Ozzy Osbourne Says He No Longer Wants to Move Back to UK: ‘If I Had My Way, I’d Stay in America’

Ozzy Osbourne is still planning to move back to England, but he’s not exactly looking forward to it.

Less than three months after claiming he and wife Sharon were moving back to the U.K. due to the steep number of shootings in the U.S., the 73-year-old Black Sabbath rocker expressed second thoughts toward the decision in a new Consequence cover story published Monday.

“I’m getting a bit of flak from people,” Ozzy said, referencing mixed social media responses to his quotes about violence in the U.S., which were published in an August interview with The Observer.

Shortly after making the statements, he and Sharon, 69, announced a new, 10-part BBC reality series called Home to Roost that will document their journey back to Britain. In the new interview, however, the “Crazy Train” musician said, “To be honest with you, if I had my way, I’d stay in America. I’m American now.”

Ozzy explained that the decision to move was inspired by backlash toward Sharon’s March 2021 exit from the daytime talk show The Talk following her defense of Piers Morgan’s controversial remarks questioning the validity of Meghan Markle’s discussion on mental health during an interview with Oprah Winfrey.

“When my wife got called a racist on [The Talk], she is absolutely not a racist,” he told Consequence. “Her friend is Piers Morgan… She didn’t say, ‘I agree with him.’ She just respected his ability to have freedom of speech. That’s all that she said. And she got a lot of flak from that, so we actually had to have f–king armed guards and all that.” – Source
