Heavy metal’s Ozzy Osbourne has died ‘surrounded by love’ at the age of 76, a statement from his family said.
‘He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.’
It was only three weeks ago that the Black Sabbath frontman had performed from a throne on stage in Birmingham with his old bandmates.
In a statement, his family said tonight: ‘It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.’
