Jack Osbourne paid a touching tribute to his father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, during a rare public outing in Los Angeles. The 39-year-old wore a vintage Black Sabbath T-shirt featuring his late father on the cover of the band’s 1970 debut album, honoring the iconic musician a month after his passing on July 22 at age 76.

Ozzy, who battled Parkinson’s disease since 2019, was laid to rest in a private funeral in Birmingham, England, on July 30. Jack and the Osbourne family returned to LA shortly after, with Jack sharing a heartfelt Instagram post: “My heart is full of so much sadness and sorrow, but also so much love and gratitude.”

The Black Sabbath T-shirt held special significance, as its artwork was photographed at Mapledurham Watermill—near the site of Ozzy’s emotional farewell concert in Birmingham years prior. Fans noted the poignant connection, calling it a “perfect nod” to the rocker’s legacy.

Jack has remained mostly private since his father’s death but recently revealed Ozzy’s final months were documented for an upcoming BBC project. “It’s a raw, honest look at his journey,” Jack shared, though no release date has been announced.

The Osbourne family, including mother Sharon and siblings Kelly and Aimee, continue to mourn their loss. Sharon, who married Ozzy in 1982, previously called him “her everything” in a tearful tribute.

Jack’s low-key LA outing underscores his quiet resilience. As one fan tweeted: “Seeing Jack keep Ozzy’s spirit alive in small ways is so moving. Legendary dad, legendary son.”

Stay tuned for updates on the BBC documentary chronicling Ozzy’s final months.
