Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne are redefining normal in an upcoming documentary.
In the trailer for the documentary Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home, the legendary rock star and his wife of 43 years share their conflicting views on whether their family is “normal.”
The upcoming film takes place over the last three years of Osbourne’s life as the family moves back to the UK. It was originally meant to be a series called Home to Roost as an homage to the family’s early-aughts reality show. However, as Ozzy’s health deteriorated, the project shifted into a film instead.
“We’re quite normal,” says Sharon, 72. “We’re quite boring, really, when it comes down to it.”

Ozzy, who died in July at 76, however, thinks differently. “I wouldn’t say we’re f—ing normal,” the rocker quips. “I’d made some marijuana cake. I went to the pub and the vicar come round and ate some of the cake.”
Two of their children, Jack Osbourne and Kelly Osbourne, also appear in the documentary.
“You can’t be him without people staring,” Kelly, 40, says at one point about her famous father. “He’s Ozzy Osbourne.”
Jack, 39, meanwhile, reflected on their life following their MTV reality series, The Osbournes. “Post Osbournes, we all kind of just, like, scattered,” he says. “Twenty years later, it’s like, we’re back together again.”
BBC
A synopsis for the hour-long documentary calls it a “moving portrait of one of the world’s most entertaining families at a pivotal moment in their history.”
“The strength of Ozzy and Sharon’s love for one another and their kids’ devotion to them is palpable. So too is the family’s acceptance of Ozzy becoming increasingly unwell. As Kelly poignantly puts it, the iron man isn’t made of iron.”
BBC
Following Ozzy’s death in July, a source told PEOPLE that his health was an obstacle as the couple moved back to England. “Sharon had wanted to move back to England for years, especially as she got older. England was always home for them, but it became more than that,” the source said.
“It was about creating peace and the best life possible together in their final chapter. The path back to England wasn’t easy. His health has been fragile for years.”
“It was a gift, because they got a year and half together, at home,” added the source of their estate in Buckinghamshire, where they moved in 2023.
The documentary was meant to premiere in August, but was postponed hours before its set air time, citing the Osbourne “family’s wishes.”
“Our sympathies are with the Osbourne family at this difficult time. We are respecting the family’s wishes to wait a bit longer before airing this very special film,” the BBC said in a statement. “The new [transmission] date will be confirmed shortly.”
