Sharon Osbourne is reportedly struggling with a difficult decision following the loss of her husband Ozzy Osbourne. Sources close to the family spoke to The Mirror about her situation.
The sources revealed details about Sharon’s emotional state and the challenging choice she faces regarding where to live following Ozzy’s death.
“Sharon is heartbroken, she thought she would be nursing Ozzy for much longer in the UK,” a family source told The Mirror. “Now she’s sad, she is lonely, she’s a widow.”
The source continued to explain the nature of Sharon’s dilemma between staying in the UK near Ozzy’s resting place and returning to the U.S. to be with her children.
“She faces living a life without the children, but it’s so upsetting to leave Ozzy cold in the ground,” the source added. “She can’t cut herself in half and be in both places, but she is so devoted to Ozzy.”
Sharon moved back to the UK to care for Ozzy, but now finds herself torn between remaining near his grave in the garden of their UK home and returning to America to be closer to her children, reports indicated.
This emotional struggle reflects the couple’s complex relationship with both countries over the years. The Osbournes had deep roots in both the UK and the United States. This makes Sharon’s current predicament even more challenging.
RealtyNXT reported that the UK home where Ozzy now rests is known as Welder’s House in Buckinghamshire, a grand estate that served as their final residence together. The property features manicured gardens where Ozzy was laid to rest. It also includes a wood-paneled office that served as Sharon’s command center and a red velvet theater room.
Before their return to the UK, the couple had spent over two decades living in a luxurious $18 million Los Angeles mansion in Hancock Park. Hello Magazine noted that they had put the mansion on the market as part of their planned relocation back to the UK. This was a move that was supported by Sharon but met with some family resistance.
The family’s move back to the UK was initially motivated by their desire for a fresh start. However, Ozzy’s deteriorating health due to Parkinson’s disease had previously anchored him to the US for medical care. Hello Magazine revealed that their son had expressed concerns about the family being far from the children and grandchildren. This highlights the very dilemma Sharon now faces.
The couple’s transatlantic lifestyle had always been a balancing act between their British roots and their American family ties. This makes Sharon’s current decision all the more poignant as she navigates life without her partner of decades.
