Jack Osbourne believes his father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, is staying connected from beyond. In a December 2025 interview on Sirius XM’s Billy Morrison’s Influenced, Jack detailed how multiple family members have been visited by the Black Sabbath frontman in their dreams.
Shared Dream Experiences
Jack, 40, told host Billy Morrison that the phenomenon spans generations and households.
“We all keep having dreams about him. In the dreams, he is laughing,” Jack said.
The dreams carry a consistent message. Jack recalled Ozzy’s words in each vision:
- “Just stop f—ing crying”
- Laughter accompanies every appearance
- The same scenario repeats for Jack, wife Aree, and their daughters
“Me and my wife, my daughters, all the same thing. We keep seeing him in our dreams, laughing,” Jack explained.
Morrison revealed he too experienced a similar dream, offering comfort to Jack during the conversation.
“I’ve seen him. He’s good, Jack. He’s not in pain,” Morrison said, according to the interview.
Family Structure and Expectations
Jack’s blended family includes seven children across two relationships:
| Child | Age | Mother |
|---|---|---|
| Pearl | 13 | Lisa Stelly |
| Andy | 10 | Lisa Stelly |
| Minnie | 7 | Lisa Stelly |
| Maple | 3 | Aree Gearhart |
| Baby | Due 2026 | Aree Gearhart |
Jack and Aree, 34, announced in December 2025 they are expecting their second child together. Aree was 28 weeks pregnant at the time of the announcement to The Sun on Sunday.
Jack described the pregnancy as “awesome” and “sort of planned,” noting:

- Timing came “a little earlier than expected”
- The couple had been “wanting to pursue” another child
- Conception happened “miraculously”
Connecting with Ozzy Before Death
Timing allowed Jack to share the pregnancy update with his father before Ozzy’s July 2025 death at age 76.
Jack believes the impending birth serves multiple emotional purposes for the family:
- “Healthy distraction” from grief
- “Healing” element during mourning
- “Full cycle” feeling in the grieving process
“It’s very much taken energy out of the grieving side of things and parked in a bit more hopefulness,” Jack told The Sun on Sunday.
Processing Loss Through Dreams
The recurring dream motif represents more than coincidence for Jack. The identical nature of the visions across family members suggests to him a deliberate message from his father.
Ozzy’s laughter and directive to stop crying indicate to Jack that the rock star wants his family to find joy rather than remain stuck in sorrow. The dreams began after the July 2025 death and have continued through December 2025, maintaining their consistent format each time.
Jack’s openness about the experiences reflects the Osbourne family’s history of sharing personal struggles publicly. By discussing both the dreams and the pregnancy during the same interview period, Jack connects the two life events as complementary forces helping the family navigate their loss.
The interview with Morrison provided a platform for Jack to process these parallel experiences – the supernatural visits from his father and the natural cycle of new life entering the family. Both elements serve what Jack describes as moving energy “out of the grieving side of things” toward future-focused emotions.
