Legendary rock icon Ozzy Osbourne has passed away at the age of 76, with his official death certificate confirming the cause as a heart attack. The certificate also noted that he had been battling coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease for years.
According to reports, the document, filed in London and obtained by a leading newspaper, detailed the causes of death as cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, and coronary artery disease, with Parkinson’s disease listed as a contributing factor. The certificate was submitted by his daughter, Aimée Osbourne.
Ozzy had publicly shared his Parkinson’s diagnosis back in 2020, following a serious fall. Despite health challenges, he remained active in music and even performed one final show in his hometown of Birmingham just weeks before his death. During that emotional performance, seated on a black throne, he thanked his fans, saying, “I’ve been laid up for like six years. You have no idea how I feel — thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
Since the announcement of his passing on July 22, fans from across the country gathered in Birmingham to pay tribute to the heavy metal legend. His family confirmed he died surrounded by loved ones and requested privacy during this difficult time.
Ozzy Osbourne was not only known for his powerful voice and unforgettable stage presence with Black Sabbath but also became a surprising reality TV star later in life. His impact on rock music and pop culture leaves a legacy that fans will remember forever.
