    Sharon Osbourne was looking forward to retirement so she could enjoy her "last chapter" with husband Ozzy Osbourne

    The couple had moved back to their native UK after many years living in Los Angeles and they had been planning to step away from the spotlight to enjoy quality time together after Ozzy's final show with Black Sabbath in July - but their dreams were shattered by the rock icon's shock death just two weeks later


    Sharon spoke about her plans for the future in BBC documentary Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne: Coming Home - which was filmed before the tragedy - saying: "It's our last chapter. This is it, this is our time. However long it is, it's our time. My life without him just isn't my life.

    "It's not what I was meant to be. We're like glue."

    Ozzy also joked about swapping rock for gardening, saying: "Grow some weed, perhaps."

    He added: "Time goes by like a flash. But I've had a lot of fun. I've had a lot of blood, sweat and tears, you know. It's been a great life. If I had to live my life again, I wouldn't change a thing."

    The documentary follows the couple's move back to Britain and had originally due to air in August but it was rescheduled after Ozzy's death on July 22.

    Ozzy passed away at the couple's Buckinghamshire home and he was later buried in the grounds.

    His story is also being told in a posthumous memoir called Back to the Beginning, in which the musician explains how he and Sharon discussed being buried together and how his family "don't even want to think about" death.

    In an extract from the book obtained by The Times, Ozzy wrote: "When the end does come, I don't want to be cremated. It's like you were never here. You're just a bag of dust. That's not for me. I wanna make the flowers grow.

    "The only conversation I've had with Sharon was when we decided we wanted to be buried together. I've also said to Sharon, don't you dare go before me.

    "It's my biggest fear now, Sharon leaving this world before I do. If she does, I won't be too far behind. I live for the woman."
