Who are Ozzy Osbourne’s six children including three with wife Sharon?

Ozzy Osbourne is survived by his six children following his death aged 76

The Black Sabbath front man passed away this morning with his family by his side and ‘surrounded by love.’

Over the course of his life, Osbourne had six children, including three from his first marriage, and three from his marriage to Sharon Osbourne, whom he remained married to until his death. 

Before tying the knot to Sharon, he married his first wife Thelma Riley in 1971 after meeting her in a Birmingham nightclub.

Together, they welcomed children Jessica and Louis, although details surrounding their birthdays are unclear. 

Osbourne also adopted Thelma’s five-year-old son Elliot from a previous relationship.

In the 2011 documentary film God Bless Ozzy Osbourne, produced by his son Jack, he revealed that he could not even remember when Louis and Jessica were born.

Louis also opened up about growing up with a drunk father.

‘When he was around and he wasn’t [drunk], he was a great father,’ he said in the documentary.

‘But that was kind of seldom, really. I just have a lot of memories of him being drunk, random s**t like driving cars across fields and crashing them in the middle of the night and stuff like that.

‘It’s not good for family life, really.’

His older sister, Jessica added: ‘I don’t remember being put to bed or having a bath by dad or anything like that.

‘I wouldn’t say he was there for us, no, never on sports day, school trip, parents’ evening. He wasn’t like that, no.’

After divorcing Thelma, Osbourne went on to marry Sharon in 1982.

Their first child, daughter Aimee was born September 2, 1983.

One year later, they welcomed daughter Kelly (born October 27, 1984), and on November 8, 1985, their son, Jack was born.

Aimee – who is also a singer and performs under her initials ARO – was born in London and raised in California until the age of 16 but moved out of the family home as filming for The Osbournes began in the early 2000s.

Reflecting on her decision to not appear on the show she said: ‘Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television?

‘I wanted to protect myself, my parents, my siblings, too. They were very young, very impressionable.’

She later defended her decision in 2008 and told The Independent: ‘I’m not some weirdo depressed daughter that’s afraid of the world and locks herself in her room all day.

‘I just didn’t choose to do the show. I want to be a singer, and I felt if I’d stayed with the Osbournes and done the whole thing I would have been typecast right away.

‘[Sharon] was hurt, and we definitely had a tough time with disagreements. I’m more reserved and my private life is very important.’

Aimee also has a strained relationship with younger sister Kelly, who confirmed in an interview four years ago that they are estranged.

Appearing on the Dax Shepard podcast – Armchair Expert in 2021, Kelly revealed: ‘We don’t talk. We’re just really different.

‘She doesn’t understand me and I don’t understand her.’

Back in 2015 Aimee admitted to The Independent that she and Kelly were not on close terms and said: ‘I wouldn’t say there is an ease between us, but there is an acceptance. Do we socialize? No.’

However, Aimee and brother Jack’s bond is much better, with the pair both running production company Osbourne Media together.
