Ozzy Osbourne Enjoys Being Cool Grandpa of 9 & Lives a Quiet Life in Peaceful Village

• Ozzy Osbourne lived a full and adventurous rockstar life; some of the things he has done are shocking.

• He struggled with substance abuse but changed his life to become a caring grandfather.

• Osbourne left Los Angeles and moved to a small village in England.

Rockstar Ozzy Osbourne can leave this world knowing he has lived a full life. The singer has always found outrageous things to get his audience's attention, but he also did some stuff for the adrenaline.

Osbourne broke into fame after becoming the lead vocalist for Black Sabbath. One time, the rockstar found purple paint backstage and rubbed it all over his nose. He later discovered that the paint was so pigmented that it took weeks to get it off.

The British singer loved living life on the edge. While he was still married to his first wife, Thelma Riley, he drove to the hospital for the birth of their child, Jessica, intoxicated.

Another one of Osbourne's adventures was a striptease. The rocker took off all his clothes while performing in Germany for his "Blizzard of Ozz" tour. Once he was naked, he finished his show by peeing in someone's drink. This performance had him banned from Germany for many years.

On a more comedic note, Osbourne thought it would be funny to sneak into his guests' rooms and shave off their eyebrows.

Recently, the rock star did something he has reportedly wanted to do for years. He and his friend, Zakk Wylde, threw a 50-inch television through a ninth-floor window of their hotel. The TV hit the pavement and exploded; in return, Osbourne was charged $38,000 by the hotel.

However, one of the most famous outrageous things the rocker has done was accidentally biting off the head of a bat. An audience member reportedly threw it on stage, but Osbourne thought it was fake, so he took a big bite, and as he was chewing, he realized it was real. He took a rabies shot after to stay safe.

Osbourne and his wife, Sharon, have been married for 40 years, meaning Sharon has lived through many of his experiential life choices, but the singer appreciates how she grounds him and even credits her for saving his life.

The rocker was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and has had several spinal surgeries from a fall he suffered in 2019. He confessed that the condition had him struggling with depression, blood clots, and nerve pain, but his wife's support has kept him alive.

Osbourne and Sharon's relationship goes back 52 years. They met through Sharon's father, who was managing Black Sabbath then, but after the singer was fired from the band, he hid in a hotel in Beverly Hills for three months, drowning his feelings in alcohol.

Sharon came along and helped him get back on his feet. She proposed that he start a solo career and become his manager. Their business partnership brought "Crazy Train" into the world, Osbourne's biggest song to date, with over 400 million streams on Spotify.

The pair's professional relationship turned romantic, and they married in 1982. They welcomed three children — Aimee, 39, Kelly, 38, and Jack, 37.

Osbourne and Sharon have loved each other through the good and the bad times. One downfall was when the rockstar got drunk and strangled his wife, then Sharon found out about his infidelity, which led to their separation in 2016.

But the split did not last long; Sharon forgave her husband on "The Talk," the show she was hosting at the time. She confessed that both of them were never perfect and they equally poured into their relationship, never giving up on one another. "We are just meant to be," said Sharon.

40 years later and 13 years clean, Osbourne said his wife made him a better person. "Now, I don't drink or smoke or do any of that. I'm boring!" he added.

Ozzy Osbourne Ditched L.A for a Small Village in England

After a long and successful career, Osbourne and Sharon have left sunny California for rainy England. The couple has a house in the famous village of Jordans.

Jordans is situated on the outskirt of England, but it is famous for housing the grave of William Penn, founder of the Province of Pennsylvania, which makes it a tourist attraction for many Americans.

Osbourne said they did not move because they hated Los Angeles, but the singer found the tax rates too high. However, if taxes go down, then the couple might consider moving back to California, he said.

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne Love Being Grandparents

Osbourne is currently a grandfather of nine. His and Sharon's son Jack has three children — Pearl Clementine, Andy Rose, and Minnie Theodora — from his previous marriage to Lisa Stelly. On July 9, 2022, Jack and his fiancée, Aree Gearhart, also welcomed their first child together.

Osbourne has three children from his previous marriage with Thelma Riley —Elliot, Louis, and Jessica. Louis has two kids, Elijah and Maia, and Jessica has three, Isabelle, Harry, and Kitty.

Meanwhile, Kelly also announced that she and her rocker boyfriend, Slipknot's Sid Wilson, were about to be parents, making her future child the 10th grandkid of her famous father.

Sharon and her husband love sharing their beautiful moments with their grandchildren on Instagram. She once shared a picture of her and Kelly taking the grandkids to Disneyland. Everyone looked cool with their sunglasses and peace signs.

Osbourne also shared a picture with one of his granddaughters pulling funny faces. They had the typical tongue-out rock star pose. The rock star genes seem to run deep in the Osbourne family.

The rockstar is proud of being a grandfather because he gets to be present in their lives. He confessed, "I have other grandchildren, but when I had my own kids, I was touring or in rehab. It's a lot better environment now. I can be of service to my family."

Osbourne and Sharon share every birthday celebration and holiday with their grandchildren and genuinely love spending time with their growing family.
