Taking to Instagram, the 73-year-old shared photos of herself with Elvis and her late husband, describing her pet as her “darling boy” who stayed with her “until the end.”

“I can’t believe I am posting this,” Sharon wrote.

“My darling Elvis passed away this week. He gave me 14 precious years.

Sharon’s daughter Kelly Osbourne, 40, also paid tribute to Elvis, saying she believes her father “needed him” in heaven.

“It is with a heavy heart that I let you all know that we lost Elvis this week,” she wrote. “

"Our guardian angel has left us. Elvis did not leave my side since my dad passed.

"He helped get me through the darkest moment of my life.”

Kelly added: “I keep trying to find a positive in all of this and the only thing I can come up with is that maybe my dad needed him.

"Life can be so cruel but also give you many treasures. We were so lucky to have Elvis for 14 years.

"Thank you for all the love, Elvis, you were one of a kind. I love you. Sleep well, sweet prince, until we meet again.”

Fans offer support after double loss

Fans rushed to send condolences to Sharon and Kelly, reassuring them that Elvis had now been reunited with Ozzy.

"Oh no, Sharon, I know he was always right by your side. Sending you love," one person wrote.

Another added: "So very sorry for your loss. Elvis is with Ozzy now."

A Family Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne

Just last week, Sharon and her children Jack and Kelly visited a giant mural made of pumpkins that honored the Black Sabbath frontman, per BBC News.

The artwork (built from more than 10,000 pumpkins) was unveiled at Sunnyfields Farm in Totton, Hampshire, following Ozzy’s death on July 22 from heart failure at age 76.

The family viewed the 35-foot-tall mural from a cherry picker and spent the evening reflecting on Ozzy’s legacy.

Farm owner Tom Nelson said the Osbournes were “emotional but grateful” for the tribute.

Ozzy Osbourne’s Final Years

Ozzy’s passing followed years of declining health, including complications from a 2019 fall and a long battle with Parkinson’s disease.

After his death, Sharon thanked fans for their “overwhelming love and support,” admitting she was “still finding her footing” after losing her husband of 43 years.


Their son Jack said on Good Morning America: “She’s okay, but she’s not okay. I know she feels the love.”

BBC documentary to chronicle Ozzy’s final chapter

A new BBC One documentary, Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home, will explore the rock legend’s final years and his return to the UK after more than three decades in the United States.

The program will feature behind-the-scenes footage from Ozzy’s farewell concert at Birmingham’s Villa Park and intimate reflections from Sharon, Jack, and Kelly as they navigate life after his passing.
