Despite being unable to appear in public for protocol and security reasons, **William represented the Royal Family in sending the Osbourne family a formal telegram and a special gift that has never been revealed.

A royal envoy approached the memorial stand and personally handed the family a wooden box covered in black velvet, with a gold-plated Royal insignia on the lid. Inside was a telegram printed on high-quality vellum and a commemorative badge — once described as “a rare tribute to those whose influence on British culture has been profound for generations.”

The message opened in William’s handwriting:

“I write on behalf of His Majesty and the entire Royal Family… We bow before a legend beyond measure.”

But what brought tears to many was not the letter… but the mysterious badge that accompanied it — kept secret until the last minute. According to the representative: “The badge is engraved with Ozzy’s signature black cross, set in a silver laurel wreath, with the Latin inscription: ‘Cantus aeternus. Vox populi.’” (Eternal song. Voice of the people.)

 

Ozzy’s daughter, a young girl with a distinctive purple hair, could not hold back her tears when she opened the box and saw the sparkling gift in her hands. She hugged the souvenir to her chest, as if embracing her father’s musical legacy.

Fans and artists present recounted that in that moment, no one said a word. Everyone stood in silence — as if the memorial was not just for Ozzy, but for a timeless icon.

This seemingly silent act from royalty became the most moving highlight, a message that: even if you can’t be present — love and respect can still be sent in the most solemn and unexpected way.
