Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy Osbourne was recently spotted in Los Angeles with his daughter, Aimee Osbourne. The singer looked frail as he needed a walking cane to aid his movement, while Aimee and a chaperone flanked him. Ozzy kept it casual with a long gray coat and comfy trousers, while Aimee looked colorful in her orange coat and patterned jumper.
The Prince of Darkness needed help getting into the car due to the aftermath of his quad-bike accident. Ozzy has also been candid about his battle with Parkinson’s disease as well as the many procedures he has had. “It’s pretty rough, man, and my balance is all f—d up,” he told Rolling Stone.

During his fourth surgery after a bad fall in 2019, doctors discovered a tumor in Ozzy’s spine, adding to his list of existing health issues. “It’s really knocked me about…I thought I’d be up and running after the second and third, but with the last one, they put a f—ing rod in my spine,” he complained. “They found a tumor in one of the vertebrae, so they had to dig all that out too.”

He also spoke about dying, admitting he is not scared to. “I don’t fear dying, but I don’t want to have a long, painful, and miserable existence,” he said. The singer is prepared to get euthanized should things get unbearable. “I like the idea that if you have a terminal illness, you can go to a place in Switzerland and get it done quickly,” he added.
Ozzy’s retirement
Ozzy canceled his headlining slot ahead of the August Power Trip festival, which was slated to be his first show in a long time. “Unfortunately, my body is telling me that I’m just not ready to perform yet and I am much too proud to have the first show that I do in nearly five years be half-assed,” his statement reads.
His son, Jack, confirmed that Ozzy might never tour again but would “do one-off shows— like festivals, gigs, things like that.” Despite the odds, he intends to release one more album this year and possibly “go back on the road.”
“I want to take my time with this one!” he quipped.
