Savannah Chrisley's Surprise Proposal in the Cayman Islands Stuns Fans New

Savannah Chrisley's Surprise Proposal in the Cayman Islands Stuns Fans

Savannah Chrisley is celebrating another major milestone after announcing her pregnancy. During the Tuesday, October 27, episode of her "Unlocked" podcast, Chrisley, 29, revealed her boyfriend, Jason, proposed during a getaway to their "happy place" in the Cayman Islands. "Jason and I started dating in July, so ... five months [later]," she said. "Timing means nothing, guys, OK? But back in December, Jason and I were in the Cayman Islands, and little did I know, he had a ring in his backpack." Chrisley joked she "didn't have to snoop" to find it. "Jason was getting a charger out of his backpack, I think I called him in the other room," she recalled. "He came in there and then he left a box on the counter. I was like, 'Oh, my God, is that what I think it is?' But I didn't know, to be, you know, 100 percent." According to the Chrisley Knows Best alum, the couple took a trip to another island, which was "extremely secluded." "It was the coolest thing ever," she said. "But ... there was a point in time to where I saw that he was, like, distracted. And I'm like, 'What's going on?'" Jason was apparently texting a friend of Chrisley's and telling her he thought they were in the perfect place to propose. The friend picked up the ring and flew by helicopter to the island, later telling the couple their flight that afternoon had been delayed an hour. As the pair got ready to make their way to the airport, Jason led Chrisley to a setup with flowers and champagne. "I just think he's being sweet, like, I had no idea ... I had been in the ocean all day. I was in a swimsuit," she recalled. "I had hair, makeup not done, none of that. So I had no idea." The moment took a "hilarious" turn when Jason couldn't find the ring, which was hidden in a tree, but he eventually proposed. "When he gave me the ring, he was like, 'Before I open this, I just want you to know that this is just an expression of love to you. This can be whatever you want it to be. This can be an engagement ring, a promise ring, a cocktail ring for all I care. I just want you to know how much I love you,'" Chrisley said. "And there was no pressure ever put on me to, like, 'You have to accept this as this.'" Chrisley acknowledged that the proposal came "really quick" into their relationship, but she didn't care. "I feel like you could find out more about a person in three months than you did in a whole year of being with them," she asserted. The former reality star was "in such shock" during the special moment that she began to cry. She raved over the "insane" ring, which she said was "everything I ever wanted." Chrisley noted, "It was just the most magical, amazing experience [in] the entire world. It was all filmed, and so we have videos of it, photos of it, and that's just us. And I absolutely love him for who he is and creating those special moments for us." Chrisley also announced her pregnancy via Instagram on Tuesday, adding on her podcast that the unexpected timing made the couple adjust their wedding plans. "Our wedding was scheduled for January 9 of 2027," she explained. "And let me tell you, it was going to be a phenomenal time. It still is going to be a phenomenal time. It has just been pushed a few months to May of 2027. And that is because we got the surprise of a lifetime." Though she had been going through a fertility journey, Chrisley said her pregnancy was a "major plot twist." "We both were so shocked, so thrilled," she gushed. "God's hand was written all over this. ... We are unbelievably excited and cannot wait for this baby to get here."

Tennessee on Edge as Convicted Killer Escapes Prison New

Tennessee on Edge as Convicted Killer Escapes Prison

A man convicted of murder is at large after he escaped a Tennessee prison where he’s been serving a life sentence, authorities said. Jacob Allen Morley escaped the Northwest Correctional Complex in Lake County the evening of Sunday, October 25, according to the Tennessee Department of Correction. He’s wanted by the department and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Morley, 28, “should be considered dangerous,” the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said in a Monday, October 26, Facebook post. He’s been added to the state’s most wanted list. Morley is described as 6 feet tall, weighing around 240 to 270 pounds, with green eyes and brown hair. Officials are calling on the public’s help in locating him. “Residents in the area are asked to check home security and doorbell cameras, trail and hunting cameras, and other surveillance systems for possible sightings or activity,” the Tennessee Department of Correction said in an update shared to Facebook on Monday. “Anyone who sees Morley or has information about his whereabouts should not approach him,” the department warned. Morley was sentenced to life in prison after he was convicted of first-degree murder, aggravated burglary, tampering with evidence, evading arrest and vandalism in connection with the death of Cody Birchfield, according to authorities. Birchfield was considered missing until his body was found buried below Morley’s home in March 2022, WJHL-TV reported. The Carter County Sheriff's Office started investigating Birchfield’s disappearance in February 2022 following the last sighting of him in Elizabethton, according to The Tennessean. Morley was found guilty of murder in Birchfield’s death in February 2025, before he was sentenced in the case in June 2025, per the TV station. Morley allegedly escaped the Northwest Correctional Complex, which has the capacity to house up to 1,776 male inmates, by slipping through a fence, according to the Associated Press. As of Monday, investigators “have searched and cleared buildings and structures in the surrounding area, and the Tennessee Highway Patrol has deployed aviation assets and state troopers to assist with the search,” the Tennessee Department of Correction said. Authorities are offering $2,500 for information leading to Morley’s arrest and urge anyone who sees Morley to call 911 or the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation at 1-800-TBI-FIND.

