Ozzy Osbourne was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2003, which has been getting worse ever since, so he stopped all touring in 2023, and at the moment it looks like that won't change. He was supposed to perform a concert in Hungary in 2022, but he had to postpone that concert, and then he had to cancel the new date.
He is currently focusing on his recovery, but the loss of his loyal companion, Rocky, with whom he spent a decade and a half, has also been a serious blow.
2 days ago I lost my dear friend Rocky who was by my side for 15 years. See you on the other side my friend. I will love you forever
“The musician wrote in an Instagram post,” he said.
Naturally, fans immediately flooded the comments section and tried to reassure the singer of their sympathy and support. Dogs have always been important in the lives of Ozzy Osbourne and his family, and the four-legged pooches have appeared on several of the family's reality shows, so you can even see Rocky on screen. There has never been a time in the Osbourne family's life when they didn't have dogs in the house, but losing each one is a huge blow for them.
Trouble is coming
Ozzy Osbourne is going through a tough time right now. Not only is he dealing with the loss of his girlfriend, but he’s also dealing with his Parkinson’s disease. He’s been battling the disease for over twenty years, but it’s gotten worse in recent years. In 2023, he told Rolling Stone:
It’s like saying goodbye to the best relationship of your life. At the beginning of my illness, when I had to stop touring, I was so angry at myself, at the doctors, at the world. I’m not going to stand around and be a cold Ozzy trying to get sympathy. What the hell does that mean? I’m not going to go out in a fucking wheelchair. I saw Phil Collins perform not long ago, who has pretty much the same problem as me. He can go out in a wheelchair. I can’t do that.
His wife Sharon Osbourne also spoke about how her husband is constantly trying to keep his voice at a level and is taking singing lessons, but his illness makes it impossible for him to perform at all-night concerts or go on longer trips or tours. At the beginning of the year, you could read about two more farewell concerts in the news, which Sharon Osbourne also confirmed at the time, but there has been no news about them since.
Aside from the music, there has also been talk of another reality show, where the singer and his wife leave Los Angeles to return to England. Although the BBC crew has been filming the famous rock duo since 2023, the big move has yet to happen, so the series has also been delayed.
