Ozzy Osbourne’s family is leaning on each other following his devastating death.

On Wednesday, July 30, the rocker’s widow, Sharon, 72, and their children — Aimee, 41, Kelly, 40, Jack, 39 — paid their respects during his funeral procession in Birmingham, UK. The Black Sabbath frontman’s son, Louis, from his first marriage to Thelma Riley, was also there.

The family, who wore all-black outfits, stopped at the Black Sabbath Bridge and bench on Broad Street, where fans had placed thousands of flowers, notes, and photos in honor of the man known as the Prince of Darkness.

In heartbreaking images, Sharon could be seen crying, holding a tissue in her hand, as Kelly and Jack held her arms — both physically and emotionally supporting her.

In a video shared by Sky News, the family was seen adding their own flowers to the growing tribute as fans chanted, “Ozzy! Ozzy! Ozzy!” Sharon’s children, who were in tears, comforted her, rubbing her back and embracing her. The family held up peace signs to the crowd before returning to their vehicle.

Kelly, who wore circular purple sunglasses seemingly in honor of her dad, was also accompanied by her husband, Sid Wilson, and their young son, as seen in the video.

As Star previously reported, the “Paranoid” singer passed away on Tuesday, July 22, at 76 years old after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease.

“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis shared in a statement via Instagram. “He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”

Last week, Star also reported that an air ambulance was dispatched to the five-time Grammy Award winner’s Buckinghamshire, England home on Tuesday morning before his death.

On Wednesday, July 23, Thames Valley Air Ambulance told the Daily Mail that they provided “advanced critical care at an incident near Chalfont St Giles yesterday.”

Per the outlet, the medical team was treating him for about two hours in his house before they departed.

Following the heavy metal icon’s passing, fellow musicians and friends have come out in droves with social media posts dedicated to him.

Kiss rocker Gene Simmons took to X writing, “Sad to report Ozzy has passed away. He was a giant. Admired and loved by millions of fans worldwide. Prayers and condolences go out to the Osborne family.”

Meanwhile, Elton John posted a tribute for the rocker on Instagram.

“So sad to hear the news of @ozzyosbourne passing away,” the EGOT winner wrote. “He was a dear friend and a huge trailblazer who secured his place in the pantheon of rock gods – a true legend. He was also one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. I will miss him dearly. To Sharon and the family, I send my condolences and love. Elton xx.”
