Kelly Osbourne has delivered her most searing message yet to social-media critics, blasting the “grown women” who have been mocking her weight and appearance while she is still reeling from the loss of her father, Ozzy Osbourne.
In a fierce Instagram video, the 41-year-old admitted she has been inundated with kind messages from supporters since Ozzy’s death five months ago. But alongside that compassion, she has also been hit with what she described as “disgusting, horrible, mean, brutal” comments—particularly those questioning whether she is unwell.
Kelly said she finally snapped after seeing users speculate about her body, explaining that yes, she is ill, because she is grieving. “People ask if I look sick. I am sick right now. My life has flipped upside down. The fact that I’m getting out of bed and trying should be enough,” she said, adding that anyone expecting her to look “fine” clearly doesn’t understand grief.
Ozzy, who died at 76 after years of declining health, had battled Parkinson’s and coronary artery disease and only just made it through his emotional farewell performance in Birmingham weeks before his death. Kelly said the loss has left her and her siblings devastated.
She continued her message with a blistering takedown: “To everyone leaving these sick comments, you need to take a hard look at yourself. These things you’re saying about me are how you feel about yourself. All you’ve achieved is being a bully.”
But what stunned her most, she said, was discovering that many of the cruelest remarks came from adult women—some claiming to be mothers, counsellors or people with their own weight struggles. “It’s devastating women can’t support other women. They’d rather tear them down when their dad’s just died,” she said, ending the clip with a furious “go f*** yourself.”
Her trolling was also discussed on Piers Morgan Uncensored, where Sharon Osbourne appeared for her first major interview since Ozzy’s death. Watching Kelly’s video, Sharon backed her daughter completely: “She’s right. She can’t eat right now. She’s lost her daddy.”
Sharon praised all three of her children for helping her survive the unimaginable heartbreak, sharing that grief has become “an ache you wake up with,” something she must learn to live alongside. “I would have just gone with Ozzy,” she admitted, “but the kids have been magnificent.”
