EXCLUSIVE: Jack Osbourne insists dad Ozzy WILL perform live again despite long recovery from ‘life-changing’ fourth surgery

Jack Osbourne has insisted dad Ozzy will perform live again despite his long recovery from a ‘life-changing’ fourth operation, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.

The 74-year-old rocker was forced to pull out of his live comeback performance at the Power Trip music festival earlier this year and has been seen walking with the support of a cane in recent months.

Ozzy was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2003 before publicly announcing his diagnosis in January 2020, and suffered an accident.

But his son has claimed he will return soon.

Speaking to DailyMail.com about whether his famous dad would ‘give it another go’, Jack revealed: ‘He’s definitely going to do a show’

It comes as Jack, 37, discussed his time on Fox’s bootcamp reality show Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test alongside Kelly Rizzo.

Speaking to DailyMail.com about whether his famous dad would ‘give it another go’, Jack revealed: ‘He’s definitely going to do a show.

‘He had surgery a few months ago and the recovery took much longer than they had hoped.

‘The whole point of that operation would be: ‘do the operation and then do Power Trip and everything will be fine.’

‘But it was difficult for him to recover from it, so they had to release a Power Trip.

“I can see him doing a show here and there in the future, but not this year.”

Jack himself has been busy with a slew of other projects, including his stint on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.

The program sees 16 celebrities undertake grueling training exercises in some of the toughest conditions.

When asked how he thinks his sister and parents would have fared, Jack replied: “They would have lasted about four seconds. Okay. The moment someone yelled at someone, whether it was my mother, sister or father, they would say, “And I’m out.”

Drawing further on his own experiences, he said the heights were “the least of my worries” but that the show was “a total kicker.”

Jack, who was given just ten days’ notice that he would be appearing on the show, said: ‘I think as far as a celebrity reality show goes, this is by far the toughest and most difficult of those shows.

“I mean Big Brother seems like a walk in the damn park.

‘I would say sign me up (to I’m A) Celebrity… Get me out of here, sign me up. Easy days compared to this… the closest you can compare this to is prison.

“I’m not just saying that because of the little information you get, your life is completely controlled by these higher powers, if you will, and you are at their disposal.

“It’s like whatever they want to do to you, as long as you’re there, you’ll do it.”

Jack’s Special Forces co-star Kelly Rizzo also revealed, “I wasn’t afraid of the actual challenges. What scared me was the endurance and sleeping. How am I going to sleep in one room with so many people?

“Those were the two things that scared me about starting it, and what was also easy was, I think, kind of relating and bonding with a lot of the people and the other recruits.

‘There were actually no strange, awkward situations. Everyone got along really well.’

The 44-year-old blogger, whose husband Bob Saget died last year, was then asked how she hoped to use Special Forces to catapult the rest of her career.

‘I think it taught me a lot of discipline, a lot about myself in terms of motivation and strength, and so I think those skills in general are very useful,” she said.

“But I have a podcast coming out called Comfort Food With Kelly Rizzo and a book I’m working on that’s half cookbook, half memoir and it also has to do with Bob, so I’m excited about those projects as well, and hopefully this ties in nicely.’

Kelly said of how she dealt with the grief after her late husband’s death: “Really being surrounded by an incredible support system and just being grateful for instead of being angry that I didn’t get more time – just being grateful for the time that I had – and that’s really what got me through from day one .

“I remember one of Bob’s very good friends at his funeral looked at me and said, ‘You’ve been robbed. It’s not fair. You were robbed.” Even from that moment on I think: I can’t think like that.

“I don’t want to think like that because then I just focus on the negative and I want to focus on the positive.”
