Ozzy Osbourne had mixed emotions about returning to his home country prior to his death..
On Thursday, October 2, the Daily Mail obtained a new clip from the upcoming BBC documentary Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home, featuring the late Black Sabbath frontman discussing his move from America back to the U.K.
“I wouldn’t say I’m excited. I’m kind of scared to [go] back,” the “Paranoid” singer told daughter Kelly, who responded, “I know what you mean.”
“I’m so used to being over here now, but I’ve got to go back,” he added. “I’ve got a house there and your mum said it’s beautiful,”
The Rock’ n’ Roll Hall of Famer admitted that he and his wife, Sharon, are accustomed to being very focused on their kids — Aimee, 42, Kelly, 40, and Jack, 39 — so this chapter would be a change for them.
‘We’re so used to running after the kids, we don’t know what it’s like to be with ourselves, to be with each other,” Ozzy admitted. “You know what, I can’t wait till I’m there.”

As for Sharon, 72, she told cameras, “It’s Ozzy’s decision whether he wants to spend the rest of his life there or here. Home is where both of us are. As long as he’s with me, I’m alright.”
The couple did make the move back to England. The heavy metal singer tragically passed away in their Buckinghamshire home on July 22 at age 76 following a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s disease.
Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home was initially set to air in August, but the BBC pushed the date back to Thursday, October 2 at 9 p.m. on BBC One in the U.K.
According to a press release, the one-hour film follows “the last chapter of Ozzy’s life, told through unique and intimate access to the whole Osbourne family, including Sharon, Jack and Kelly.”
“Filmed over three years, it captures the extraordinary roller-coaster of their lives as Sharon and Ozzy attempt to complete their long-held dream of moving back to the UK, Ozzy heroically battles to get fit enough to perform, and the family deal with the dramatic consequences of his ill-health,” the release stated.
