Sharon Osbourne has opened up about the sad vow she made to husband Ozzy right before his death.
The Black Sabbath star passed away aged 76 earlier this summer in July, with his cause of death announced as cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease.
Thousands lined the city centre streets of Birmingham around a week later to say goodbye to the heavy metal rock legend, along with Sharon and her kids, Aimee Osbourne, Kelly Osbourne and Jack Osbourne, as well as Ozzy's son Louis Osbourne from his previous marriage to Thelma Riley.

Alongside those four children, Ozzy also left behind his other child with Thelma, Jessica Osbourne, plus their adopted son Elliot Kingsley.
Months after his passing and Sharon has now shared with fans how she's faring as she continues to grieve her late husband of over 40 years.
During an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, the X Factor veteran explained that she can't see herself ever falling in love again.
"Everything in my life now is like ish ... it’s OK, alright. I’m OK. That’s it for now. For so, so many years, we were intertwined," she said on the December 10th episode.
The mum of three continued: "It’s very weird to me. You know, when you love someone that much and you’re grieving for them, it’s what I have to live with, and I’ll get used to it. I will. I have to, you know, things move on."
Sharon then shared that Ozzy had previously asked her about whether she would ever remarry after he died and she told him 'never'.
"One night when he was hugging me tight, you know, he said, 'When I go, do you think you’ll ever get married?' I’m like, 'f*ck off, p*ss off. Oh, my God no, never, ever, ever, no'."
The TV personality then shared some sweet words about her three kids, telling Piers: "I wouldn’t have [gotten] through [without them]. I would have just gone with Ozzy, definitely. I’ve done everything I wanted to do.
"You know they’ve been unbelievable, just magnificent with me, all three of them. Years ago, when I had one of my mental breakdowns, I went into a little facility to help with my head. And there were two girls over there. They didn’t know each other, but they were in there, each mother had committed suicide."
She added: "And I saw the state that these two young women were in and what it had done to their lives, and I thought, I will never, ever, ever do that to my kids." She added if her loss: "It’s inevitable that it happens to all of us.
"I miss his hand... holding his hand."
