Sharon Osbourne was visibly emotional as fans shouted “Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy” during a procession through the streets of Birmingham in honour of the heavy metal star.

Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy, who played a farewell gig in the city earlier this month, died at the age of 76 last Tuesday.

His wife, former X Factor judge Sharon, 72, could be seen hugging the Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Zafar Iqbal, after she arrived at the Black Sabbath bench where floral tributes have been laid.

She was helped out of the first vehicle in the cortege by her and Ozzy’s son Jack, who joined her at the event along with their daughters Aimee and Kelly – who all raised their hands in a peace sign while paying their respects.
