Kelly Osbourne Slams Weight-Loss Critics Amid Grief Over Father Ozzy Osbourne’s Death

Kelly Osbourne is speaking out — and she is not holding back.

Still grieving the loss of her father, legendary rock icon Ozzy Osbourne, the 41-year-old TV personality and musician has blasted critics who have targeted her appearance, particularly her recent weight loss, calling the attacks “disgusting,” “cruel,” and deeply hurtful during an already devastating time.

“I’ve Had Enough of It”

In an emotional response shared with followers, Kelly expressed outrage over the scrutiny she has faced online, saying she is especially disturbed that many of the harsh comments appear to be coming from other women.

“It’s absolutely devastating that women can’t support other women,” she said. “They’d rather tear them down when their dad just died. It’s disgusting — and I’ve had enough of it.”

Kelly added that some of her loudest critics identify themselves as counselors and mothers, making the attacks feel even more painful and hypocritical.

Cruel Accusations and Body Shaming

While Kelly acknowledged that many fans have offered love and support, she revealed that her social media pages have been flooded with vicious remarks. Among them were accusations that she used weight-loss drugs such as Ozempic, which she has firmly denied, as well as comments claiming she looks far older than her actual age.

“Disgusting, horrible, mean, brutal comments,” Kelly said. “What do you expect me to look like right now? The fact that I’m getting out of bed and facing my life and trying should be more than enough.”

Public Appearance Sparked Renewed Scrutiny

The backlash intensified after Kelly appeared at a recent UK event, where fans noticed she looked significantly thinner compared to photos taken earlier this year. The appearance came just weeks after Ozzy’s passing, further fueling speculation and criticism about her health.

Sharon Osbourne Speaks Out

Kelly’s mother, Sharon Osbourne, publicly defended her daughter, revealing during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored that Kelly has struggled to eat since losing her father.

“She’s right,” Sharon said. “She’s not happy — she’s lost her daddy. She can’t eat properly right now.”

The comments underscored the emotional toll grief has taken on Kelly, countering claims that her weight loss is driven by vanity or trends.

A Deep Father-Daughter Bond

Kelly often referred to Ozzy as her best friend, and their close relationship was evident just weeks before his death. Fans witnessed a tender moment when Kelly became engaged to Slipknot musician Sid Wilson backstage at her father’s final Black Sabbath concert.

The emotional footage of Ozzy telling Kelly how much he loved her has since resurfaced, serving as a poignant reminder of their bond.

A History of Honesty About Health and Recovery

Over the years, Kelly has been open about her struggles with weight, addiction, and sobriety. She underwent gastric sleeve surgery in 2018, losing approximately 85 pounds, and has spoken candidly about how her physical transformation followed a much deeper emotional reckoning.

In a 2020 interview, Kelly revealed that her turning point came after hitting what she described as a spiritual low due to drinking — and reaching out to her brother, Jack Osbourne, for help.
