Sharon Osbourne made her first public appearance on Wednesday following the passing of her husband, the iconic Ozzy Osbourne.

The 73-year-old television personality stepped back into the limelight with a stunning display, accompanied by her daughter Kelly, 41, at a glamorous event in London organized by Rebecca Vallance.

Ozzy, the legendary frontman of Black Sabbath, passed away at his Buckinghamshire residence from heart failure on July 22. The rock star’s death came merely two weeks after he bid farewell to fans with a final performance alongside his bandmates at Birmingham’s Villa Park.

While Sharon’s son, Jack, is currently roughing it in the ‘I’m A Celebrity’ jungle, she and Kelly were picture-perfect at a chic cocktail party held at Aki London.

The mother-daughter duo, adorned in elegant ball gowns, held hands as they posed for photographers, marking a poignant return to the public eye for Sharon.

The widow looked stunning in a glitzy red dress, while Kelly slipped into a pale pink number.

Sharon and Kelly were joined by star-studded guests including Holly Valance, Amber Le Bon and Zara Tindall.

Last month, Sharon cut a heartbreaking figure as she was pictured for the first time since Ozzy’s funeral.   

Ozzy had been battling a number of health issues in the years leading up to his death, including a fall in 2019 at the family’s home, which saw his condition further deteriorate.

Following the news of his passing, Sharon opened up on social media to thank fans for the ‘overwhelming love and support’ shown towards her by his fans.

Sharon admitted she had been ‘carried through’ by those around her, adding she was ‘still finding her footing’ after losing the husband she often said she lived for.

And her son Jack said on Good Morning America on Tuesday: ‘She’s okay, but she’s not okay. I know she feels the love.’

New BBC One documentary Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home charted the self-styled Prince Of Darkness’s return to the United Kingdom after more than three decades in the United States with his wife and children.

It featured Jack and sibling Kelly speaking about their mum Sharon’s pain over Ozzy’s final years, nursing him though painful operations and trying to help him.

It will also showed behind-the-scenes footage from his final farewell concert at Villa Park, following his long battle with Parkinson’s.

It follows new Paramount+ documentary Ozzy: No Escape From Now, which features Jack and Kelly’s older sister Aimee speaking about her father’s final few years.

Reflecting on the concert, Jack said: ‘Before he went on stage, I ran back into the dressing room, and I just gave him a big hug.

‘I just kissed him. I just said, I was like, “Crush it. You’re going to do so good.” And I was crying. I was in the crowd with… there was this area in the crowd and I was with my brother and we both were just crying.

‘It wasn’t because of feeling sorry for him. It wasn’t because we were sad for him.

‘I think it was because we knew it was the last time. In hindsight, it kind of was a living wake if you think about it. He got to say goodbye to everyone.’

It comes after Kelly shared her heartache over watching mum Sharon care for sick Ozzy through to his final moments in the new documentary, filmed during the final three years of his life.

In one scene, Kelly said: ‘I think what’s happening to my mum is the most heartbreaking part of this whole thing.

‘And I think that watching the man that she loves most in this world wither is really, really hard.’
