The Osbournes were the pioneers for reality TV – and it’s now been revealed that Ozzy Osbourne’s final months were being filmed for a new TV documentary.

The Black Sabbath frontman d!ed, aged 76, surrounded by loved ones on Tuesday morning. His wife Sharon Osbourne, 72, and four of his children issued a joint statement, which read: “It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.

“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”

Days after his d3ath, an interview with his son Jack has resurfaced, in which he revealed his dad’s final moments were filmed for a BBC TV documentary.

The 10 part series, Home To Roost, originally planned to follow Ozzy and Sharon as they returned to their home in Buckinghamshire after 20 years of living in America. However, it’s now said to be pivoted towards more of a tribute for the star.

“Right now it’ll take place over the Sabbath era and early 1980s. We’re definitely going for a more adult rating for the film,” Jack told the Mail’s Weekend Magazine. “This is by no means going to be a fluff piece.”

Jack worked as co-producer on the biopic and promised all the chaos and mayhem we all know and love, as well as a focus on Ozzy and Sharon’s love story, which began in the 1970s.

Ozzy’s youngest son Jack also confirmed that his father was working on an autobiography titled Last Rites before he d!ed – which is expected to be released in autumn this year.

Just weeks before his tragic d3ath, Ozzy performed for the final time at his hometown in Birmingham, taking to the stage with his Black Sabbath bandmates at Villa Park.

In a day that celebrated his five decades in the industry, some of the biggest names in the industry joined together to give him the send off he deserved.

At the end of the celebration, the group presented Ozzy with a cake, which featured a detailed portrait of the star to honour him and celebrate the end of their run together as a band.

The band’s co-founder Tony Iommi told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme on Wednesday: “He loved what he did, he loved music, he loved playing together, and I’m so glad we had the opportunity of getting together again to do the [farewell] show.”

He added:”It was brilliant being with all the guys again, and the atmosphere, and it was brilliant for Ozzy because he really wanted to do that, he felt at home there and it was good for all of us.”
