Ozzy Osbourne funeral at Buckinghamshire
Sharon Osbourne and family, as well as a range of celebrity guests, gather to lay Ozzy to rest in the grounds of his 250-acre home today. The star was laid to rest close to the Osbourne lake.
The star died last week at the age of 76.
According to the Daily Mail, a floral tribute could be seen in the grounds of the star’s home, reading “Ozzy [Bleeping] Osbourne”. The tribute is on the banks of the Osbourne lake.
A similar floral tribute to the one seen next to his coffin yesterday, reading “Ozzy” is also on display on a fountain, the publication has revealed.

An array of celebrity guests are expected to be at the funeral today, with tents being spotted in the grounds of the home.
Music legend Sir Elton John is expected to be in attendance, as are Ozzy’s Black Sabbath bandmates.
Tony Iommi, Bill Ward and Geezer Butler will be joined by James Hetfield from Metallica.
According to The Sun, singer Yungblud, who Ozzy grew close to, will be giving a reading at the service.
Ozzy Osbourne remembered in Birmingham
Yesterday saw thousands of fans line the streets of Birmingham as Ozzy’s coffin was carried through the city.
The late star’s widow, Sharon, as well as children Aimee, Kelly, Jack, and Louis, his son from his first marriage, were also seen emotionally thanking the crowds for coming.
At one point, the family stepped out of their people carriers and went to look at the floral tributes that had been left for the star.
Sharon then left her husband a tribute of her own, a white rose wrapped in black tissue paper.
Kelly also paid tribute to her dad, wearing his iconic purple sunglasses during the procession.
