The Black Sabbath star and his wife Sharon have been living in rented accommodation since selling their luxury home in Hidden Hills, California to singer Jessica Simpson in 2013, but the famous family has now snapped up a new mansion in an exclusive neighbourhood in Beverly Hills.

According to TMZ.com, the Osbournes have paid $10 million (£6.3 million) for the five-bedroom, English-style property, which also boasts a large guest house.
