Ozzy Osbourne is still battling health problems as he was recently seen departing a medical facility in a wheelchair. He previously suffered a debilitating spinal injury at his residence in 2019, which led to the cancellation of the European leg of his farewell show which had previously been rescheduled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In February this year, the singer officially announced to retire from touring amidst his health challenges. Still, it seems the singer couldn’t live by the new reality as he was billed to perform at the Power Trip Festival in Indio, California, this week—an event that was supposed to mark his major comeback. Sadly, the singer had to cancel his engagement at die minute due to his health challenges.

A recent paparazzi photograph captured the moment when Osbourne received assistance while being guided into an SUV at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. This is the 74-year-old’s first public appearance since his withdrawal from the Power Trip Festival, and he was departing the hospital while seated in a wheelchair.

Despite the circumstances, the rock star managed to maintain his signature look as he went for an all-black attire. To add a touch of sophistication, he complemented his clothing with a textured, striped blazer and a comfortable pair of trainers.
Ozzy Osbourne has been plagued with many health challenges over the years.
The Prince of Darkness has faced several health challenges throughout his life. In December 2003, the musician was involved in a severe ATV accident at his estate in England. He suffered multiple injuries, including a fractured collarbone, eight fractured ribs, and a neck vertebra that was displaced and compressed, which necessitated surgery.
However, 2019 was more challenging for him, beginning with his hospitalization due to flu-related complications, which unfortunately progressed into pneumonia. Shortly after, he suffered a massive fall at his LA home, which triggered his previous ATV injuries and forced him to take things slow.
