Osbourne had suffered ill health in recent years and had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
Born John Michael Osbourne in Manchester, England, Osbourne rose to rock fame, becoming known for his stage persona as "The Prince of Darkness."
The rocker was notorious for his on-stage antics, including the moment he bit the head off of a live bat while on stage in Des Moines, Iowa in 1982. He later said he believed it was a rubber bat when he took the bite.
That same year, he was arrested for urinating on the Alamo while in Texas.
A pioneer of the heavy metal sound and look, with his heavy makeup and Goth image, Osbourne was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. He was first inducted in 2006 as part of Black Sabbath and then in 2024 in his own right.
Osbourne made no secret of the fact that he had consumed copious amounts of drugs and alcohol during his many decades on the road, and publicly marveled at his longevity despite his behavior. He often credited his wife Sharon for his survival.
Osbourne leaves behind his wife, Sharon, and their children, Aimee, Kelly and Jack, as well as his two older children, Jessica and Louis, from his first marriage, and several grandchildren.
