Jack Osbourne describes late father Ozzy’s final hours before ‘surprise’ death

Jack Osbourne revealed that his late dad Ozzy Osbourne's final day of life wasn't "dramatic."

"He was up, he was doing his thing, had some breakfast, and that was it," the youngest Osbourne child said onWednesday's episode of the "Hate to Break it to Ya" podcast.

Ozzydied on July 22, 2025, of a heart attack.He also suffered from coronary artery disease and Parkinson's disease. He was 76.

Jack, 40, admitted on the podcast that Ozzy's death "was a surprise, for sure."

"Obviously everyone knew he was sick," Jack shared. "But we weren't expecting it to be as quick as it was. I think he was done."

Jack also opened up about a sweet moment that he shared with his dad afterOzzy's final show with Black Sabbath, which took place less than three weeks before his death.

"I was putting him to bed, and he was brushing his teeth or whatever, and he was looking at himself in the mirror, and he goes, 'I think I'm gonna cut my hair off.' I'm, like, 'Why?' And he's, like, 'I've retired. I'm not a rock star anymore,'" the "Dancing with the Stars" alum recalled.

"So I think about that, and I'm, like, 'Yeah, he was done. He was OK with his journey,'" Jack added.

While reflecting on Ozzy's final concert, Jack said his dad "was fired up" for the monumental moment.

"He was like, 'Let's go.' He was there to do his job."

Jack previously revealedthat he discovered his father diedfrom a person who had worked for his family for 30 years. The individual knocked on the door of his Los Angeles home at 3:45 a.m.

"When I looked through my window and I saw it was him, I knew something bad had happened," Jacksaid in a YouTube videoin September 2025.

Meanwhile, Ozzy's wife, Sharon Osbourne,gave details about the rocker's passingon"Piers Morgan Uncensored"back in December.

"I ran downstairs, and there he was, and they were trying to resuscitate him, and I'm like, 'Don't — just leave him. Leave him. You can't. He's gone," she said.

"And they tried and tried, and then they took him by helicopter to the hospital and they tried, and it's like, 'He's gone. Just leave him."

Ozzy was laid to restin a private funeral service at his Buckinghamshire, England, home on July 31.

The day before,he was honored in a processionthat took place in his hometown of Birmingham, which his family attended.

Since then, a slew of artists have paid tribute to the rock icon at various concerts and awards shows.

Alex Ovechkin calls Capitals' trade of John Carlson 'the toughest day in my career'

The Washington Capitals made one of the most surprising moves of the NHL trade deadline bydealing defenseman John Carlson, the second-longest tenured player on the team, to the Anaheim Ducks.

Their longest-tenured player has some thoughts on that.

Speaking with reporters the day after the Capitals announced the move,which will net them a conditional first-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick, all-time NHL leading goal-scorer Alex Ovechkin went beyond calling it a sad day:

"Obviously a sad day. Probably the toughest day in my career, talking personal-wise. It sucks. It's sad."

Ovechkin and Carlson had been teammates for 17 years, going back to the defenseman's NHL debut in 2010. Along with other franchise staples like Nicklas Backstrom, the pair presided over an era of Capitals history defined by regular playoff appearances and their Stanley Cup title in 2017-18.

Carlson ranks behind only Ovechkin in games played for the Capitals and behind only Backstrom and Ovechkin on the franchise's all-time assists leaderboard. Ovechkin believes the franchise has never had a better blueliner:

"He's obviously the best defenseman in this franchise's whole history, leader. Obviously, an unbelievable man and a great friend for all of us. It's hard. It's a hard day."

The move answers one question for the franchise, making clear general manager Brian MacLellan is prioritizing the future over the 2025-26 season, but makes another question even more pressing.

Ovechkin is a free agent after this season, in which he holds an $8 million cap hit, andhe's been fairly mum on what he's planning to do.There are indications he'd like to return to his native Russia and play in the KHL before retirement,but he's going to have options regardless.

Asked about his future with the Capitals on Friday, he basically just shrugged:

"I don't know. I'm still here, so we'll see. We'll see what's going to happen, but yeah, it's a hard one."

The Capitals traded another of their most tenured players on Friday as well, sending longtime fourth-line center Nic Dowd to the Vegas Golden Knights. Ovechkin and Tom Wilson are now the only active Capitals players who made their debuts with the team before 2019.
