Summary
- Ozzy Osbourne's memoir reveals his 2016 separation from wife Sharon
- He admits to "seeing a load of women on the side" during their marriage
- Sharon chastised Ozzy for his carelessness about the affair revelations

In July 2025, the late Ozzy Osbourne, the iconic Black Sabbath frontman who passed away earlier that year at age 76, posthumously revealed intimate details about his marital struggles in his memoir "Last Rites." Osbourne candidly reflected on his 2016 separation from his wife of over 30 years, Sharon Osbourne, after he was caught "seeing a load of women on the side."
Ozzy admitted that at some point, he became "trapped" in his extramarital affairs, fearing the women would go to the press. This is precisely what happened, leading to the bombshell revelation and his separation from Sharon. Ozzy wrote that Sharon had "every right to dump" him after learning of his infidelity, recalling her chastising him for his carelessness about the matter.
"Sharon was like, 'What the f--k did you expect, Ozzy?'" he recalled in the book. "'If you're seeing enough women, one of 'em's gonna want more. And that's the one who's gonna bring the whole thing crashing down on everyone's heads.'"