McRib Returns Early: Is Your City Serving the Iconic Sandwich? New

McRib Returns Early: Is Your City Serving the Iconic Sandwich?

See more of our coverage in your search results. Every fall, fast-food devotees brace for the return of a certain seasonal classic — and no, it isn’t a pumpkin spice latte.McDonald’s is officially bringing back the iconic McRib sandwich this week on a limited, regional basis starting Tuesday, Oct. 27. The tangy pork sandwich, which inspires both passionate fan loyalty and intense debate over its taste among diners, is making an earlier-than-usual comeback.  The McRib was introduced in 1981 because there wasn’t enough chicken to supply the Chicken McNuggets, invented in 1979. Getty ImagesThe McRib historically makes its annual appearance in late November, but selected markets are getting a head start this year. McDonald’s pulled the menu item back in the early 2000s, turning it into a limited-time guest star rather than a permanent menu item. McDonald’s confirmed that the sandwich will only be available in designated regions, including major metro areas such as Los Angeles and Chicago. The beloved burger chain has not specified how long the limited run will last.According to fan-submitted tracking data on McRibLocator.com, customers have already reported sightings and purchases across more than a dozen cities, including: Bakersfield, California Cedar Rapids, Iowa Corpus Christi, Texas Grand Rapids, Michigan Hollywood, Florida Independence, Missouri Knoxville, Tennessee Marietta, Georgia Old Forge, Pennsylvania Portland, Oregon Richmond, Indiana San Antonio, Texas San Diego, California Van Nuys, California Fast-food fans eager to check if their local franchise is serving the legendary sandwich can check the McDonald’s app or monitor the crowdsourced database at McRibLocator.com for real-time updates.The McRib is a pork sandwich with a pork patty shaped to resemble a boneless rack of ribs. The patty is in between a bun with barbecue sauce, pickles and onions. The sandwich first made its debut in 1981 in Kansas City after there was a shortage of chicken supply. The price of the sandwich depends on the restaurant location. McRibLocator.com reports prices ranges per city, with the cheapest being $4.47 in Victoria, Texas to $7.99 in Palmdale, California. The average price in the U.S. is $6.05.  In 2020, McDonald’s brought back the McRib for the first time since 2012, and it has returned annually ever since.Customers have a love-hate relationship with the McDonald’s McRib. Some anticipate its return all year, while others say it’s “garbage.”One Reddit user rated it a 3 out of 10 and said they would only ever eat it out of “pure necessity.”“One person in my party couldn’t finish, and one person got pizza pizza afterwards to cleanse their [palate],” they added. “If you’re going to pizza pizza afterwards to get rid of the taste of the McRib, that should tell you something.”But others say they enjoy the BBQ sandwich when it returns. “Don’t care what all the elitists here say,” responded another Reddit user. “I’ve had this ever since I was in high school and I still really like it whenever it comes back. That sauce is damn good and part of the experience is getting it all over your fingers and face.”

