Sharon Osbourne has made a big decision following the death of her husband Ozzy Osbourne. The Black Sabbath star died just weeks after his final gig and he was laid to rest in the grounds of their home.
However, Sharon has decided she needs to be closer to her family and will now spend half the year at least in the United States with her kids and grandchildren. She is a grandmother to Jack’s daughters – Pearl, Andy Rose, Minnie Theodora, and Maple Artemis – and another on the way and also to Kelly’s two-year-old son, Sidney.

A source told The Sun that Sharon plays to spend “half the year at least” on the West Coast, with a potential look to move there permanently within a couple of years to be closer to her family.
“Sharon had initially stuck with the plan of remaining in the UK like she and Oz had planned, continuing to work, but enjoying her time in their beautiful countryside retreat,” the source said.
“Genuinely there was a moving daily moment when Sharon would go out to the small plot by the lake at Welders where Oz was buried to be with him. Kelly and Jack were both worried about their mom because they know how traumatic the loss of Ozzy has been to her, and also being separated from her grandchildren has been tough.”
The source added: “So they have held many conversations about what to do, and Sharon has decided that returning to Los Angeles for fifty percent of the time is the right move. It allows her a change of scenery and the chance to celebrate with the grandkids.”
Jack had previously spoken of his own concerns over the family moving to the UK. He said in 2023 of their plan to move back to the UK: “I’m the only one in the family who thinks it’s a terrible idea. They are going to be thousands of miles away from me, Kelly, all the grandkids. I’m like, ‘What are you guys going to do all day? Wander around the house?'”
Kelly, meanwhile, has been open about her grief, admitting it has been touch. She shared a poignant post, which read: “Some grief doesn’t end. It changes shape. It becomes the quiet weight you learn to carry, the ache woven into your days.”
