Despite a slew of health scares of late, Black Sabbath legend Ozzy Osbourne is feeling on top of the world.
Speaking with ET’s Matt Cohen on Friday, Ozzy gave an update on his health following major surgery last month, saying he’s “getting there” when it comes to his recovery.
“It’s great, it’s great,” he said. “I like to see people, you know. That’s been the hardest thing of the past three years, because I’ve been trying to recover from my surgery. I’m getting there. It’s a slow climb back, you know?”
The rocker’s wife Sharon Osbourne recently revealed that her husband was undergoing an operation that will “determine the rest of his life”, but didn’t share details about what the surgery was for.
American entertainment website Page Six later reported that Ozzy was set to have an operation to “remove and realign pins in his neck and back” as a result of an injury sustained from a fall in 2019.
Following the surgery, Sharon revealed that the ‘Crazy Train’ hitmaker was “doing well” after the “major” surgery.
The talk show host took to Twitter to thank fans for their support.

“I love the record. I hope the fans do [too], you know?”
