TEARFUL Jack Osbourne has given a heartbreaking update on how his mum Sharon is coping after his father's death.
Ozzy sadly passed away on July 22, with the cause of death later revealed to be a cardiac arrest.
In an interview on Good Morning America this week, Jack was asked how Sharon has been doing since her husband's tragic passing.
Sharon was married to Ozzy for 40 years.
"She's okay, but she's not okay," Jack said.
The interviewer, Chris Connelly, then asked if Sharon can "feel the affection and appreciation" from supporters.
Jack responded: "Oh my god, yeah. I know she feels the love.
"None of us expected it to be like this, with that outpour of love."
He continued: "Every child sits there and kind of has this thought about one day that their parents won't be there, and what will that be like.
"It's just a part of being human. We just didn't think of it. It was a different weight to it, you know?"
At one point during the interview, emotional Jack broke down in tears.
While talking about his father's final concert, Jack explained how he rushed into the dressing room before breaking down.
"Before he went on stage, I ran back into the dressing room…"
Choking back the tears, Jack explained how he gave him a "big hug".
"I just kissed him. I just said I was like, 'Crush it. You're going to do so good.'
"And I was crying."
He noted how as he was in the crowd watching him perform, he sobbed.
Reacting to Jack's interview, one fan said: "Respect to Jack and his strength for speaking publicly about his father."
And another wrote: "Jack loves his father so much…lost it when he started crying. I love how jack is wearing his father's beloved thumb ring."
Sharon was last spotted at a public tribute for Ozzy in Birmingham back in July shortly after his passing.
At the time, she was crying as she saw the moving fan memorials.
She has subsequently withdrawn from public appearances to mourn in private.
In footage published weeks after Ozzy's funeral, Sharon confessed she was still struggling.
Speaking alongside daughter Kelly she said: "I'm still having trouble finding the words to express how grateful I am for the overwhelming love and support you've shown on social media.
"Your comments, posts, and tributes have brought me more comfort than you know.
"None of it has gone unnoticed, in fact, it's carried me through many nights. Though I'm still finding my footing."
It came after after the Osbournes' new documentary Coming Home aired on BBC One last week.
Speaking in the documentary around two years before his death, Ozzy got candid about his 20-year-long battle with Parkinson's disease.
He explained how when he was 69, he felt good – but as soon as he turned 70, things changed.
Ozzy said that "the trap doors opened" when he reached the milestone age.
He explained: "When I was 69, I can vividly remember me thinking to myself, 'I'm 69 and I don't feel that bad'.
"Soon as I turned 70, the f***ing trap doors opened.
"I can't walk very far without getting out of breath.
"I used to work out all the time, and I can't do it now."
