Ozzy Osbourne funeral: Sharon Osbourne seen for the first time

Ozzy’s coffin was driven by a hearse as the live brass band, Bostin’ Brass, played Black Sabbath’s song Iron Man while the street mourned the star.

The top of his car featured a purple cross made out of flowers. His name, Ozzy, inside the car was decorated with pink flowers with a white hand-tied bunch sat at the back of his coffin.

Mourners lining the streets shouted: “Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy, oi oi oi!” as his coffin passed by.

As the family made their way out of the cars behind to look at the beautiful tributes, a heartbroken Sharon was supported by her three children – Kelly, Aimee and Jack Osbourne – as she made her first public appearance since her husband’s death.

The family wore all-black for the occasion. Kelly and Jack – visibly moved – opted for sunglasses, while Sharon and Aimee didn’t.

She could be seen weeping. Sharon also acknowledged fans by giving the peace sign. The family were seen hugging each other before getting back into their blacked-out people carriers.
