The Osbourne family have been seen out in public for the first time since rock legend Ozzy Osbourne’s death.
Ozzy died at the age of 76 on July 22, just a couple of weeks after he performed his final concert alongside his Black Sabbath bandmates, which marked their first reunion in two decades.
The singer took to the stage for a final time on July 5 at Villa Park in Birmingham, UK, in a bid to raise money for charity. Reportedly, the gig went on to raise almost $200 million.
Ozzy was born and raised in Birmingham and, with this in mind, his grieving family took to the city’s streets today (July 30) to mourn with music fans.

Sharon Osbourne, who was married to the Black Sabbath frontman for over 40 years, was on hand to grieve with the rest of Birmingham alongside her children Aimee, Kelly, and Jack.
Pictures of the heartbroken widow showed her flashing a peace sign, a gesture her late husband often made.
Fans also noticed that Sharon appeared to be wearing her late husband’s wedding ring on a gold chain around her neck.
“Seeing Sharon wear Ozzy’s ring on a necklace… completely wrecked me,” one person wrote online of the tear-jerking photographs.
And it seems as if his daughter Kelly was also wearing an item of Ozzy’s; the rocker’s iconic purple-tinted glasses.

“Kelly Osbourne is coming home to Ozzy Osbourne’s tinted glasses,” E! News pointed out in a tweet.
“She honors his legacy with a subtle nod to her father during his funeral,” the news outlet added.
“I think Kelly wears Ozzy’s sunglasses,” noted someone else. A third wrote on social media: “Did anyone else notice, that Kelly was wearing Ozzy’s blue glasses. I kinda lost it a lil.”
Somebody else said that Kelly wearing her father’s glasses was a ‘wonderful tribute’ to him.
It seems as if all of Ozzy’s family members wore an item of his in tribute to him.
Noting this, someone penned: “Sharon is wearing his ring on a chain, Jack has his pin on his tie, Kelly is wearing his glasses and Amiee is wearing his necklace. Pure love, rest well Ozzy.”
