Congratulations are in order for Ozzy Osbourne, and his wife Sharon, who are celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary this week. I know, right? Seems totally unheard of in Hollywood but it can happen for those willing to stick by their partner through the ups and the downs. And as fans know, this pair has had a lot of downs.

Both Sharon and Ozzy recently shared sweet tributes to one another on social media, and friends, family, and fans alike were quick to share messages of support.

Most of us know Ozzy Osbourne as the frontman for the legendary rock group Black Sabbath.

After being hailed the "Prince of Darkness" Ozzy managed to rebrand himself as quite the family man. After two children from a previous relationship, Ozzy married wife Sharon in 1982, and the pair went on to have three children together.

Of course, as we all know, Ozzy and his family basically invented reality TV because before there were the Kardashians, there were the Osbournes.

From 2002 to 2005, fans tuned in to MTV to watch the Osbourne family's hijinks.

The show was cemented into pop culture and is remains one of MTV's most iconic shows.

This week, Sharon and Ozzy celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary.

The pair, who tied the knot on July 4th, 1982, took to social media to commemorate the milestone anniversary.

Sharing a photo from the pair's wedding day, the Black Sabbath singer wrote: "40 Years Ago Today! Happy Anniversary My Love!"

Sharon, who opted for a more recent photo, also posted a heartfelt message on Instagram.

"2022 is a special year for me," the mom of three wrote. "It marks 40 years of marriage to my darling Ozzy. We first met when I was 18, over 52 years we have been friends, lovers, husband & wife, grandparents and soulmates."

"Always at each other’s side. I love you Ozzy," she wrote, before signing the post as "Sharrrrrrron."

"Congratulations!!!! I love the pair of you. I love your honesty the most," said another.

Happy anniversary, you two!
