The Osbournes are moving to Buckinghamshire next year.

Over the weekend, legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne revealed that he’s become fed up with the excess of gun violence in the United States. As such, he and his family are planning on leaving the country in the near future to return to their estate in Buckinghamshire.

“Everything’s f—— ridiculous” Osbourne said in an interview with The Observer. “I’m fed up with people getting killed every day. God knows how many people have been shot in school shootings.”

Ozzy has said that whenever he passes, he does not want to be “buried in fucking Forest Lawn,” referring to the Hollywood Hills cemetery where multiple famous celebrities have been memorialized. “I’m English. I want to be back. … It’s just time for me to come home,” he said.

“America has changed so drastically,” Ozzy’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, added in the interview. “It isn’t the United States of America at all. Nothing’s united about it. It’s a very weird place to live right now.”

The Osbournes are planning to return to their Buckinghamshire estate in February of 2023. While he won’t be living in the US anymore, though, Ozzy would still like to do at least one more world tour, health permitting.

“I’m saying to you I’ll give it the best shot I can for another tour. You have not seen the end of Ozzy Osbourne, I promise you. If I have to go up there and die on the first song, I’ll still be back the next day.”
