Subsequently, in February 2010, at the age of 72, he requested to be defrocked and laicized in order to have the option of marrying and having a normal family life, a request which was then granted, and Dr. Osborne was returned to the [[laity]] and the parishes which he formerly led as a Vicariate were then given the status of a deanery.
