Kelly Osbourne has paid a deeply emotional tribute to her late father, Ozzy Osbourne, sharing one of the final text messages he sent her before his death in July 2025. The 41-year-old television personality took to Instagram on Sunday to honour the Black Sabbath frontman, who died at the age of 76.
In a series of throwback photographs, Kelly wrote a moving message about grief and love. 'Dad, I still find myself looking for you in ordinary moments, the advice I need, the joke I want to tell, the victory I wish you could see,' she said. 'The ache of missing you is the price of loving you, and I would pay it forever rather than have never been your child at all!'
Kelly also shared a screenshot of a text from Ozzy in which he spoke lovingly about her son Sidney, whom she welcomed in 2022 with Slipknot star Sid Wilson. 'Ya know what, whenever I'm feeling sick and miserable all I have to do is watch the video you sent of little Sid in the bath and it make me so happy that it all just go away,' Ozzy wrote.
Ozzy's death was announced by his family in a statement that read: 'It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.' The music legend had been open about his battle with Parkinson's disease after revealing his diagnosis in 2020.
He leaves behind six children: Kelly, Aimee and Jack Osbourne with wife Sharon, whom he married in 1982, as well as Elliot Kingsley, Jessica Osbourne and Louis Osbourne from his first marriage to Thelma Riley.
