BREAKING: Sharon and the Children were forced to make a HEARTBREAKING DECISION after Ozzy’s D3ath!

The reason for Ozzy Osbourne’s low-key private bur1al service on Thursday, July 31, nine days after the iconic rock star d13d on July 22 at the age of 76, has been revealed. The star-studded service, with family and invited guests, followed his funeral procession on Wednesday, July 30, in front of a crowd of mourners, which Birmingham City Council said stretched for more than a mile and was made up of tens of thousands of people.

Reportedly, despite making an emotional appearance at the procession, his widow, Sharon, 72,  wasn’t strong enough to hold a big service, hence the private affair. Prior to his internment, her friends had shared their concern for the former X-Factor judge, claiming the family wanted to keep things small in an effort to help with her grief. “In the end, he d13d peacefully at home with all the family with him. It’s a lovely house, and Sharon wanted to bring him back from LA,” a source said.

 

“I don’t know if she will feel strong enough to have a big memorial for all the people who want to say goodbye to him. We think she may want to bury him privately at home, in the garden,” they told Mail Online.

“Sharon is very, very fragile. This is the heaviest blow. Ozzy was her life. The whole point of her life was him. They were each other’s best friend. We don’t know what she will do or how she will cope,” the source told the publication.

Ozzy was laid to rest in the grounds of the couple’s £20m, 250-acre estate in Buckinghamshire. The former hellraiser was buried next to his ornamental lake.

His name was emblazoned in large purple letters across the lawn and gifts and tributes from fans lined the walls outside as security kept watch to ensure no unwanted gatecrashers descended on the gathering. The road leading to the mansion was closed from 1pm and police cars were spotted in the vicinity to ensure no one slipped through.

Guests had been sent a simple black invitation with a picture of a cross that read: “In loving memory of Ozzy Osbourne.” The private affair was extremely star-studded as Ozzy’s famous friends paid their last respects.

Just 110 of his nearest and dearest joined Sharon and his children, Jack, 39, Kelly, 40, Aimee, 41, and Louis, 50, who is Ozzy’s son from his first marriage to Thelma Riley, for the service.

His Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward were in attendance, as were Metallica stars James Hetfield and Robert Trujillo.

Yungblud, who wowed the crowd with his version of Ozzy’s classic song Changes at the Back to the Beginning concert, was also on the guest list. Controversial rocker Marilyn Manson was spotted en route to the service. As was filmmaker and musician Rob Zombie.
