Ozzy Osbourne is in the hospital for ‘complications from the flu’ says wife Sharon

February 11, 2019

The Prince of Darkness Ozzy Osbourne is unwell, says his wife, Sharon.

The co-host of “The Talk” shared news of his hospitalization on Twitter Wednesday with her more than two million followers.

“As some of you may have heard, Ozzy was admitted to hospital following some complications from the flu,” Sharon tweeted. “His doctors feel this is the best way to get him on a quicker road to recovery.

“Thanks to everyone for their concern and love,” she added.
