Happy 42nd Anniversary Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne!
On July 4, 1982, amidst the tropical beauty of Maui, Hawaii, heavy metal icon Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Arden tied the knot in a ceremony that would mark the beginning of one of rock and roll’s most enduring—and tumultuous—love stories. Today, July 4, 2024, marks their 42nd wedding anniversary, a milestone few would have predicted in those early wild days of Black Sabbath and rock stardom.
Sharon, the daughter of music manager Don Arden, took on the challenge of not only managing Ozzy’s chaotic solo career but also navigating a deeply personal relationship with him. From addiction battles and health scares to reality TV fame and career reinvention, their bond has been tested time and time again. Yet through it all, Ozzy and Sharon have remained fiercely loyal to one another, proving that love—however unconventional—can truly endure.
Their relationship was catapulted into pop culture stardom with the launch of The Osbournes reality TV show in the early 2000s, where fans got a front-row seat to the hilarious, chaotic, and often heartfelt family dynamics of the Osbourne household. Sharon became a household name in her own right, carving out a successful career as a television personality, author, and advocate, while Ozzy continued to tour and record music well into his later years.
Over four decades, they’ve celebrated triumphs, endured setbacks, and raised a family—all while remaining unapologetically themselves. As Ozzy once put it, “She’s my life. She’s my everything.”
So here’s to 42 years of love, resilience, and rock ‘n’ roll. Happy anniversary, Ozzy and Sharon—may your bond continue to shine as fiercely as ever.