Colleen Conrad Speaks Out Against Kate Gosselin's Claims About Son Collin New

Colleen Conrad Speaks Out Against Kate Gosselin's Claims About Son Collin

Jon Gosselin’s ex Colleen Conrad continues to show her support for Collin Gosselin after the release of his shocking memoir. “I’ve recently become aware of several deeply concerning statements Kate has made about Collin, and I believe it is important to address them thoughtfully and factually,” Conrad wrote via Instagram on Monday, October 26. “I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner with more than 35 years of experience in healthcare. My professional background has given me extensive experience with psychiatric diagnoses, symptoms and medications, and this is an area I take very seriously.” Conrad continued, “When Collin came to live with us, I did not observe the symptoms or behaviors I would have expected based on some of the diagnoses he had received, nor did I observe the behaviors that have since been publicly described. In consultation with his treating physician, we gradually discontinued his medications under medical supervision.” Jon’s ex reminded her followers that mental health conditions are “real, complex and deserving of compassion and understanding.” “However, they should never be used to dismiss another person’s lived experience or deflect legitimate questions about the past,” she continued. “I believe these issues deserve to be addressed with honesty, responsibility and respect for the people involved.” In Collin’s new book, Shadow of Eight: Surviving the Reality of My Childhood, the former Jon & Kate Plus 8 star makes several allegations against his mom, Kate Gosselin, as he recalls his traumatic childhood growing up on reality TV. Collin, 22, detailed his experience as an institutionalized pre-teen after his parents’ 2009 divorce. The Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test contestant claims Kate, 51, sent him to a behavioral health institution in 2016 for what she described as alleged “unpredictable and violent behavior.” Kate’s eldest son spent two years at the institution and a different residential facility before he moved in with Jon, 49. In several TikTok comments, Kate responded to fans with questions or concerns about Collin’s claims. In one response, Kate denied Collin’s allegation that she only visited him once during his time at the mental health institution. “I visited EVERY single time the facility felt he was stable enough for a visit,” she claimed. “Sometimes, a visit was planned but the facility canceled it because he was too unstable and it would have to be rescheduled.” Another user commented, “If he killed animals / threatened with a weapon — it would be in the intake transcripts of the hospital she left him in….it wasn’t.” A follower replied, commenting, “I work in a facility and just because they are violent doesn’t mean they are that way as adults. I wish she would reach out to him and get to know him NOW as an adult.” Kate replied, “And that may be the case for some but you don’t know anything about what his behavior has been like in recent years (I do) because he is choosing not to tell you that part.” As fans continue to read Shadow of Eight, Collin’s rep Adriane Schwartz is responding to some of Kate’s social media claims. “It is disturbing that Kate continues to make false accusations and publicly attack her own child despite multiple professional psychological evaluations contradicting her claims,” Schwartz said in a statement to Us on Monday. “Let us be absolutely clear: Collin has never used a weapon to harm a family member, nor has he ever harmed or killed an animal in his lifetime. These allegations are categorically false.” The statement continued, “To publicly accuse your innocent child of such heinous acts to protect your reputation is beyond reprehensible. Collin has shown extraordinary courage in telling his story, and he will not be intimidated or silenced by these damaging accusations.”

James Comey Faces New Charges Amidst Leak Allegations: What You Need to Know New

James Comey Faces New Charges Amidst Leak Allegations: What You Need to Know

See more of our coverage in your search results. Former FBI Director James Comey was slapped with a fresh set of criminal charges Monday for allegedly leaking sensitive national defense information to the New York Times.The two counts against Comey mark the third time the Department of Justice has gone after the ex-lawman and Trump administration critic since the start of President Trump’s second term.Prosecutors accuse Comey of “knowingly and wittingly” transmitting national defense information as well as conspiring to do so in a “criminal information” filing made in the US District Court for the District of Columbia. Former FBI Director James Comey is facing federal charges for the third time in President Trump’s second term. APThe alleged crime took place on Oct. 4-5, 2016.Comey “through one and more co-conspirators directed Individual #1 to disclose national defense information to a reporter for a national news publication” in violation of federal law, according to prosecutors. The new charges stem from an Oct. 5, 2016, article in the New York Times, headlined “Yahoo Said to Have Aided U.S. Email Surveillance by Adapting Spam Filter,” written by reporter Charlie Savage. “The United States’ investigation has uncovered evidence that former FBI Director, James B. Comey, sought to correct misinformation which had appeared in the press by way of Reuters the day before,” Special Assistant US Attorney Dustin Farahnak wrote in a filing, according to NBC News.“The investigation has uncovered evidence that Mr. Comey directed staff to speak to Mr. Savage about specific accuracy concerns related to the Reuters article, and thereby illegally transferred classified information.” Comey claimed in a Substack video that he is innocent. James Comey / InstagramThe alleged disclosure took place while Comey was head of the FBI under former President Barack Obama. He would be fired by Trump in May 2017. “Well, they’re back, again,” Comey said in a video posted on his Substack. “It would almost be funny if it wasn’t such an appalling abuse of the Department of Justice, one that we cannot become numb to.”“Nothing’s changed with me,” the former FBI chief added. “I’m still innocent, and I’m still not afraid of these people and I still believe in the independent judiciary.”The case was filed under seal by the DOJ on Oct. 5 and made public after Comey’s lawyers filed a motion to unseal it. Comey’s attorneys have also asked the court to dismiss the case. A Justice Department spokesperson told The Post that the DOJ “filed a waiverless criminal information to toll the statute of limitations as it relates to allegations concerning former FBI Director Comey.”“Filing a criminal information to toll the statute of limitations is a widely recognized practice in federal court and has been approved by multiple Circuit Courts of Appeals,” the spokesperson continued. “This is an ongoing criminal investigation, and we will not comment further.”The new charges against Comey surfaced on the same day a US district judge ruled that the former FBI director’s daughter, Maurene Comey, was illegally fired from the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York last year. The judge ordered the Trump administration to reinstate Maurene Comey and provide her with back pay. James Comey was indicted by a federal grand jury last September on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice. The case was dismissed after a judge ruled Lindsey Halligan, then US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, was unlawfully appointed. The former FBI director was indicted again in April on charges of threatening to kill Trump in May 2025 when he posted a photograph on Instagram of seashells arranged to read “8647.”Comey is still awaiting trial in the seashell case.

