Kelly Osbourne issued a heartbreaking message from her home in Indianola, Iowa, on Friday, talking about her late father, Ozzy Osbourne.

The Prince of Darkness tragically died of heart failure in July last year, just two weeks after performing a farewell concert with his Black Sabbath bandmates at Villa Park stadium in Birmingham.

Taking to her Instagram account, doting mother Kelly, the youngest of Ozzy's children, unveiled a moving tribute to her late father, which saw the words: "Ozzy [expletive] Osbourne," in large letters installed in her sprawling land.

Alongside the video, she penned: "I still reach for you in ordinary moments, Dad, in quiet rooms, in tired evenings, in every piece of life that should have included you."

Remembering Ozzy

As Kelly has been grieving the loss of her father, she revealed that she tried to buy back her iconic Mediterranean-style family home featured on the MTV series, The Osbournes. 

The family first moved into the six-bedroom, nine-bathroom gated home in March 2002 and lived there until 2007, when the property was sold to pop star Christina Aguilera, who stayed in the home for four years.

During a chat with Omaze for their Homes That Made Me series, Kelly reflected on her time in the property and shared details about why they wanted it back, having sold it over almost 20 years ago. 

She said in a video clip that was shared on her Instagram: "This was the house we filmed The Osbournes in. We've asked about ten times if we can buy it back, and they keep saying no, even though they're never even there, the people who currently own it. But it was a great house." 

She added elsewhere: "That house will always be one of the best places we ever lived, because that house changed my life." 

More heartbreak

Following the loss of her father, in March, Kelly parted ways with the father of her child, one-year-old Sidney, three.

Kelly was engaged to Slipknot rocker Sid Wilson. Kelly and Sid welcomed their son Sidney, in November 2022, and got engaged two years later when he proposed to her backstage at the Back to the Beginning concert in July 2025. Just weeks later, Ozzy passed away from a heart attack at age 76.
