Ozzy Osbourne funeral latest: Heavy metal legend laid to rest at star-studded service after Birmingham procession

Ozzy Osbourne’s funeral procession gave way to a private ceremony on Wednesday afternoon, following an emotional public tribute on Birmingham’s Broad Street attended by his wife, Sharon.

At 1pm, the Black Sabbath frontman’s hearse was driven down the city centre street, with family members following behind in a procession accompanied by local brass band Bostin Brass. The cortege paused at the Black Sabbath bridge and bench, where thousands of fans have gathered since the heavy metal legend’s death last week at the age of 76.
