On Tuesday, Obsourne’s family said in a statement to The Post that the rocker died “surrounded by love.”
“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”
Osbourne’s death comes weeks after he performed at his final Black Sabbath show on July 5 in Birmingham, England.
While backstage at the emotional farewell concert, Kelly got engaged to her boyfriend Sid Wilson. The pair share son Sid, who was born in 2022.
One day later, the former “Fashion Police” star shared the news to Instagram with a video from the proposal.
Wilson, 48, popped the question in front of Ozzy, Sharon, 72, and her brother Jack, 39.
“Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world,” the Slipknot keyboardist said, as Ozzy quipped, “F–k off, you’re not marrying my daughter.”
Wilson continued, “Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you. So, in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?”
The TV personality looked shocked as she said yes and accepted the ring on her finger. The couple kissed and hugged as their family and the show’s crew cheered.
Kelly simply captioned the clip, “Oh and this happened yesterday!”
Days later, she defended her dad against online rumors that the musician, who revealed he had Parkinson’s disease in 2020, was dying.
“So, there’s this video going around on social media, and it’s supposed to be my dad, but it’s AI,” Kelly told her fans. “And it has a voice like my dad’s David Attenborough or something.”
She continued, “And it starts out saying, ‘I don’t need a doctor to tell me that I’m going to die. I know I’m going to die.’”
“What the f–k is wrong with you people?” Kelly added. “Why would you spend your time making a video like this?”
She went on to state that Ozzy is “not dying.”
“Yes, he has Parkinson’s, and yes, his mobility is completely different than it used to be,” Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne’s daughter said, “but he’s not dying. What is wrong with you?”
Kelly also slammed the rumors that Ozzy and Sharon have a “suicide pact,” which her mother spoke about over 15 years ago.
“That was bulls–t my mum said to get attention one time,” Kelly explained, noting, “And my dad’s not dying. Stop.”
The young Osbourne first rose to fame on her family’s reality show in the early aughts.
Osbourne and Sharon, who tied the knot in 1982, documented their family’s day-to-day life on the MTV series “The Osbournes.”
The show ran for four seasons, from 2002 to 2005, and featured the patriarch, matriarch, Kelly, and Jack. Osbourne and Sharon’s eldest daughter, Aimee, 41, opted not to participate.
Over the years, Kelly has spoken about her tight-knit relationship with her dad. In May, she even shared how close Ozzy is with her two-year-old son.
“Oh my God, they’re best friends,” Kelly gushed to People. “So, favorite time of the day is nighttime because [Sidney] leaves me and gets in bed with my mom and dad because I’m staying in their house right now while my house is getting ready.”
“And he goes and gets in bed with them and they have cartoon time together and it is the sweetest thing ever. I have to literally rip him out.”
Kelly also opened up about her close bond with Jack.
The producer was previously diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, but has continued to work in the industry. He appeared on “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test” in 2023.
“To be honest with you, I still don’t know how I feel about it because it’s so unique and individual to every single person,” Kelly said of her brother’s diagnosis. “Everybody that has MS presents differently and I think that’s why it’s so hard to diagnose and that’s why so many people for so long go undiagnosed.”
“And seeing what my brother goes through and how brave he is and just what an incredible human he is in spite of having relapsing and remitting MS, you would never know if he didn’t choose to tell you,” added the star.
In 2022, she shared that Jack is “my biggest confidant.”
She added to Entertainment Tonight that he is her “first phone call every single day.”
However, Kelly and Aimee don’t share that same sibling energy.
“We’re just really different. She doesn’t understand me and I don’t understand her,” Kelly confessed on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast in 2021.
Despite her strained relationship with Aimee, the former “DWTS” contestant detailed in 2019 just how special the family’s reality show was with just the four of them.
“The first season was such a magical time in my family’s life because we had no idea what we were doing. We had no idea that the show would be so successful,” Kelly told PeopleTV’s “Reality Check” at the time. “We didn’t know how people would perceive us or anything.”
As she put it, “I think that is the most raw and vulnerable you will see any family on TV. And then it all kind of was like an explosion of too much reality for us.”
Let’s be honest—no matter how stressful the day gets, a good viral video can instantly lift your mood. Whether it’s a funny pet doing something silly, a heartwarming moment between strangers, or a wild dance challenge, viral videos are what keep the internet fun and alive.