Chrishell Stause Opens Up About Emotional G Flip Split After Three Years New

Chrishell Stause Opens Up About Emotional G Flip Split After Three Years

Selling Sunset alum Chrishell Stause has announced her split from G Flip after three years of marriage. “I have a pretty humbling update to share with you guys,” Stause, 45, said in an Instagram video on Monday, October 26. “G and I are no longer together, and we have agreed to treat this public separation with love and respect for each other. That's not hard for me because I am in love with this person.” Stause added that she doesn’t “have all the information or the reasons” for their split yet. “I'm sure, just like always, with time, you get the lessons you're meant to get, and I know that will happen, and I'm gonna heal, and everything's gonna be fine,” she continued. “I'm definitely never doing this again, but I just felt like you guys deserved a little bit more than a cold written statement because you have been so supportive and so loving, and we really appreciate that.” Stause added that she feels “like a little bit of a failure” after her second broken marriage. (The reality TV personality was previously married to Tracker star Justin Hartley from 2017 to 2021.) “There's nothing you could say about me that would be worse than what I say to myself, so I just have to kind of heal and figure this out,” she said. “It's hard. It's painful. I'm a lover girl. I swing big. I miss, or maybe I don't miss.” Despite their breakup, the reality star emphasized she had an “amazing over four years with G.” “So maybe that's not a miss, you know?” she continued. “I mean, it's just coming to terms with it being a different ending than you had imagined. So, with all that being said, I wanted to give you guys a life update. … I don't know what I hope for myself. I just — it's really hard and stressful to share this information because I'm kind of going through it.” Stause concluded with a message for her ex. “I will always love G, and I don't ever really see that changing,” she said. “And this sucks, but everyone deserves to be happy, and I wish that for both of us. So thank you.” Stause and G Flip, 33, met in October 2021 and began dating in March 2022. The pair tied the knot in Las Vegas in May 2023, followed by a vow renewal that July and subsequent ceremonies in July 2024 and July 2025. Prior to their split, Stause and G Flip were open about their desire to start a family and their IVF journey. “We are actively trying [to have kids],” Stause exclusively told Us in April 2025. She also gushed about her relationship with G Flip. “I think what makes it special is that we just really meet each other where we are, and it’s a really beautiful thing,” Stause told Us. “We celebrate every part of each other, whether it’s the parts a lot of people like or the weird, funny, silly, unique parts, us being nerds to each other. I just feel like it’s just really exciting anytime [G’s] in the room and vice versa, just because they’re my favorite human being.”

