his death. Sharon, supported by their children, is now tasked with managing the estate, which includes properties in Buckinghamshire and California, while bracing for creditor claims that could jeopardize their assets. Ozzy's will reportedly ensures his estate remains within the family, with his wife having lifetime interest and the children set to inherit after her passing. The financial pressures highlight the tragic circumstances surrounding the end of the rock legend's life and the challenges facing his family moving forward.
