Ozzy Osbourne's heartbreaking final love notes to Sharon revealed

A new BBC One documentary reveals intimate details about Ozzy Osbourne’s final months, including the love notes he left around the house for his wife, Sharon.

Sharon reveals that Ozzy is "very romantic" and says he leaves her little notes around the house. The notes can be seen on screen saying things like ‘You are the love of my life’ and ‘my baby girl I love you’.

Other notes read: "Ya know what? I love ya", and "Dearest darling Sharon, I don't half love you." Many of the messages have been framed by Sharon and remain a lasting memory in her home.

The new trailer for the show offers a glimpse of the sprawling mansion, and Sharon says they "always referred to this as home".

In-between clips of their English country home, Osbourne says "I'm so looking forward to an English summer" and "I feel like I'm finally home". Their son Jack says the family all "scattered" after their reality TV show The Osbournes, and adds: "It's like we're back together again."

Sharon, 72, reflects on their marriage and the singer’s death on July 22 at 76, after a long struggle with Parkinson’s disease. "I always always told Ozzy, when you’re 70, we say goodbye," she says in the film. Daughter Kelly, however, disagrees: "I don’t think it’s possible for either one of them to retire ever."

The 60-minute film follows the couple and their two youngest children, Kelly and Jack - as well as their close friends, as they plan the next stage of their lives together in their Buckinghamshire home.

The documentary was initially due to be shown on BBC One on August 18, but was replaced with an episode of Fake Or Fortune? with the broadcaster saying it had been "moved in the schedules".

Shortly after the documentary was postponed, a BBC spokesperson said: "Our sympathies are with the Osbourne family at this difficult time. We are respecting the family's wishes to wait a bit longer before airing this very special film."

Osbourne died aged 76 on July 22 from a reported heart attack, just weeks after reuniting with his band for a farewell concert at Villa Park in his home city of Birmingham.

The BBC documentary was originally conceived as a series, announced in 2022 and called Home To Roost, and was to document Osbourne and his wife Sharon's move back from the US, where they had lived for more than two decades.

But the project, filmed over three years, "evolved as Ozzy's health deteriorated" into the one-hour film, the BBC said.

Paramount+ has announced its own feature-length film about the late Black Sabbath frontman, Ozzy: No Escape From Now - which will launch on October 7 on the streaming platform.

Ozzy and Sharon were married for 43 years, from their wedding on July 4, 1982, until Ozzy's death in July. Their long-lasting marriage spanned over four decades and was a central part of their public lives, especially after their reality show The Osbournes aired.

The new documentary also highlights both Ozzy’s health battles and his determination to keep performing. Diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2020, he announced in May that he was in "heavy training" for what would become his final concert.

"By hook or by crook. I’ve got to make it there," he said of the Black Sabbath reunion at Birmingham’s Villa Park.

At the Back to the Beginning show, he addressed the crowd with what became his last public words: "I don’t know what to say, man, I’ve been laid up for like six years.

"You have no idea how I feel - thank you from the bottom of my heart." He described the performance as a farewell to live shows: "It’s a goodbye as far as my live performances go, and what a way to go out."

After two decades in California, Ozzy and Sharon had long hoped to return to Britain. In 2022, Ozzy criticised life in the U.S., saying: "Everything’s f***ing ridiculous [in America]."

Last month, it was confirmed his final days were spent in Birmingham, fulfilling his wish to come home. Friends said his death came sooner than expected, but his children were with him.

Daughters Kelly, 40, and Aimee, 41, had travelled from Los Angeles to be at his side. “It is terribly sad for all of them,” a close friend told the Daily Mail.

"They really hoped he would be able to carry on for a bit longer. But it’s so lovely that he had his children around him during his last days.".

Sharon And Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home will air on BBC One at 9pm on October 2 and will also be available on BBC iPlayer.
