Ozzy Osbourne has tested positive for COVID-19, according to his wife and manager Sharon.
"Ozzy was only diagnosed... It was, like, middle of the night [U.K.] time. I spoke to him and he's okay," explained Sharon in a clip from her newly-launched show, “The Talk UK”, in a clip shared by TMZ. "I am very worried about Ozzy right now. We've gone two years without him catching COVID and it's just Ozzy's luck he would get it now."
The news has caused Sharon to take a break from her program after just three days on air to return to Los Angeles to be with her 73-year-old husband.
When asked what the first thing she will do when the two reconnect in person, Sharon says "[I will] hold him and kiss him with about three masks on, I think.”
The iconic rocker – who has struggled with health issues in the past few years and revealed in 2020 that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, the long-term degenerative disorder of the central nervous system – recently confirmed that had completed the follow-up to 2020’s “Ordinary Man.”
“I’m so happy to let everyone know that I finished my new album this week and delivered it to my label Epic Records,” said Ozzy. “I’ll be sharing all the information about the album and its’ upcoming release with you in the next several weeks.”
