Jack Osbourne has recalled the morning his father Ozzy Osbourne died - describing the final hours of the Black Sabbath frontman's life as calm and routine

In the podcast interview, Jack described the final morning of Ozzy's life and said the family had not expected his death to come so quickly, and said about how the day unfolded in an ordinary way: "It was a few days after I got back that he passed, and we were... even the morning that he passed, it was like, it wasn't anything dramatic at all."

Jack added: "He was up, he was doing his thing, had some breakfast, and that was it."

Despite Ozzy's long-term health issues, Jack said the family had not anticipated the timing of Ozzy's death.

Jack added: "Obviously everyone knew he was sick, but it wasn't... he was really gearing up for the (Black Sabbath final) show, so he was exercising a lot and moving around.

"He was fired up. But yeah, we weren't expecting it to be as quick as it was.

"I just think he was done... I do think we have a choice, to a degree."

Ozzy's official cause of death was listed as cardiac arrest, with Parkinson's disease - with which he had been diagnosed in 2003 - recorded as a contributing factor in his passing.

Ozzy known for songs including Crazy Train, had continued exercising and rehearsing in the weeks leading up to what became Black Sabbath's final performance in Birmingham.

Members of Ozzy's family - including his wife Sharon Osbourne, 73, his son Jack and his daughter Kelly Osbourne, 41 - have previously spoken publicly about the musician since his death.

Sharon and Kelly appeared at the 2026 BRIT Awards to accept a Lifetime Achievement award on Ozzy's behalf.

Speaking during the ceremony, Sharon said Ozzy would not have enjoyed the formalities.

She added: "I know that Ozzy is looking down on us all right now, and I know what he is thinking.

"He hated to make speeches. He hated listening to speeches.

"He'd be saying, 'Hey, missus, shut the f*** up!'

"But I'm not going to... He always wanted to do better, both personally and professionally.

"He never felt that words were enough to thank everybody for the life that he was given and for the life that he led.

"He may not be here, but he left us one amazing body of work that will never be forgotten by the country that made him."
