Rock singer 'stable' after quad bike accident
Ozzy Osbourne, the former Black Sabbath singer, is reportedly stable in hospital after a serious accident at his home in Buckinghamshire landed him in intensive care with several broken bones and a crushed vertebra.
Osbourne was taken to hospital yesterday afternoon after suffering injuries in a quad bike accident at his estate at Chalfont St Peter.
He underwent surgery but despite suffering a broken collarbone, eight broken ribs and a crushed vertebra in his neck, a hospital spokesperson said that the injuries were "not a major problem".
Osbourne, 55, has enjoyed a boost to his career following the success of the MTV fly-on-the-wall show, The Osbournes.
A re-release of the Black Sabbath ballad 'Changes', in which he duets with his daughter Kelly, is a strong contender to top this year's Christmas chart.
