The surgery, which Ozzy's wife Sharon described as a "major operation," took place on Monday.

During an episode of her U.K. talk show, "The Talk" last week, Sharon said that the procedure was "really gonna determine the rest of [Ozzy's] life." She didn't speak on the exact nature of the operation.

In a statement posted on Tuesday, Sharon said Ozzy was "doing well" and "on the road to recovery."

Ozzy, 73, told Classic Rock magazine in an interview published in May that he was "waiting on some more surgery" on his neck. Ozzy suffered a fall in 2019, which aggravated injuries he sustained in a 2003 ATV accident.
