In the months following the heartbreaking loss of her husband, Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon Osbourne is reportedly preparing for a significant new chapter in her life — one that could take her back and forth across the Atlantic.
Ozzy, the legendary Black Sabbath frontman, passed away last July at the age of 76 after ongoing health battles. He and Sharon had shared more than four decades of marriage, tying the knot in 1982 and building one of rock’s most enduring — and at times turbulent — love stories. Roughly 15 months before his death, the couple made the emotional decision to return to the UK so Ozzy could spend his final years in his homeland. Born and raised in Birmingham, he had long expressed his wish not to be buried in the United States. After his passing, he was laid to rest on the grounds of the couple’s Buckinghamshire estate, fulfilling that deeply personal request.
At the time, sources suggested Sharon intended to remain full-time at the family’s English home, honoring the life they had rebuilt there together. However, new reports indicate her plans may be evolving.
According to those close to the family, Sharon is now considering splitting her time between the UK and Los Angeles to be nearer to her children — Aimee, Kelly, and Jack — and her growing number of grandchildren. The reported shift in perspective came after she spent her first Christmas without Ozzy in California, surrounded by her children and their families. Being immersed in the warmth and chaos of family life is said to have underscored how isolating life in England can feel without her husband by her side.
Friends claim Sharon has since purchased an apartment in Los Angeles and intends to spend at least half the year there. Some even suggest the arrangement could eventually become permanent, though no official confirmation has been made.
Those who know Sharon say the decision is less about leaving the UK behind and more about staying present for life’s milestones — birthdays, school events, holidays — the everyday moments that mean even more after loss. Having already endured her first Christmas and other major holidays without Ozzy, she reportedly doesn’t want to miss additional precious time with her family.
Since Ozzy’s passing, Sharon has largely remained out of the spotlight, choosing privacy during her grieving process. Still, she has slowly begun making occasional public appearances again. She attended the Grammy Awards alongside her children, where the family watched an emotional tribute honoring Ozzy’s legacy. In a recent interview, Sharon opened up briefly about his final days, describing their bond as irreplaceable and stating she cannot imagine ever remarrying.
For now, Sharon appears to be balancing memory and movement — keeping one foot rooted in the home she shared with Ozzy in England, while opening another door in California where her children and grandchildren are building their own futures.