David Ellison's Skydance Shakes Up Workforce with New Buyout Offer New

David Ellison's Skydance Shakes Up Workforce with New Buyout Offer

See more of our coverage in your search results. David Ellison’s Skydance is offering voluntary buyouts to employees as the media giant pushes ahead with plans to slash costs following its takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, according to an internal email obtained by The Post.The media giant is also imposing a five-day return-to-office mandate across its operations, marking another major shakeup for workers as Ellison seeks to streamline the sprawling entertainment empire. The buyout offers are being extended to employees with at least 15 years of experience at the company, are at the vice-president rank or lower, are “at will” workers and meet certain geographic criteria, according to the memo. The last point means the offer applies to employees in the US, UK, Hong Kong, United Arab Emirates and other international spots.David Ellison’s Skydance is offering voluntary buyouts to employees as the media giant pursues billions in annual cost savings. Variety via Getty ImagesThe offer comes after months of turmoil at CBS News, which Skydance acquired with the rest of the network’s parent company Paramount last year.“It’s ugly. Most people seem to be leaning towards asking for a buyout. Folks are tired,” said CBS News source.In the Monday memo signed by Ellison and Skydance co-CEO Ynon Kreiz, the former Mattel chief who joined the company earlier this month, executives announced a new voluntary buyout program aimed at eligible employees who may not like the new office policy.“As we bring our teams together, we recognize that not everyone will see their future here, and we respect that,” the email stated.“To give eligible employees the option to move on in a way that works for them, we are introducing a Voluntary Buyout (VBO) Program.”Employees who qualify will receive individualized offers spelling out their terms and a window to decide whether to accept the one-time package.The memo did not specify how many workers would be eligible, how much they would receive or when the program would take effect.Skydance co-CEOs David Ellison and Ynon Kreiz announced voluntary employee buyouts and a five-day return-to-office mandate in an internal memo. AP Photo/Yuki IwamuraNews of the buyout was first reported by the Washington Post.The move comes just weeks after Skydance completed its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery on Oct. 6, bringing HBO, CNN and Warner Bros. under the same corporate roof as Paramount, CBS and Paramount+.Ellison has pledged to wring at least $6 billion in annual savings from the combination within three years, largely through technology consolidation and layoffs.The aggressive cost-cutting campaign comes as the newly enlarged company shoulders a massive debt burden of about $82.5 billion against $7.9 billion in cash as of June 30.Skydance aims to reduce its debt burden by the end of 2029 while generating more than $10 billion in annual cash flow by 2030 — money that could help pay down borrowings.Elon Musk recently invested roughly $1 billion in Skydance, according to a report last week by Semafor, deepening his business ties to the Ellison family.Skydance co-CEO Ynon Kreiz said in a joint memo with David Ellison that workers would receive advance notice before the five-day office mandate takes effect. Bloomberg via Getty ImagesThe new buyout offer follows an earlier round of belt-tightening after Ellison merged Skydance with Paramount in August 2025.The Paramount-Skydance merger initially carried a $2 billion annual cost-savings target, which management raised to at least $3 billion in November 2025.In October of that year, Paramount Skydance announced it would be laying off about 1,000 employees. Roughly 600 other workers accepted a voluntary severance option linked to an earlier return-to-office program.By February, management said it expected to achieve more than $2.5 billion in annualized efficiencies by the end of 2026.The latest companywide directive will require employees across Skydance to report to their offices five days a week, extending a policy already in place at Paramount.“We believe in-person collaboration is vital to our culture and to the success of our business,” the executives wrote.“Especially in a creative company like ours, the best ideas come from people in the same room, sharing perspectives, challenging one another and solving problems.”The memo acknowledged that the stricter policy could disrupt the routines of employees who have been working remotely or on hybrid schedules.Skydance is offering voluntary buyouts to eligible employees as it seeks at least $6 billion in annual cost savings following its Warner Bros. Discovery takeover. Bloomberg via Getty ImagesSkydance said it would implement the requirement in phases by location, with workers receiving advance notice before the changes take effect.The company also pledged to work with managers to support employees through the transition, while directing those eligible for buyouts to review their individual offers and consult human resources before deciding whether to leave.The Post has sought comment from Skydance.

