Sharon Osbourne has shared a heartfelt message to fans on social media following the death of her husband Ozzy Osbourne on July 22. The X Factor alum had kept out of the spotlight following the devastating news of Ozzy's passing, but on Friday 12 September, she shared a lengthy post thanking everyone for their support and messages, admitting that they have helped her get through the past few weeks. She accompanied the post with a video of herself with her daughter Kelly Osbourne, which had been taken during a trip to Cornwall Falcony Farm, where they had paid a visit during a trip to the British coastal town.
She wrote: "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, I wanted to share some glorious creatures I had the chance to spend an afternoon with. The connection you make with these powerful birds is built entirely on trust and confidence.

"I love you all, and I thank you deeply for the otherworldly amount of love you continue to send my way." Comments included: "Sharon we are all thinking of you and sending you so much comfort and love," and "Sending much love your way, Sharon. So lovely to see you bonding with the amazing owls." Another fan wrote: "We love you Sharon! You are not alone in this! As painful as it is, he brought nothing but joy and happiness and that is what we need to celebrate moving forward! Much love to your family. We love you all!!!"

A bird is then seen flying to Sharon and landing on her gloved-up arm, before the TV personality replied, "I don't have anything to give you." Kelly had originally shared the video on her own Instagram post, and wrote: "Today I introduced my mom to falconry and she loved it! Thank you @gerardsulter for putting a smile on my mom's face too!"
