Ozzy Osbourne has been candid about his rockstar life and fatherhood. The Black Sabbath singer spent much of his time on the road or in front of a camera, but he was always surrounded by family love.

“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” Ozzy’s family said in a statement. “He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.” His two older children, Jessica and Elliot, were not included in the statement.

“The way I treated both my wives… I was a bad father, an abusive husband and I had an ego the size of India,” he admitted to The Daily Mail. “I spent decades of my life being an absolute idiot. I’ve got so many regrets I can’t even remember half of them. But wives and kids are right at the top. It’s pointless even saying sorry. I couldn’t say it enough times. All I can do is stay sober.”

However, a confrontation with his youngest son helped him steer onto a better path. “I had a row with Jack. I had to talk business. And I said, ‘What have you ever f—g wanted? I’ll give you whatever you want,'” Ozzy recalled to Variety. “He says, ‘What about a father?’ That kicked me in the balls so hard. It knocked me sideways. I went, ‘Oh, my God.’ I’d give whatever materialistic things they ever wanted. But the most important person wasn’t there.”

Weeks before his last Black Sabbath show, he opened up about the possibilities of another reunion tour and confessed that he wants his last moments with his family. He told The Guardian, “But it’s time for me to spend some time with my grandkids, I don’t want to die in a hotel room somewhere. I want to spend the rest of my life with my family.”
