In December 2003, Ozzy almost died in quad bike accident and had to undergo emergency surgery.
Among his injuries were “a broken collarbone, eight fractured ribs that were pinching crucial blood vessels and a damaged vertebrae in his neck.”
While he initially recovered, the old injury was aggravated as a result of a fall in his home.
In 2019, when the star fell in his bedroom after trying to get into bed, falling and landing awkwardly on the floor.
Jack Osbourne, Ozzy’s son, was also in the interview with Morgan and said that it was ‘one of the biggest misconceptions’ that his frailty was due to Parkinson’s, when it was his injuries that were the main root of his problems.
Ozzy explained that the fall ‘undid’ all his progress as a result.
“I don’t gripe, I get on with it. If you are still moving, you ain’t going to be dead,” Ozzy assured.
His ongoing medical recovery put a halt to plans for the couple to return to their native England to live, opting to remain in Los Angeles.
