Ozzy Osbourne’s $220 Million Will Reveals His Deep Devotion to Family
The music world is still mourning the loss of rock icon Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away on July 22 at the age of 76 after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease. Known around the globe as the “Prince of Darkness,” Ozzy’s legacy extends far beyond music—his final wishes revealed a deep commitment to his family that fans are now learning more about.
Ozzy’s funeral took place on July 30 in his hometown of Birmingham, England, where thousands gathered to pay tribute to the legendary Black Sabbath frontman. But even as fans honored his towering influence on rock music, details of his carefully prepared estate plan began to emerge—offering a new glimpse into the man behind the myth.
Reports confirm that Ozzy had a meticulously planned will in place before his passing, with an estate estimated at $220 million. One of the most remarkable aspects of his plan was his insistence that all of his children be included, regardless of whether they had lived their lives in the public eye. “Ozzy was adamant that no child would be cut out of his will,” a source close to the family told RadarOnline.
Osbourne was a father to six children across two marriages. With his first wife, Thelma Riley, he had Elliot Kingsley, Jessica Osbourne, and Louis Osbourne. After marrying Sharon Osbourne in 1982, he had three more children: Aimee, Kelly, and Jack. While some of his children—like Kelly and Jack—grew up in the spotlight, others, such as Aimee and Elliot, maintained a lower profile. Still, each was remembered equally in his estate.
A significant share of the estate goes to his longtime partner Sharon Osbourne, now 72. His children, including the more private Aimee, will also receive equal portions of the remaining inheritance—reportedly a third each between Aimee, Kelly, and Jack. This fair and thoughtful division underscores how central family remained to Ozzy, even as his fame spanned generations.
Just weeks before his passing, Ozzy made one final appearance on stage at Villa Park for Black Sabbath’s emotional “Back to the Beginning” farewell concert. Despite his health struggles—including a 2003 quad-bike accident and spinal injuries—he performed seated on a throne, raising over $189 million for charities supporting Parkinson’s research and children’s hospitals.
In what would become his final interview, Ozzy reflected on his life and legacy, saying, “Survival is my legacy.” He added, “People still want to see me, still want to buy my records—so why should I stop?” His words, like his music, continue to resonate with millions.
Ozzy Osbourne’s final acts—both public and private—cement his reputation not just as a rock legend, but as a man who never lost sight of what mattered most: family, loyalty, and connection.
