English singer and songwriter Ozzy Osbourne has revealed his intention to move back to his native United Kingdom amid rising gun violence cases in the U.S.
In an interview published on Sunday, August 28, 2022, with The Observer, the 73-year-old Black Sabbath star got candid about his reasons for leaving the States. He said:
“Everything’s f***ing ridiculous there. I’m fed up with people getting killed every day. God knows how many people have been shot in school shootings. And there was that mass shooting in Vegas at that concert. It’s f***ing crazy."
Osbourne, who has been battling a number of health issues, also stated that he does not want to die in America and be "buried in f***ng Forest Lawn." He revealed that he plans to leave his Beverly Hills home and move to Buckinghamshire, England. He avered:
"I’m English. I want to be back. But, saying that, if my wife said we’ve got to go and live in Timbuktu, I’ll go. But, no. It’s just time for me to come home.”
His wife, Sharon Osbourne, also explained why she was returning to England. Sharon was fired from the talk show The Talk in 2021.
Sharon rued:
"It’s just time. America has changed so drastically. It isn’t the United States of America at all. Nothing’s united about it. It’s a very weird place to live right now.”
The Osbournes' Los Angeles home has been listed for $18 million, according to multiple reports. According to the Daily Mirror, the Paranoid singer announced in March that he would relocate to Buckinghamshire due to California's high taxes.
