According to The New York Times, Ozzy Osbourne passed away from a heart attack. A death certificate filed in London by his daughter, Aimée Rose Osbourne, confirms that the iconic BLACK SABBATH frontman had been living with coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease. The document also notes that the heart attack took place outside of a hospital setting.
Two days after Ozzy’s passing, the Daily Mail reported that an air ambulance was dispatched to Welders House, the BLACK SABBATH legend’s mansion in Buckinghamshire, UK, on the morning of July 22. The helicopter touched down in a nearby field at 10:30 a.m., just 15 minutes after being called. By 12:30 p.m., the paramedics had returned to their base at RAF Benson, located 27 miles away near Wallingford in South Oxfordshire.
“We can confirm that our helicopter was dispatched to provide advanced critical care at an incident near Chalfont St Giles yesterday,” a spokesperson for the Thames Valley Air Ambulance wrote to the Daily Mail.
Ozzy’s 85-year-old sister Jean Powell also spoke to The Mirror about the singer’s death and said that it was unexpected. “He was frail but it still came as a shock,” she said. “He still had plans and things he wanted to do. We don’t know the details of his death; it’s still too early. It’s just so sad. I’m just thankful he died in England”.
