Sharon Osbourne became visibly emotional when she shared a condolence voicemail left by Donald Trump after the death of her husband, rock icon Ozzy Osbourne. Speaking on the family podcast, she described the message as a gesture that “he didn’t have to call” but one she deeply appreciated.
In the voicemail, President Trump told Sharon: “Hi Sharon, it’s Donald Trump and I just wanted to wish you the best and the family… Ozzy was amazing, he was an amazing guy. I met him a few times and I want to tell you he was unique in every way and talented. … I just wanted to wish you the best… Take care of yourself. Say hello to the family. Thanks, bye.”
Sharon said the call stood out because of its sincerity, noting she had only worked with Trump briefly (on Celebrity Apprentice in 2010) and had never expected such a personal contact. She emphasized that the call was “really kind of him.”
The Osbourne family also received a handwritten letter of condolence from King Charles III, which Sharon described as deeply meaningful. She praised the king for his compassion and noted the recognition from global figures made the family feel supported during a difficult time.
Ozzy Osbourne died on July 22, 2025 at age 76. His cause of death was listed as cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease.
For Sharon, the gesture by President Trump—and the way she publicly acknowledged it—offers a moment of human connection in the midst of grief. The story also reflects how personal relationships can transcend political divides, even in highly‑polarized times.
