The family of the late Ozzy Osbourne appears to be keeping things low at the moment, as they recently stopped the airing of his documentary.

The legendary rocker, who had long anticipated his death, had prepared a movie in advance to showcase the last three years of his life.

As the cause of his death continues to attract public attention, the rocker's wife, Sharon Osbourne, is still struggling to properly handle her husband's passing.

Why Ozzy Osbourne's Family Is Putting The Documentary On Hold

The 76-year-old singer died on July 22. His family had earlier announced the passing of the legend via a statement that read, "He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family's privacy at this time." 

Almost a month later, the documentary on Ozzy, which was scheduled to air on the BBC, has now been pulled from the lineup. As reported by Variety, his family emphasized their need for privacy as the reason behind the pause.

"Our sympathies are with the Osbourne family at this difficult time. We are respecting the family's wishes to wait a bit longer before airing this very special film," a spokesperson told the publication.

It appears they want complete privacy for now, and the spokesperson has assured fans that a new airing date will be announced soon.  

A Sneak Peek into What the Documentary Would Look Like Upon Release

The documentary titled "Coming Home," which emerged as a project following the deteriorating health of the music legend, was filmed to capture the last three years of his life. It was initially set to air as a series, "Home to Roost."

As reported by the BBC, the documentary is set to highlight every aspect of Ozzy's final years, shedding light on the strength with which he faced his declining health, his determination to remain a stage star, and the impact of his struggles on his family. 

The producers have described the film as a "moving and inspirational account" of the music star's life as it portrays his journey with his wife Sharon and their two children, Jack and Kelly, as they pursue their long-time dream of traveling back to the UK. 

 "There will be love, laughter, and tears," a source said of the project.

The Cause of Ozzy Osbourne's Death Revealed

The death certificate of the late rocker, released two weeks after his passing, revealed he suffered from many health issues.

As reported by The Blast, four "joint causes" of death were listed, including acute myocardial infarction, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, coronary artery disease, and Parkinson's disease with autonomic dysfunction.

Ozzy, who had long anticipated his death and directed his profits to preferred channels, had been battling these health conditions as far back as 2003.

However, his condition deteriorated due to complications from the back and neck surgery in 2019 after falling on stage mid-performance. "Five years of absolute hell for me and my family," he told Piers Morgan about his failing health in 2023.

It was a hell of a ride for him, but he continued to manage his health even while making waves in his career.

As Ozzy continued to battle health challenges, the late father of six had his partner, Sharon, who also doubled as his manager, by his side throughout the journey.

It was even reported that Sharon once mentioned they had agreed on a suicide pact if things ever became unbearable, as they didn't want to put their children through the pain of caring for a severely ill parent.

As his manager, she played a vital role in keeping his career alive, often stepping in to save him at crucial moments.

At his last performance, he was reportedly seen sitting while performing, a decision later revealed to have been Sharon's idea, as she didn't want the show to flop due to the risk of Ozzy collapsing on stage.

How Ozzy Osbourne's Wife is Handling His Death

The music manager is still overwhelmed with grief over the passing of her husband, sparking concern among her inner circle.

"She's numb with disbelief at the suddenness of his death," a source said, as reported by The Blast.

As different sources continue to express concern for the late icon's wife, who has also battled cancer in the past, Sharon seems to be done with love, describing the late rockstar as "her twin flame."

An insider revealed that she is now more focused on her career and determined to keep Ozzy's legacy alive.
