Ozzy Osbourne has been hospitalized due to flu complications, according to the former Black Sabbath frontman’s wife Sharon Osbourne. “As some of you may have heard, Ozzy was admitted to hospital following some complications from the flu. His doctors feel this is the best way to get him on a quicker road to recovery. Thanks to everyone for their concern and love,” Sharon tweeted. Last month, Ozzy was forced to postpone the entire U.K. and European leg of his “No More Tours 2” tour due to illness. Ozzy was advised by his doctors not to go on tour after he was diagnosed with a severe upper-respiratory infection, which “the doctor feels could develop into pneumonia given the physicality of the live performances and an extensive travel schedule throughout Europe in harsh winter conditions.” On January 28, Osbourne had postponed the first four dates of the tour because of the flu. “I’m completely devastated for having to postpone the European leg of my tour,” Osbourne had said in a statement at that time. “It just seems that since October everything I touch has turned to shit. First the staph infection in my thumb and now coming down with the flu and bronchitis.” “I want to apologize to all of my fans who have been so loyal over the years, my band, my crew and to (opening act) Judas Priest for letting you all down,” he added. “However, I promise the tour with Judas Priest will be completed. It’s being rescheduled right now to start in September. Again, I apologize to everyone. God Bless. Love you all, Ozzy.” Copyright(c) 2019 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
