Ozzy has not been having the best luck with his health lately.
In late 2018, the Prince of Darkness had to cancel the final four days of his farewell U.S. tour recently, due to some emergency hand surgery. Ozzy revealed one day he noticed his thumb was “the size of a fuckin’ lightbulb” and Sharon made him go to the emergency room. The staph infection could've been deadly! But he was okay. Now, unfortunately, Osbourne has come down with the flu.
Judas Priest, who are opening Ozzy's shows, broke the news on Instagram:
“It is with great regret we have to announce that the first four UK shows on the Ozzy Osbourne/Judas Priest tour have been postponed due to Ozzy having a very bad case of flu – therefore Dublin, Nottingham, Manchester and Newcastle will be rescheduled at a later date – details to follow once finalised – we are very sorry that this has happened and to disappoint so many fans – we wish Ozzy well and look forward to the Glasgow, Birmingham and London shows together – and to the rescheduled ones in the future.”
We wish Ozzy a speedy recovery! You can see all the dates for Ozzy's tour here.
