After several surgeries Tony Iommi’s doctor has just comfirmed that Tony Iommi is ………
Black Sabbath legend Ozzy Osbourne and his wife Sharon originally declared in 2022 that they planned to return to the UK after residing in the United States for more than two decades.
The couple, both in their seventies, stated that they wished to leave Los Angeles and return to their home country, but two years later they have yet to make the move.
During the most recent episode of the Osbournes Podcast, the couple provided an update on their upcoming move, with Sharon saying that her husband’s health was preventing them from creating a thorough plan.
When asked about the move, Ozzy, 75, replied, “We’re trying to get on an aircraft.” Sharon, who has been married to the heavy metal legend for almost 40 years, confessed that while that was true, Ozzy’s health concerns were also a major factor in the delay.
“It just seems that every time we’re about to depart, something occurs with Ozzy’s health,” TV personality Sharon, 71, explained. “We will get there.” She continued, “We want to go back so badly, but we’ll get there. “Will we, Ozzy?” “Yes, we will,” he replied.
Ozzy’s health problems began immediately after moving to the United States, when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2003. In January of this year, he disclosed on the podcast that he’d had “seven procedures in the preceding five years,” with his fourth spinal surgery scheduled for September 2023.
He also sees doctors for Parkinson’s disease symptoms. According to the NHS, this is a disorder in which some areas of the brain gradually deteriorate over time. Parkinson’s disease’s key symptoms include uncontrollable shaking of certain body parts, delayed movement, and stiff and inflexible muscles.
Ozzy has previously stated that his decision to depart was mostly motivated by the United States’ volatile political climate and gun violence.
“Everything’s f***ing ridiculous there,” he told The Observer in an interview in August 2022, when he first declared his plans to return to Britain. “I’m fed up with people being slaughtered every day. God knows how many people have been shot in school shootings. And there was the mass shooting at the Vegas show. “It’s crazy.”
“I don’t want to die in America,” Ozzy explained. He said, referring to a well-known cemetery in Los Angeles: “I don’t want to be buried at f***ing Forest Lawn. I am English. I want to be back. It’s just time for me to return home.”
Sharon agreed. She stated, “America has changed dramatically. It’s not the United States of America at all. There’s nothing unified about it. “It’s an odd place to live right now.”
Ozzy was born in Marston Green, West Midlands, in December 1948, while Sharon was born in Brixton, London, in October 1952.

Black Sabbath’s Geezer Butler claims The Beatles “had a major impact.”
The 74-year-old bassist and major lyricist of the famed heavy metal group, which established in 1968, has praised the legendary Liverpool band for creating a “huge explosion of British pop music” in the Swinging Sixties and thereafter.
He told Michigan radio station WRKR, “They had a huge influence since there was none else like them at the time.
“Up until then, my brothers were into Elvis [Presley], Eddie Cochran, and Buddy Holly, that kind of thing. And there were no authentic English [rock bands].
“All the English rock and rollers were attempting to sound American and imitate an American [band], but they never succeeded. When the Beatles came up, they had a wholly unique sound.”
Geezer continued, “And they were all literally from Liverpool, which is 90 miles from where we were born.” And it just gave us faith that British bands could be successful.
“And as soon as the Beatles became big, you got The Rolling Stones, The Kinks, The Who, Herman’s Hermits, and an explosion of British pop music.”
In fact, the “Let it Be” hitmakers prompted frontman Ozzy Osbourne, 75, to pursue a career in music.
He previously stated, “I hail from the backstreets of Aston, Birmingham, and it wasn’t a very cool neighborhood when I was growing up. I used to sit on my porch and wonder, “How the heck am I going to get out of here?”
The ‘Paranoid’ singer continued, “I knew I was going to be a rock star for the rest of my life.
“My son [Jack, 38] frequently asks me, ‘What was it like when The Beatles happened?'” All I can tell him is, “Imagine going to bed in one environment and waking up in another that is so wonderful and thrilling that it makes you thrilled to be alive.”
He enthused, “The Beatles are my favorites, you know. Meeting Paul McCartney was the highlight of my life. I was amazed by how pleasant he was. Did I also meet Ringo Starr?What a lovely guy. The Beatles’ melodies were always the finest. “All I’ve attempted to do in my career is add a melody to a dark riff.”