Nobody Wants This star Tovah Feldshuh is weighing in after Adam Brody publicly showed support for Palestine amid the long-running Israel conflict. “To accuse the Jewish people of genocide is wild,” Feldshuh, 77, recently told The New York Post. “It’s right out of [Adolf] Hitler’s playbook. You take the victim and you make the victim the perpetrator.” Feldshuh, who plays Brody's mother on the Netflix series, was asked whether accusations of genocide are worse when they come from Jewish people themselves, to which she replied, “[It] makes a difference to the [Jewish] community.” The actress claimed the biggest damage comes from people with large platforms, but she didn't name Brody specifically. Brody, 46, recently made headlines when he gave his opinion on the ongoing conflict, telling GQ, “I have spoken a lot about it privately. I haven’t spoken much about it publicly. Put me down as thinking it’s a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine.” He continued: “It’s awful that it’s taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it’s reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago. I’m hopeful that another administration can really do some good and correct some of these policies that are helping that situation be as awful as it is.” Feldshuh, meanwhile, explained why she has been outspoken about her support for Israel. “I believe that the perseverance of the existence of the state of Israel is crucial to the well-being of the democratic world and of the free world,” she said. “Of course, Israel needs the United States, [but] the United States needs Israel, believe you me.” Feldshuh also noted that political disagreements haven't taken place on set as she has “to switch channels and do my job.” “My job, as Bina but also as Tovah, is to love the people on set at my place of work, to be kind,” she added. Feldshuh isn't the only person from the Nobody Wants This world to address Brody's recent interview. Cocreator Erin Foster also spoke out on the "complicated" situation in a clip from her upcoming “Not Skinny But Not Fat” episode. “I think our work environment, our set is very similar to dinner tables around the world where people are having debate and discussion and disagreeing," Foster, 44, said on the podcast. “While I love Adam, I also disagree with him. And that’s OK.” The executive producer, who converted to Judaism before marrying music executive Simon Tikhman, reflected on using her outlook to bring Nobody Wants This to life. The show, which just returned for its third season, follows the love story between agnostic Joanne (Kristen Bell) and rabbi Noah (Brody). “I think that as the creator of the show, all I can say is that I want our Jewish fans to know that I see you and I hear you and I understand how you feel. And the show has always been and always will be a love letter to Judaism,” Foster explained. “That is why I made this show. It’s because of how beautiful of an experience I’ve had becoming Jewish and being a Jewish person, and sitting here right now at this time in the world where there is almost zero positive representation of Jewish people, I think it’s so important to have that.” She concluded: “That being said, everyone is entitled to a different opinion than me. I can just tell you what I created this show for, what the intention of the show is.”

Sharon Osbourne's Heartfelt Last Moments with Ozzy: A Kiss to Remember

Sharon Osbourne's Heartfelt Last Moments with Ozzy: A Kiss to Remember

Sharon Osbourne is opening up about her final moments with her late husband, Ozzy Osbourne. The rock legend died at age 76 in July 2025 at the family’s home in Buckinghamshire, England, while Sharon, 74, was still asleep, she recalled to the BBC in an interview published on Monday, October 26. “We'd spoken in the night. Ozzy had woken in the night and he asked me to kiss him twice, and I did,” Sharon said of her last moments with Ozzy the night before he died. “And then he said, 'Hold me, hold me tight,' and I did.” “And then the next thing I know, it's early in the morning, and someone comes rushing into the room saying, 'Come down now.’ I ran down, and that was it,” she said. The former Talk cohost told the BBC that she visits Ozzy’s grave every day and is still consumed by grief over a year after his death. “You've lost the love of your life, so you don't just wake up and go, 'I'm fine now. I'm cured,’” she said. “You never get over it. But you learn to live with it, and that's what I'm trying to do. So you either sit in a room and don't come out, or you accept it, befriend it, and that's it.” Ozzy is buried in the family’s garden in Buckinghamshire, Sharon said. “There was no way I could put Ozzy in a public graveyard,” she explained. “I've seen what happens to other people in the public eye. There's no peace because people want to come and they want to pay their respects. That's an ongoing thing, and I wanted Ozzy to rest and just be.” Sharon and Ozzy wed in 1982 and share three children: daughters Aimee, 43, and Kelly, 41, and son Jack, 40. (Ozzy also had three children from his first marriage.) The Black Sabbath star’s cause of death was cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease, per a death certificate obtained by the U.K.’s Sun newspaper in August 2025. His death certificate listed his profession as “songwriter, performer and rock legend.” Just weeks before his death, Ozzy performed with Black Sabbath one final time in his home city of Birmingham. “He was just so, so happy,” Sharon told the BBC. “He was online, going through the reviews and saying, 'There's something terribly wrong,' and I'm like, 'Why?' He goes, ‘I didn't get slagged by anybody. Why are people being nice to me? And I'm like, ‘Because they like you.’” “He was just floating for those last 17 days. It was great. It was joyous,” she said of Ozzy’s final days after the concert on July 5, 2025.
