Sharon Osbourne's Heartbreak: Losing Her Husband and Beloved Dog in Quick Succession
SHARON OSBOURNE'S HEARTBREAK CONTINUES AS SHE LOSES BELOVED DOG ELVIS JUST WEEKS AFTER OZZY'S PASSING
The news is just getting worse for Sharon Osbourne, as she's suffered yet another devastating loss with the passing of her loyal canine companion Elvis. The 73-year-old TV personality and matriarch of the Osbourne family has been left heartbroken once again, barely finding solace after losing her husband Ozzy to heart failure just weeks prior.
The Black Sabbath legend may have been a rockstar, but his death on July 22 at age 76 was a stark reminder that even the strongest among us can't escape the cruel hand of fate. Sharon's Instagram post is a poignant tribute to Elvis, who had been by her side for an impressive 14 years. She penned: "I can’t believe I am posting this but my darling Elvis passed away this week. He gave me 14 precious years. He was by my side until the end. Rest in peace my darling boy!"
Daughter Kelly, 40, also took to social media to express her grief, suggesting that Ozzy must have needed Elvis' furry companionship in heaven. She wrote: "It is with a heavy heart that I let you all know that we lost Elvis this week. Our guardian angel has left us. Elvis did not leave my side since my dad passed... He helped get me through the darkest moment of my life."
The outpouring of love and support from fans has been overwhelming, with many taking to social media to offer their condolences and reassure Sharon that Elvis is now reunited with Ozzy in a better place. One fan wrote: "Oh noooooo I’m so sorry Sharon I know he was always right by your side. Sending you so much love" while another added: "So sorry dear Sharon".
This latest loss comes on the heels of Sharon's visit to a giant pumpkin mural of her late husband, which she and her kids Jack and Kelly visited last week with a brave face. The 35-foot high sculpture, made from over 10,000 pumpkins, is an incredible tribute to Ozzy, who received a whopping 70% of the vote in a public poll conducted by farm owners Tom and Ian Nelson.
The family was visibly emotional as they took in the stunning artwork at Sunnyfields Farm in Totton, Hampshire. Kelly's fiancé Sid Wilson and their son Sidney were also present for the viewing. The mural will remain on display until Halloween, but for Sharon and her family, it's a bittersweet reminder of the memories they've shared with Ozzy.
As reported by thescholarlynote.com, Sharon has been struggling to cope with the loss of her beloved husband, who had been battling health issues for years. His passing sent shockwaves through the music world, and fans have been rallying around Sharon and their kids in their time of need.
The new BBC One documentary "Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home" is set to chronicle the couple's return to the UK after more than three decades living in the United States. The heart-wrenching series will delve into Sharon's pain over Ozzy's final years, as she nursed him through painful operations and tried to help him cope with his debilitating Parkinson's disease.
It's a poignant reminder that even the most iconic rockstars are not immune to life's cruel twists and turns. As Sharon navigates this dark period in her life, fans around the world are holding onto hope that she'll find strength in the love and support of those around her.
