All through the night, he was getting up and then going back to bed. She said that at one point, Ozzy woke her up. “I said, 'I’m already bloody awake, you’ve woken me up,'" she said. "And he said, 'Kiss me.' And then he said, 'Hug me tight.'"
Ozzy died later that morning, after having a medical event after going downstairs to work out. He was 76 years old.
"If only I’d have told him I loved him more. If only I’d have held him tighter," said Sharon.

I was in a very dark place and was an a****** to the people I love most, my family," he wrote on a Facebook post in 2013, after much speculation about a divorce. "However, I am happy to say that I am now 44 days sober. I’m just trying to be a better person."
"I would like to apologize to Sharon, my family, my friends, and my band mates for my insane behavior during this period ... and my fans. God Bless, Ozzy.”
In 2016, the couple briefly separated after it was revealed that Ozzy had an affair. They reconciliated, with Sharon saying that she "couldn't think of my life without him." They renewed their vows the following year and remained together until Ozzy's death, with Sharon caring for him as he coped with Parkinson's Disease.
