Last week, Ozzy Osbourne hit out at Black Sabbath bassist Geezer Butler for not reaching out to him when he became ill.
Speaking with Rolling Stone UK, the heavy metal singer said: “You do find out who’s a genuine friend when you’ve been through what I’ve had.
“Tony Iommi has been so supportive of me since my illness.
“Geezer Butler hasn’t given me one f***ing phone call. Not one f***ing call.”
And now his bandmate has released a statement defending himself on his Instagram.
Geezer wrote: “Rumour has it; Ozzy is upset, saying he never received my get well messages. I made 2 different attempts at getting in touch during his illnesses.
“My first email (8 Feb, 2019) went through his office because I didn’t have Ozzy’s new number to text him. Sharon responded but I didn’t hear back from Ozzy.”
Geezer added: “11 months later (21 Jan, 2020), I emailed Sharon to check on Oz. That email went unanswered. I don’t want to engage in a tit for tat.
“Having made 2 attempts to wish Ozzy well , without a reply, I figured it best to privately keep him in my thoughts.”
