Jack Osbourne honored his late father Ozzy Osbourne with a heartfelt tribute over the weekend.
The youngest son of the rock legend and Sharon Osbourne made a rare public appearance a month following Ozzy’s death at the age of 76 on July 22.
Weeks after returning to Los Angeles following his father’s funeral in the UK, Jack, 39, paid homage to his dad and his legacy on Friday as he ran errands solo.
The TV personality wore a Black Sabbath T-shirt featuring his father on the cover of the band’s 1970 self-titled debut album.
The cover featured the heavy metal star at the Mapledurham Watermill — which happened to be nearby Ozzy’s farewell concert in his hometown of Birmingham, England.

Over a week ago, he was spotted for the first time since his father’s funeral while running errands in Los Angeles.
The Black Sabbath frontman, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2019, passed away at the age of 76 on July 22 surrounded by his family. He was buried a week later on July 30.
According to his death certificate, the singer died from an ‘acute myocardial infarction’ and ‘out of hospital cardiac arrest’.
And just days after laying his beloved father to rest, Jack was seen attempting to get back to normal as he ran errands around West Hollywood during a solo outing.
Shortly after his father’s passing, Jack had previously took to social media to share a gushing tribute in honor of the Black Sabbath frontman.
Speaking on his death for the first time on social media, Jack said his ‘heart has hurt too much’ alongside some touching words to remember his father.
Jack wrote: ‘I haven’t really wanted to post anything since the passing of my father. My heart has hurt too much.
‘I’m gonna keep this short because he certainly hated long rambling speeches. He was so many things to so many people, but I was so lucky and blessed to be apart of a very small group that got to call him “Dad.”

‘My heart is full of so much sadness and sorrow, but also so much love and gratitude,’ he wrote. ‘I got 14,501 days with that man and I know that is such a blessing. I think this quote best describes my father.
‘Hunter S. Thompson once said: “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body… but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow! What a ride!'”
‘That was my dad. He lived and he lived his life fully. I love you dad.’
In late July, Jack also revealed that his dad’s final months were filmed for an upcoming BBC documentary.
During his final months, Ozzy also reunited with his band for a farewell concert at Villa Park.
He ‘knew’ that would be his last ever gig, his close friend Tom Morello has revealed.

Musical director Tom, a close friend of Ozzy’s who helped organize the concert, admitted he felt the rocker knew his days were numbered, after battling Parkinson’s disease for many years.
Speaking on US radio station Q101, he said: ‘Ozzy Osbourne had lived on the edge for such a long time, the fact he lived as long as he did was a miracle.
‘The fact he lived to play and feel that love one more time, to do Paranoid, to do Crazy Train. If you have got to go — and I wish Ozzy lived another 30 years — if you’ve got to go out… it felt like he knew.’
Tom, a guitarist for Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave, added that he got the chance to thank Ozzy after spending two years with him and his wife Sharon organizing the reunion gig.
