Ozzy Osbourne’s passing has left a massive void in the music world and a gaping hole in the life of his longtime wife, Sharon Osbourne. The heavy metal legend died on July 22 at 76, following a grueling battle with Parkinson’s disease and other health complications. But as his wife mourns the loss of her husband of 43 years, she’s now facing a serious financial storm.
Insiders reveal that Ozzy left behind a financial mess of epic proportions. The couple had reportedly been chased by creditors in the months leading up to his death, including the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Two major tax liens were filed against them. One for nearly $690,000 in 2023 and another for over $4.3 million in 2024.
Those debts reportedly played a major role in their sudden move back to England this past March, according to National Enquirer family sources. Now, with Ozzy Osbourne gone it has left Sharon Osbourne struggling to face the financial burdens.
“Now, Sharon, who’s already grieving that he went so suddenly, must pick up the pieces and figure out what they have and settle accounts,” says the source. “The feds and their other creditors will be coming after the estate, so she is bracing herself.”
It was Ozzy’ wish to clear up as much of the debt as possible in his final days. Despite being physically frail and suffering from spinal issues and the lasting effects of a brutal ATV accident, Ozzy pushed himself to perform one final concert in Birmingham on July 5.

He sang while seated, his body worn down from decades of illness, but his spirit unshaken. According to those close to him, he was determined to give one last performance and provide as much financial stability as he could for his family. No matter the cost to his health.
Sharon Osbourne is left to clean up what’s left behind. In addition to dealing with her grief, she must now comb through their finances, assess the estate. And figure out how to address the millions still owed. With the IRS and other creditors expected to come knocking, the stress is piling up.
What’s especially tragic is that Ozzy Osbourne always took great pride in the financial empire he built over the years. From rock superstardom to reality TV success, he crafted a larger-than-life legacy. But behind the scenes, it seems the income streams weren’t enough to keep up with their expenses. Despite royalties and years of hard-earned fame, debt now overshadows it all.
Ozzy Osbourne gave fans one final powerful performance before his passing. It’s Sharon Osbourne now left to carry the weight of preserving his legacy. With her own health reportedly on shaky ground. Those close to her fear the mounting stress and financial strain could take an even greater toll on her already fragile well-being.
