Ozzy Osbourne’s battle with addiction in the ’70s took a toll on his family, especially his relationship with his son, Jack. In a resurfaced interview, Ozzy admitted that during those years, he failed to be the father his children needed. The addiction, which led to multiple rehab stints, left him emotionally absent, and Jack’s painful words—”What about a father?”—left Ozzy crushed with guilt, realizing he had prioritized his demons over his family.

Despite the years of struggle, Ozzy eventually found sobriety, transforming his home life. Sharon, once doubtful, found peace with a sober Ozzy, describing their home as calm and pleasant. The father-son bond, once nearly broken, began to heal. Jack, now an adult, has expressed admiration for his dad, acknowledging his contribution to music far outweighs his past mistakes.

As the years passed, Ozzy found strength in his family, especially in his grandchildren. Jack’s daughters, Pearl, Andy, Minnie, and Maple, brought a new sense of purpose to his life. Despite his traditional views, Ozzy played an active role in his grandchildren’s lives, setting boundaries but offering love in his unique way. Jack’s nostalgia for their early days, especially in the infamous Beverly Hills mansion, shows just how far their relationship had come
