The Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, wants the last word. So he has decided to take things into his own hands. Fresh off his final concert, legendary rocker is now focused on writing what may be the most personal and raw project of his career. His swan song memoir, Last Rites. But this isn’t just another tell-all for him. It is deeply personal.
According to insiders, Ozzy Osbourne is writing the very words that may one day appear on his gravestone. Set to be released later this year, Last Rites will offer fans a no-holds-barred look into the chaos, madness that defined Osbourne’s decades-long career. At the heart of the book lies something even more intimate. His epitaph.
At 76 and living with Parkinson’s disease, Ozzy is painfully aware of his mortality. Those close to him say he views the memoir as his final goodbye to his family and fans. It’s his version of a mic drop, according to Radar Online. While I Am Ozzy, his 2009 bestseller, gave fans a taste of his wild ride, Last Rites promises something more poignant. This is Ozzy writing his own ending, and he’s not sugar-coating a single word.
Coming off his emotional farewell show, Back to the Beginning, in his hometown of Birmingham, Ozzy seems at peace with the end of his touring days. The concert drew tens of thousands, but behind the epic lineup and screaming crowd, Osbourne knew this was goodbye.
Tears flowed backstage, but Ozzy held his head high. He went out with a bang. And now, he’s channeling that same energy into the pages of his final memoir. “There’s a lot he wanted to get off his chest,” said a source close to the Osbourne family. “Ozzy’s been through hell the past few years with his health, and writing this book gave him a sense of purpose. It’s not just a look back, it’s his way of signing off on his own terms.”
Ozzy Osbourne Says Goodbye
In Last Rites, Ozzy reflects on everything from years of infidelity and drug abuse to hospitalizations and losing his grip on health. He writes about not recognizing himself anymore and feeling like a ghost in his own life. But he also writes about laughter, about his children, and most of all, about his deep, complicated love for Sharon.
And it’s that unbreakable bond with Sharon Osbourne that leads to one of the couple’s most haunting rumors. Their alleged suicide pact.
Sources close to the couple claim Ozzy and Sharon have made a grim but intimate agreement. If either one is suffering beyond repair, the other has promised not to let them face it alone. It’s the kind of eerie, ride-or-die vow only the Osbournes would make, underscoring the fierce love and co-dependency that’s defined their turbulent marriage.
Last Rites isn’t a farewell for the faint of heart. It’s raw, raucous, and painfully honest, just like Ozzy. While the world debates how to remember him, Ozzy is making it crystal clear: he’ll be remembered on his terms. With pen in hand, he’s writing his ending complete with cursing, chaos, and love. This isn’t just a book. It’s Ozzy Osbourne’s final encore.
