Ozzy Osbourne is to hit the road again after nearly passing out while watching his wife undergo chemotherapy treatment for colon cancer.
The Birmingham-born rocker has cancelled plans to take a three week break from touring while his wife and manager of 20 years receives the treatment, the couple’s spokesman said.
"After attending his wife Sharon’s first chemotherapy treatment, he nearly passed out and had to be taken to a recovery room," the publicist said in a statement.
"Sharon now realises that Ozzy is better off on the road so she’s shipped him back out to finish OZZfest."
The former Black Sabbath star is headlining OZZfest, an annual road show of hard rock acts organised by his 49-year-old wife.
He will join up with the tour again on August 7 in Clarkston, Michigan.
