Ozzy Osbourne's cause of death has reportedly been determined a week after the legendary rock singer was laid to rest.

The former Black Sabbath frontman died of a cardiac arrest and "acute myocardial infarction," with coronary artery disease and Parkinson's disease with autonomic dysfunction listed as "joint causes" according to a death certificate obtained by *The New York Times*.

The publication reports that Osbourne's daughter, Aimee, submitted the death certificate at a registry in London.**

The heavy metal pioneer died July 22 at the age of 76 following a series of health issues, including Parkinson's disease, which he was diagnosed with in 2019. "It's been terribly challenging for us all," he said when he announced the news in 2020. "I ain't going to go anywhere yet."

Osbourne's friends and loved ones bid farewell to the Prince of Darkness in an emotional funeral procession in Birmingham, England, on July 30. The musician's cortège was livestreamed as it arrived on Broad Street, where the Black Sabbath Bridge and bench monuments were transformed into public memorials for the late heavy metal pioneer.**

Sharon Osbourne, as well as their children Kelly Osbourne and Jack Osbourne, appeared visibly emotional as they exited a vehicle behind the hearse and left flowers alongside all the bouquets, balloons, photos, letters, and gifts left at the memorial. **

The trio was accompanied by other family members, including Aimee, Louis Osbourne, and Ozzy's grandchildren.

The procession also visited Villa Park, BBC News reports. The stadium was the location for the final Black Sabbath concert on July 5.

Osbourne was later laid to rest in a private ceremony that Wednesday, per BBC News. Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo, who was a member of Osbourne's band for years, confirmed that the thrash metal band members were among those in attendance at the ceremony in a poignant Instagram post paying tribute to his late bandmate.

In addition to being a two-time inductee to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Osbourne won three Grammys as a solo artist and two as a member of Black Sabbath. His first win came for Best Metal Performance With Vocal for "I Don't Want To Change The World" in 1994, followed by a win for Best Metal Performance for a live rendition of "Iron Man" in 2000.

The group also won Best Metal Performance for "God Is Dead?" in 2014, and the singer most recently took home a trophy for Best Rock Album for his final album *Patient Number 9*, as well as Best Metal Performance for "Degradation Rules" alongside Tony Iommi in 2023.**

Osbourne became a mainstream household name after the launch of *The Osbournes* in 2002. The show, which focused on the singer's family life with Sharon, Kelly, and Jack, was among MTV's most successful shows during its four-season run from 2002 to 2005. He later appeared in additional shows like *Ozzy & Jack's World Detour* and *The Osbournes Want to Believe*, and acted in projects like *Moulin Rouge* and *Gnomeo and Juliet*.

The singer played his final show just three weeks prior to his death, reuniting with the original Black Sabbath lineup — guitarist Iommi, bassist Terence Butler ("Geezer"), and drummer Bill Ward — before a crowd of 40,000 at England's Villa Park. "I don't know what to say, man, I've been laid up for like six years," he said on stage. "You have no idea how I feel — thank you from the bottom of my heart. You're all special. Let's go crazy, come on."

Towards the end of the set, Osbourne told the audience, "I just want to say to you on behalf of the guys in Black Sabbath and myself, your support over the years has made it all possible for us to live the lifestyle that we do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I love you. We love you." **
