Ozzy Osbourne official cause of death revealed after music legend died age 76

He died two weeks ago

The Black Sabbath frontman died two weeks ago on the 22 July as the world mourned his death.

Osbourne struggled with his health after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019.

Now, his official cause of death has been revealed, with his death certificate saying that the singer died from an 'acute myocardial infarction' and 'out of hospital cardiac arrest', otherwise known as a heart attack.

Last week, Osbourne's funeral was held as his coffin was paraded through his home city of Birmingham in front of thousands of onlookers.

The Prince of Darkness was laid to rest on the grounds of his own mansion in Buckinghamshire during a private funeral.

Last month, fans were treated to a show-stopping final performance as metal groups from Metallica to Slayer came together to pay tribute to the genre’s greatest band.

In his last ever live performance, Black Sabbath’s lead man Ozzy Osbourne even made an appearance on stage in a black throne.

As well as providing metalheads with one last opportunity to experience Black Sabbath’s music, it was also revealed that the gig made £140 million for charity.

This is according to Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello, who was the event’s musical director.

Morello took to Instagram, writing: “We set out to not just create the greatest day in the history of heavy metal… THANKYOU @ozzyosbourne for trusting me to be the Musical Director of the “Back To The Beginning” show.

“It was over a year of hard work but heavy metal was the music that made me love music and it was a labor of love.

“We raised a ton of money for a great cause and so many great musicians & bands & fans all over the world paid tribute to the ALL TIME greats.”

All profits from the show are will be equally split between Birmingham Children’s Hospital, Cure Parkinson’s, and Midlands-based Acorns Children’s Hospice.

Despite going on to tour stadiums right across the world, all four founding members of Black Sabbath are from the Aston area of Birmingham.
