NextImg:Ozzy Osbourne, 74, goes for walk without cane amid Parkinson’s battle

Ozzy Osbourne is stopping to smell the flowers amid his Parkinson’s battle.

The Black Sabbath frontman took a walk without his cane in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The 74-year-old rocker’s companion picked flowers on their stroll, holding them out for Osbourne to take a whiff.

The “Crazy Train” singer wore an all-black outfit during the outing, from his shirt and shorts down to his matching sneakers and socks.

The rocker wore black from head to toe during the outing.

Osbourne was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2003, but waited until January 2020 — one year after he suffered a nasty fall in a “pitch-black” bathroom — to share his health struggles publicly.

“It’s not a death sentence by any stretch of the imagination,” the Grammy winner’s wife, Sharon Osbourne, told “Good Morning America” viewers during a joint interview at the time.

She added that Ozzy can have “a good day, a good day and then a really bad day.”

The musician gave an update on his condition last year, explaining to The Observer that Parkinson’s felt like “walking around in lead boots.”

He explained, “You think you’re lifting your feet, but your foot doesn’t move.”

Ozzy credited Sharon, 70, with helping him get through the diagnosis, claiming he’d be “f–king gone” without her support.

“We have a little row now and then, but otherwise we just get on with it,” he said.

In June 2022, Ozzy underwent a “life-altering” surgery to remove and realign pins in his neck and back from a 2003 quad biking accident exacerbated by his 2019 fall.

He has since been spotted walking with a cane on multiple occasions.

Although Ozzy performed an NFL halftime show in September 2022, he recently retired from touring and canceled his upcoming shows.

“Never would have imagined that my touring days would have ended this way,” Ozzy captioned an emotional Twitter reveal in February, writing that he was “not physically capable” of traveling to performances.

“My team is currently coming up with ideas for where I will be able to perform without having to travel from city to city and country to country,” he added at the time.

While Ozzy primarily posts throwback photos via Instagram, his son, Jack Osbourne, gave a sweet glimpse of their Easter celebration earlier this month.

The former reality star was all smiles with his four granddaughters — Pearl, 10, Andy, 7, Minnie, 5, and Maple, 9 months.
