Videos of Ozzy Osbourne's Mourning Family at His Funeral Spark Questions Online

Videos from Ozzy Osbourne's funeral have ignited online debate, as fans question the absence of some of the rock legend's children while his immediate family mourned publicly in Birmingham, England.

July 30, 2025, marked a somber day as thousands of people filled the streets of Birmingham, England, to bid farewell to legendary rock star Ozzy Osbourne.

Sharon Osbourne and her children, Jack and Kelly, arrived hand in hand at the celebration of life. They appeared visibly distraught, with Sharon unable to hide her tears as she walked.

The hearse carrying Ozzy made its way through Birmingham, traveling down Broad Street toward the Black Sabbath bench, which was unveiled on the canal bridge in 2019.

Also present were Ozzy and Sharon's eldest daughter, Aimee, and his rarely-seen son, Louis. Aimee was photographed crying as the family waved to the crowd of supporters who had gathered to honor the rock and roll icon.

One fan described the emotional scene, writing, "You can see how much they are hurting. The oldest daughter, Aimee, her whole body visibly shaking. So sad for them. Those first days of a big loss you are just in shock and everything is really just a blur. [sic]"

Before marrying Sharon, Ozzy was married to Thelma Riley from 1971 to 1982. They first met during a night out in Birmingham and soon began dating. They rented a flat together, and by 1971, they were married in a registry office.

"I thought it was what you did: get some dough, find a chick, get married, settle down, go to the pub. It was a terrible mistake," Ozzy wrote in his book, "I Am Ozzy."

Ultimately, he admitted they only stayed together as long as they did for the sake of their children — Jessica and Louis — and Thelma's son, Elliot, whom he adopted.

Despite staying together for the sake of Louis, Jessica, and Elliot, it appears the relationship between Ozzy and his older children had always been tumultuous. In fact, Ozzy once admitted he could not even remember when Louis and Jessica were born.

In the 2011 documentary film "God Bless Ozzy Osbourne," Louis opened up about Ozzy's alcoholism. "When he was around and he wasn't [drunk], he was a great father. But that was kind of seldom, really," he revealed.

Jessica also quipped, "I don't remember being put to bed or having a bath by dad or anything like that."

While Louis was present at the funeral ceremony, Jessica and Elliot were noticeably absent. Their absence also drew attention because they were not mentioned in the family's statement announcing Ozzy's death, which was signed by Sharon and their children Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis.

Fans online quickly questioned this. "Where are his. other two children from his previous marriage? [sic]" one woman asked. "I'm wondering if his three other kids are there," another person questioned.

While many gathered to honor the Prince of Darkness, not everyone agreed on how the public memorial unfolded. As footage of the procession spread online, debates quickly emerged over the tone of the event, with some fans criticizing the atmosphere while others defended it as fitting for Ozzy's larger-than-life legacy.

The funeral was live-streamed worldwide, but some news outlets uploaded shorter clips highlighting key moments from the memorial. One, in particular, showed his widow, Sharon Osbourne, and their children, Jack and Kelly Osbourne, getting out of their car as they arrived at the Black Sabbath Bench.

In the background, many fans and residents of Birmingham were seen standing and cheering behind barricades. Some were even chanting, "Ozzy!" Security personnel were also present, while a local brass band played a rather lively tune.

It was this choice of music and the shouts from the crowd that ignited backlash online. On Facebook, one person wrote, "I don't understand less is more. silence should have been a wonderful tribute [sic]."

Another commented, "I also think it's also disrespectful. - Sharon is clearly mourning ozzys death and the crowd are like they are going to a concert [sic]." A third added, "The crowd should of shown a sign of respect by being silent and letting his family have this moment 😢 [sic]."

One person asked, "What are the crowd screaming for, it not a concert or a football match, have some respect [sic]." On X, many worried for Sharon and the family, with a viewer noting, "It feels wrong to film this . Her grief is raw [sic]."

Another added, "Playing the happiest music when a family is grieving is actully terrible [sic]." However, in response, one person countered, "Ozzy's wishes was to not have a 'mope fest [sic],'" while one netizen clarified, "They played Sabbath and Ozzy songs."

Regardless of online opinions on funeral appropriateness, the entire event was an emotional farewell to the icon, and the heartbreak can be seen on all the Osbournes' faces, especially Sharon's.

Photos from the service captured the rawness of their feelings. Sharon was leaning on her children for support. The pain of losing Ozzy, her husband of many years and partner through every twist and turn of life, was written all over her.

The family stood side by side in silence, united not only in mourning but in the deep love they shared for the man they were saying goodbye to.

At one point during the ceremony, Sharon raised her hand in the iconic rock-and-roll salute Ozzy made famous throughout his career. That single, heartfelt gesture was captured on video.

Despite this show of strength, many people across social media were struck by how fragile and devastated she looked.

One person wrote, "She looks absolutely broken and so frail💔," while another added, "I hate seeing Sharon so fragile :'( R.I.P Ozzy Osbourne. Rest easy."

It wasn't just her visible grief that touched people; it was the small, intimate detail around her neck. "Oh poor Sharon. She looks so frail bless her heart. I see shes wearing Ozzys wedding band on her necklace [sic]😢 ❤️," someone noticed. That wedding band quickly became one of the most talked-about parts of the service.

Fans on Reddit reflected on its significance. One wrote, "She looks so thin & broken. I really feel so sad for her. I know some people don't like her but she was everything to Ozzy for decades. They were together constantly. This has to be so incredible hard for her [sic]."

Another shared, "She has his wedding ring around her neck....I lost my dad unexpectedly last November, this hurts more than I would like [sic]." Someone else simply asked, "Is she wearing his wedding band around her neck?"

On Instagram, the grief was just as palpable. Under TMZTV's post, a fan commented, "I hope Sharon can hold on. So looks so pained and full of grief." Another wrote, "His ring around her neck 😢 I can feel their pain rip," while a third added, "She is wearing his wedding band around her neck ❤️😢."

Now, as the world mourns the death of one of heavy metal's most legendary figures, it's the quiet moments of Sharon's tears, her children's support, and that wedding ring close to her heart that are leaving the deepest impression.
