Ozzy Osbourne’s daughter Jessica broke her silence with a quiet tribute hours after his death — and following her exclusion from the family’s public farewell.
On the morning of Wednesday, July 22, 2025, 76-year-old heavy metal singer and music icon Ozzy Osbourne died. His family confirmed his death around noon through a statement shared on Ozzy’s official accounts.
The statement said the legendary Black Sabbath frontman was “surrounded by love” at the time of his passing. It was signed by his widow, Sharon, and four of his children — Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis.
Notably absent from the statement was Jessica Osbourne. Jessica and Louis are the children of Ozzy and his first wife, Thelma Reese. Jessica is his eldest daughter, and has long stayed out of the family’s limelight.
It’s unclear why the family statement failed to mention Jessica — while including her brother and half-siblings — and whether it was an accidental oversight or a deliberate omission.
Several hours after the official announcement of Ozzy’s passing, Jessica took to Instagram to share her own reaction.
