Rock Icons Attend Private Ceremony Honoring Ozzy Osbourne

by Ruth A

Published August 1, 2025

Just one day after a public tribute in Birmingham drew massive crowds, a much quieter farewell took place in the English countryside. Family and close friends of Ozzy Osbourne gathered on July 25 for a private ceremony on his Buckinghamshire estate. The heavy metal icon, who died on July 22 at age 76, was laid to rest near a lake he loved—his favorite spot on his 250-acre property.

The event matched Osbourne’s larger-than-life personality. According to Fox News, an enormous floral tribute beside the lake spelled out “OZZY F—ING OSBOURNE.” While the public paid their respects the day before, this moment was for those who knew him intimately—musicians, family members, and lifelong companions.

Among those present was Marilyn Manson, whose appearance signaled the deep personal impact Osbourne had on his life and career. Manson has long spoken about Osbourne’s influence on his music. His attendance added to the emotional weight of the gathering. He stood alongside other legends like Zakk Wylde and Rob Zombie, both of whom were long-time collaborators and friends of Ozzy.

Metallica’s James Hetfield and Sir Elton John were also seen at the ceremony. Each guest reflected a different chapter of Osbourne’s legacy—his rebellious edge, musical genius, and emotional depth. For Marilyn Manson, this was more than a tribute. It was a farewell to a man who helped define his generation of rock.

The day before, thousands gathered in Birmingham, the city where Osbourne was born. As his hearse moved down Broad Street, fans cheered, “Ozzy, Ozzy, Ozzy, oi, oi, oi!” Sharon Osbourne and their children, Jack and Kelly, walked in solemn unity, honoring both the man and his legacy.

Even the British royal guards joined the national remembrance. The Band of the Coldstream Guards performed Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man”—a nod to one of Ozzy’s most iconic songs. Marilyn Manson, among countless others, saw it as a powerful symbol of Osbourne’s reach. From underground clubs to Buckingham Palace, his music spoke to everyone.
