Kelly Osbourne speaks on grief amid weight-loss scrutiny

Kelly Osbourne has spoken publicly for the first time about the profound grief and personal struggle she has endured since the death of her father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, in July 2025. In an interview with Hello! magazine, the 41-year-old described the past year as the hardest of her life, revealing she was "so sick" with grief that she could not navigate the intense public scrutiny and body-shaming that followed. Ozzy Osbourne, the Black Sabbath frontman, died of a heart attack at his home in England on July 22, 2025, at the age of 76. His daughter said the family chose to keep him at home for several days after his passing, allowing them to mourn privately. "We didn't put my dad in any sort of morgue," Kelly Osbourne explained. "He came straight home and we got to spend a few days with him and mourn with him." In the months following his death, Kelly Osbourne faced significant public commentary about her dramatic weight loss, particularly after attending the BRIT Awards in February 2026. She stated she was in no condition to handle the criticism at the time. "I didn't navigate it. I wasn't well," she said.
