I’m cured’.“You never get over it. But you learn to live with it, and that’s what I’m trying to do. So you either sit in a room and don’t come out, or you accept it, befriend it, and that’s it.”She also revealed that she visits Ozzy’s grave every day, explaining why she opted to bury him in a private burial site, adding she wanted her husband to “rest”.“There was no way I could put Ozzy in a public graveyard,” she said.“I’ve seen what happens to other people in the public eye. There’s no peace because people want to come and they want to pay their respects. That’s an ongoing thing, and I wanted Ozzy to rest and just be.”Black Sabbath formed in Birmingham in 1968 and went on to become one of the most successful heavy metal bands of all time, with Ozzy dubbed the “Prince of Darkness”.
