The death of Ozzy Osbourne hit the music world hard, but the most powerful detail to emerge since his passing has nothing to do with platinum records, sold out arenas, or his decades long reputation as the Prince of Darkness. It came from his wife Sharon, and it came in the form of three simple words.
In her first interview since Ozzy’s death, Sharon Osbourne sat down with Piers Morgan and revealed what her husband said to her just hours before he died. According to Sharon, Ozzy woke her during the night and asked her for one thing or another.
“And he said, ‘Kiss me,’” Sharon recalled. “And then he said, ‘Hug me tight.’”

That was it. Those were Ozzy Osbourne’s last words to the woman he loved for more than four decades.
Not screaming. Not dramatic. Not dark. Just intimate, human, and deeply personal.
Sharon said Ozzy knew it was time. He had been struggling with serious health problems for years, including Parkinson’s disease, and had recently performed a farewell concert in his hometown of Birmingham, England, reportedly against doctors’ advice. She explained that he had been restless at night, getting up repeatedly, and that something felt different. After asking for that kiss and that hug, Ozzy went downstairs to work out, where he suffered a medical event that led to his death. He never spoke to her again.
“If only I’d have told him I loved him more. If only I’d have held him tighter,” Sharon said through tears.
That moment stands in stark contrast to the public caricature of Ozzy Osbourne that followed him for years. The bat biting, the outrageous headlines, the shock rock persona. Strip all of that away, and in the final hours of his life, Ozzy was simply a husband asking his wife for affection and comfort.
Sharon also revealed that Ozzy had been making peace with death. He told her about dreams where he walked among people he did not recognize, seeing them night after night, silently observing one another. Sharon said he understood what it meant. He was ready.
Adding another layer to the story, a Tennessee pastor revealed that in Ozzy’s final years he had become more open to hearing about faith and the Gospel. Pastor Dylan Novak shared that he personally gave Ozzy a customized Bible, which Ozzy reportedly kept by his bedside and proudly showed visitors. Novak said Ozzy had long identified as a Christian, even if he struggled to understand Scripture.
Whether you loved his music or hated it, the final image of Ozzy Osbourne is not chaos or controversy. It is a man asking his wife to kiss him and hold him tight before stepping into the unknown. For all the noise that surrounded his life, his last words were quiet, loving, and painfully human.
