OZZY Osbourne's little-known son and daughter from his first marriage have paid heartwarming tributes to their dad after his death.
The rock icon died at home in his stunning mansion in Welders, Buckinghamshire, just weeks after his emotional farewell show.




Ozzy passed away aged 76, "surrounded by his family" on Tuesday morning, after bravely battling against Parkinson's disease.
His children Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis, were named along with wife Sharon in the statement.
And lesser-spotted Louis chose to pay his respects with his own tribute to his father on social media.
Ozzy's son, who now works as a DJ, changed his Facebook profile picture to an all-black screen.
Before tying the knot to Sharon, Ozzy had married his first wife Thelma Riley in 1971 after meeting her in a Birmingham nightclub.
Together, they welcomed children Jessica and Louis, who have been largely away from the limelight.
Jessica, who was not included in the family statement, also posted a tribute to rock legend Ozzy on Instagram.
Her story featured a pictures of her late father in black and white with the words "RIP Ozzy".
The tribute was accompanied by Ozzy's song 'Crazy Train' playing in the background.
Jessica made the Black Sabbath frontman a grandparent for the first time but never appeared in The Osbournes' TV show.
However, she was mentioned in the episode 'Smells Like Teen Spirits' when Ozzy learned that she had welcomed a daughter.
Ozzy also adopted Thelma's five-year-old son Elliot from a previous relationship.
After divorcing Thelma, Osbourne went on to marry Sharon in 1982.
The pair had three children together with their first child, Aimee born in 1983.
One year later, they welcomed daughter Kelly and on November 8, 1985, their son, Jack was born.
It comes as Ozzy's sisters paid tribute to their "loving and funny" brother after his death.
Ozzy became known as the "Prince of Darkness" in his six-decade career thanks to his on-stage antics that attracted a legion of heavy rock fans.
Although his wild behaviour would have been enough to see some artists blacklisted, Ozzy became a loveable rogue who captured fans' hearts across the globe.

Piers penned: "RIP Ozzy Osbourne.
"One of the greatest rock stars in history, and a wonderful character.
"Truly one of the funniest people I've ever known. I'm so glad he got to do his final show back in Birmingham two weeks ago, it meant so much to him.
"I once asked Ozzy what was the best moment of his life and he replied instantly: 'Meeting Sharon.' My heart breaks for her."
Danny Baker
The comedy writer and radio DJ wrote: "I have been a Black Sabbath fan almost my entire life.

"They were just immense. A thundering voice and noise direct from the working class."

"Rest in peace, Ozzy."
PETA
PETA said in a statement to The Sun – From PETA Senior Vice President Lisa Lange:
"Ozzy Osbourne was a legend and a provocateur, but PETA will remember the "Prince of Darkness" most fondly for the gentle side he showed to animals—most recently cats, by using his fame to decry painful, crippling declawing mutilations.
"Ozzy may have been the singer, but his wife, Sharon, and his daughter, Kelly, were of one voice when it meant protecting animals.
"Ozzy will be missed by animal advocates the world over."
Yungblud
Singer-songwriter Yungblud wrote on X: "I didn't think you would leave so soon the last time we met you were so full of life and your laugh filled up the room.
"But as it is written with legends, they seem to know things that we don't.
"I will never forget you – you will be in every single note I sing and with me every single time I walk on stage.
"Your cross around my neck is the most precious thing I own.
"You asked me once if there was anything you could do for me and as I said then and as I will say now for all of us the music was enough.
"You took us on your adventure – an adventure that started it all. I am truly heartbroken. You were the greatest of all time."
Rod Stewart
The 80-year-old shared in his Instagram story: "Bye, bye Ozzy. Sleep well my friend.
"I'll see you up there – later rather than sooner. – Sir Rod Stewart"
In 2001, Ozzy appealed to a whole new audience after appearing in reality TV show The Osbournes with his family.
Its first series was the most-watched show ever on MTV and propelled Jack and Kelly into stardom, with the latter enjoying a music career of her own.
With the family's success growing, they hosted the 30th Annual American Music Awards and later the Brit Awards in London.
The family's hugely popular show ran until 2005 and portrayed heartbreaking moments for the family – including Sharon's battle with cancer and the quad bike accident that nearly killed Ozzy.
The family later starred in the reality series The Osbournes Want to Believe and special The Osbournes: Night of Terror, which both focused on paranormal investigations.
Ozzy last graced the stage earlier this month when he reunited with his bandmates Geezer Butler, Tony Iommi and Bill Ward and played a five-song set in a farewell to music.
The gig was touted as "the greatest heavy metal show ever," with Ozzy grinning to chanting fans as he thanked them for all they had done for him.
