A throwback photo featuring Sharon Osbourne and rockstar husband Ozzy has resurfaced - and fans have been left stunned at how different the matriarch looks.

The TV star, 70, who became a household name after appearing in iconic US reality show The Osbournes, sports a typical 80s cropped bouffant hairdo, a baggy denim shirt and blue skirt.

The snap was taken in 1987 along with a string of family photosfeaturing the couple's three children Aimee Osbourne, 38, Kelly Osbourne, 37, and Jack Osbourne, 36 – who were still young children at the time.

And it's not just Sharon whose appearance is distinctly altered. Black Sabbath star Ozzy has drastically switched his style up by wearing a matching pale blue top, white trousers and trainers - a stark contrast to his usual black gothic vibe.

One of the shots shows the children posing for the camera, with eldest child Aimee sat on her mother's knee, whilst Kelly and youngest child Jack are held by their father.

In another photo, the family have revamped their style by replacing the light and bright airy colours with a darker tone that the family became famous for.

The throwback comes as the former X Factor judge TV reportedly fell ill while filming a new paranormal series just outside of Los Angeles according to Hollywood Life.

But Sharon’s son Jack Osbourne later shared she was heading back home from hospital and did not get drawn into the cause of her admission.

He posted: “She has been given the all clear from her medical team and is now home. Thank you to everyone who has reached out with love and support."

Much of the focus on health had been on her husband Ozzy who she is supporting after a Covid, back surgery and his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2019.

Posting on Instagram after the back surgery which she said 'would determine the rest of his life' she thanked followers for their support.

She penned: "Our family would like to express so much gratitude for the overwhelming amount of love and support leading up to Ozzy’s surgery!” “Ozzy is doing well and on the road to recovery. Your love means the world to him.”
