Black Sabbath icon Ozzy Osbourne had a very sweet moment with Yungblud while backstage at his epic Villa Park send-off show over the weekend when he presented a gift
Ozzy Osbourne was gifted a touching retirement gift while at his last ever show this weekend. The iconic rocker, 76, decided to mark the end of his reign as the Prince of Darkness with one of the biggest farewell shows ever.
Many of the world’s greatest rock bands headed to Villa Park, Birmingham in an effort to make Ozzy’s last performance with Black Sabbath the most memorable ever. One of those was Yungblud, who performed on stage before Ozzy made his appearance.
He took time backstage to meet Ozzy as they shared a tender moment together. Yungblud, real name Dominic Harrison, presented the rock legend with a very special gift in between sound checks.
He told Ozzy: “I made you something,” as he presented Ozzy with a large wooden box. “Obviously you gave me your cross and I wanted to return the favour, so I made you something.”
Ozzy opened the box and exclaimed: “Oh my god, that is f***ing unbelievable.” Yungblud held up his own necklace and revealed he has never taken it off since Ozzy gave him it, and decided to present Ozzy with another necklace “to return the favour”.
“That’s really good, thank you,” Ozzy told Yungblud as he reached over for a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Yungblud told him: “I love you,” as Ozzy responded: “Love you.”
“Thanks Dom, that’s so f***ing cool. That’s very special. That’s great, thank you so much.” Yungblud held out his own necklace as Ozzy held them both together in a sweet moment between them.
Ozzy told him: “If there is anything we can ever do for you…,” as Yungblud responded: “You know what, the f***ing music was enough. Thank you so much honestly, you gave me an outlet. Everyone thought I was too f***ing mad and I was like ‘nah man I’m like Ozzy’.”
Speaking of the touching moment, Yungblud added: “Back in 2022 on the video shoot for The Funeral, Ozzy gave me his gold cross and said ‘I hope this brings you luck’.
“I thought, on this monumental moment for him and Sabbath, it was time for me to return the favour and let him know what he and the band means to me”
It wasn’t the only surprise for Ozzy backstage on Saturday, as his daughter Kelly Osbourne got engaged to partner Sid Wilson. After the incredible show, the Osbourne family were treated to a beautiful surprise as Kelly’s longtime partner Sid proposed in front of her parents Ozzy and Sharon.
Taking to Instagram to share the joyful news, Kelly, 40, posted the sweet video of Sid’s proposal as he asked to spend the rest of his life with the former reality TV star. Alongside the video, Kelly wrote: “Oh, and this happened yesterday.”
In the heartwarming clip, Sharon was heard saying: “We’ve got to be quiet, hold on,” as she shushed the crew backstage at show. Kelly’s now fiancé told her: “Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world.”
However, Sid’s romantic proposal was swiftly interrupted by a playful Ozzy who shouted: “F*** off! You’re not marrying my daughter.” Clearly familiar with Ozzy’s banter, Sid laughs and continues asking Kelly the all-important question.
