On an appearance on The Talk in 2020, Sharon Osbourne revealed what her family plans to do with her husband’s estate after he passes. “Everybody is different,” the TV personality said. “And I just know that my husband’s body of work, that he’s written, and kept us all in the lifestyle that we love, goes to my children.” Osbourne was father to Kelly, Aimee, Jack, Jessica, Louis, and Elliot Kingsley.
“I don’t want someone that never met my husband owning his name and likeness and selling T-shirts everywhere and whatever. No, it stays in the Osbourne family.”
