Ozzy Osbourne has tested positive with Covid-19, his wife Sharon Osbourne revealed in a new interview.

Sharon added, “It’ll take me a week to get my old man back on his feet again, and I will be back [on The Talk] in a week… We’re gonna get him a negative test by next week.”
Ozzy previously jokingly credited Satan with helping him ward off Covid-19 for the first two years of the pandemic. “My wife had the virus; my daughter had the virus and I never got it,” he quipped. “Being a devil worshipper does have its good points!”
