‘Heartbroken' Sharon Osbourne leaning on kids after Ozzy's death: ‘Laughing through the tears'
'Sharon's heartbroken but very proud of the life the family built together,' an insider told People Monday, referring to her and the Black Sabbath's children: Aimee, 41, Kelly, 40, and Jack, 39.
'Everyone's rallying around her. She's been the rock of this family for decades, and now it's her turn to be held up.'
The insider explained that 'the kids are making sure [Sharon is] never alone,' adding, 'They've been with her constantly, sharing stories, laughing through the tears and just being together.'
'There's a lot of pain, but also a lot of comfort from the family time that they got to enjoy up until the very end,' the source said.
Reps for Sharon, 72, weren't immediately available to Page Six for comment.
Ozzy's family announced his passing in a statement obtained by Page Six on July 22. He was 76.
'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,' the statement read.
'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.'
According to People, the Prince of Darkness' 'final days were spent in England, surrounded by family, music and in the place he called home.'
An insider told the outlet that Ozzy and Sharon — whom he married in 1982 — relocated to Buckinghamshire in 2023 for their 'final chapter' amid his deteriorating health.
'It was about creating peace and the best life possible together in their final chapter,' the source said. 'The path back to England wasn't easy. His health has been fragile for years.'
Aside from his three children with Sharon, Ozzy was also the father to Elliot Kingsley, Jessica Osbourne and Louis Osbourne, whom he shared with his ex-wife, Thelma Riley.
Ozzy and Riley were married from 1971 to 1982.
While Jessica and Louis weren't present when their famous father died, they subtly honored him on their social media accounts.
Ozzy, who performed in Black Sabbath's Farewell show on July 5, was battling Parkinson's disease and injuries sustained from a 2003 quad bike accident leading up to his passing.
In 2020, he announced his Parkinson's diagnosis on 'Good Morning America.'

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY – Our First FULL Look at Tom Holland's Amazing New Suit! — GeekTyrant
Spider-Man is back, and he's rocking a whole new vibe. Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures just dropped the first full look at Tom Holland's latest Spider-suit for Spider-Man: Brand New Day in a new video, and it's sure to get fans excited! The suit made a brief appearance in yesterday's teaser, but now we've got the full reveal, and it's designed with a clear nod to the suits worn by Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, this version brings together the designs of both Spidey worlds. There's the deep, matte red, the navy blue mesh texture reminiscent of Garfield's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 , and the raised black webbing that channels the Raimi-era aesthetic. Right in the center, the spider emblem is larger and more angular, combining classic boldness with the sleek lines seen in Holland's earlier MCU appearances. The suit also looks like it's more homemade and there's no Stark tech. No gadgets, no AI, just Peter Parker doing it all on his own. It's a perfect reflection of where the character is now. As you know, Peter was stripped of his identity after the memory wipe in Spider-Man: No Way Home , and starting over without his former support system. Set photos have already started popping up online, with production kicking off in Glasgow, Scotland, once again subbing in for New York City. Keep your eyes peeled, because more glimpses of the new suit are sure to surface. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is slated for release on July 31, 2026, as part of Phase Six of the MCU. Returning writers Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers are handling the script, which reportedly takes Peter back to being a street-level hero in NYC. The movie is said to be relatively standalone but is expected to set the stage for next December's massive crossover Avengers: Doomsday . The film's cast is stacked alongside Holland, featuring Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Sadie Sink, Liza Colón-Zayas, Jon Bernthal, Mark Ruffalo, and Michael Mando. Spider-Man: Brand New Day swings into theaters July 31, 2026. Check out the video below and let us know what you think of the new suit!

Statue of Birmingham City legend Francis unveiled
A bronze statue of former Birmingham City and England forward Trevor Francis has been unveiled at the club's St Andrews stadium to honour his legacy. The former striker died of a heart attack at the age of 69 in 2023 and the statue was unveiled on Saturday ahead of the Trevor Francis Memorial pre-season friendly against Nottingham Forest, another of his former clubs. A friend of the footballer and lifelong Blues supporter, Brummie comedian Jasper Carrott, was at the unveiling. He said it was "a very emotional day". Carrott said Francis had been "more than just a footballer", adding he was a fantastic human being and it had been a "privilege" to know him. Several former teammates who played alongside Francis were also there as club chief executive Jeremy Dale unveiled the statue, created by sculptor Douglas Jennings. "He wasn't just a footballer, he was our footballer," Dale said. "Trevor, speaking personally , was my boyhood hero. He was the kind of player who made you fall in love with the beautiful game." Speaking of Francis in his time as manager of the Blues, he said he gave people "pride, passion and a belief that this club could rise". Francis made his debut for Birmingham as a 16-year-old and became British football's first £1m player when he left the Blues to join Forest in 1979. A few weeks later, he scored the winning goal as Forest won the first of their two successive European Cups. Garry Birtles, who played alongside Francis at Nottingham Forest, described him as "one of the most unassuming people you could ever meet" and "a joy to be with". Jasper Carrott hosted a sell-out memorial concert in to honour Francis as "a proper send-off" for his friend at the Symphony Hall in Birmingham earlier this year. Money raised went to the Trevor Francis Foundation, part of the Birmingham City Foundation, to fund two football tournaments for local children.
