Ozzy Osbourne, who was born in Marston Green, a suburb of Birmingham, and who died at the age of 76, was one of the city's most celebrated cultural icons. He and Sharon Osbourne were married for 43 years before his death.

Sharon Osbourne was married to rock legend Ozzy Osbourne for 43 years. They had children together, built a family together, and became a well-known reality couple together. So it's not surprising at all that Ozzy's death has struck Sharon very emotionally.

The Osbourne family is expected to look at the sea of tributes when the cortège reaches Broad Street at around 1pm. Crowds of people, many wearing Ozzy Osbourne T-shirts and holding posters and other tributes, are already waiting behind metal barriers all along Broad Street.
