Kelly Osbourne has admitted that she was “so sick” following the death of her father, Ozzy Osbourne, as she opened up about her weight. However, she says she is now ‘getting a lot better’.
The star, 41, was left devastated when the Black Sabbath frontman died in July 2025. In the months that followed, Kelly faced intense scrutiny over her weight loss, with the star admitting she ‘wasn’t well’ at the time but has since received help and support.
Kelly Osbourne’s sad confession about her weight following Ozzy’s death
The star opened up about the aftermath of her dad’s death in an interview with HELLO! magazine.
“I didn’t navigate it – I wasn’t well…How can you navigate something so cruel when you’re so sick? I’m getting a lot better. I’ve got all the help I need, and I’m grateful for the support I have in my life. [I have] this incredible team of people I’ve built around me who are not just my friends, because what you’ll find when you’re grieving is that people don’t know how to handle it, and you do lose a lot of friends…
“But the ones who stick around are the real ones.”
Kelly’s heartbreak
Kelly, who recently split from ex-Slipknot star Sid Wilson, whom she shares son Sidney with, also admitted she believes ‘a part of her died’ when Ozzy passed away.
The star heartbreakingly admitted she will never be the same again. She added that the past year has been the ‘hardest’ of her life.
She said: ‘It’s been the hardest year of my life. I’ll never be the person I was before my father died… a part of me died, too. Everything is different. I’m different. Everything has changed, but it’s just taking it one day at a time and putting the pieces back together in a way that you think will work.’
Kelly Osbourne talks therapy
Kelly went on to say that she has found therapy helpful, and admitted she has a “lifetime of work” ahead of her when it comes to working through her grief.
The star said that it’s a case of putting “one foot in front of the other”, but admitted it’s a “slow process”.
However, she admitted that it’s “great” discovering things about herself and the reasons why she does things stem from her childhood.
“I’m getting to know myself in a whole new way, but it’s a lot more healthy; I can tell you that.”
