Jack Osbourne Tears Up on I’m A Celebrity as He Reflects on Ozzy’s Sudden Death

He says family support is helping him face the ITV jungle just months after the rocker's July death.

Overview

  • On Monday’s episode, he told campmate Lisa Riley the loss was a shock and that the family “didn’t know it would be that quick,” calling Ozzy’s final Birmingham show “the ultimate mic drop.”
  • Speaking in the Bush Telegraph, he said three to four months on he is “still navigating it all” and that the grief “still feels pretty fresh.”
  • He said Ozzy would be supportive of his participation, and he noted that his mother Sharon and sister Kelly backed his decision to join the series.
  • Reports citing the Mirror say a death certificate lists an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease with autonomic dysfunction as causes.
  • Ozzy was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2019 and performed a largely seated farewell with Black Sabbath at Villa Park weeks before his death at 76.
