Kelly Osbourne has shared her deep grief after the passing of her father, the legendary Ozzy Osbourne, who died on Tuesday at 76 years old. The heavy metal icon’s death follows closely after his emotional farewell performance with Black Sabbath in Birmingham, where Kelly celebrated her engagement to Sid Wilson, a member of Slipknot, backstage. The poignant concert drew many family members and big names from the music industry, including Ronnie Wood and members of Metallica and Guns N' Roses, to commemorate the final bow of a music titan.
The father-daughter bond was famously highlighted during their time on the MTV reality show, The Osbournes, and recently through their family podcast featuring Sharon and Jack. In a heartfelt Instagram tribute, Kelly shared lyrics from their rendition of Black Sabbath's "Changes," which became a chart-topping hit in 2003, stating, "I feel unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had," accompanied by a broken heart emoji.
Ozzy Osbourne's family released a statement expressing their profound sorrow over the loss, confirming he passed surrounded by love. While no cause of death was specified, the rock star had long struggled with health issues, including a Parkinson's diagnosis in 2019. The music world remembers Ozzy Osbourne, the pioneer of heavy metal, with love and tributes pouring in, celebrating a remarkable life filled with unforgettable moments.
