Fans voice concern for Kelly Osbourne over unrecognisable new appearance
She’s had a “horrific” few months - now this star’s fans are begging her to take care of herself after her worrying appearance in a new video.
Fans are voicing their concerns for Kelly Osbourne after the star appeared drawn and gaunt at an event honouring her late father in his hometown of Birmingham.
Kelly returned to the British city this week to honour Ozzy’s birthday and accept the Lord Mayor’s Award on his behalf, on what would have been his 77th birthday.
Black Sabbath rocker Ozzy died at his home in the UK in July.
A video showing Kelly, 41, accepting the posthumous honour on her father’s behalf has circulated on social media, where many in the comments section have expressed their worry for the “unrecognisable” star.

“That is NOT Kelly Osbourne,” said another.
“I pray for Kelly, man … she’s going through it.”
“Heartbreak can kill you,” another fan remarked, saying they hoped Kelly was looking after herself as she processed her father’s death
Others mentioned how much Kelly looked like her late father.
Osbourne also sat down for a pre-recorded TV interview to discuss accepting her father’s award, and broke down in tears as she spoke about the months since his passing.

“It actually has been horrific,” she said.
“I’ve never ever felt anything like grief. I never realised that you could love someone so much.”
But she said he would’ve been honoured to receive such a prestigious award from his hometown.
“The fact that he has been recognised in such a way means so much to us because he loved this city, he loved Birmingham, he was a true Brummie through and through, and to be recognised in this way, it’s incredible,” she said.
“He worked so hard to do what he wanted to do most and that was perform one more time and then he was ready to go. He made a mark on this planet that will never be erased.”
In the interview, which aired on BBC television in the UK, Kelly also said she had been moved by the outpouring of grief in the streets of Birmingham since her father’s death.
“I’ll never forget it, as long as I live. The feeling of love that we felt for my father on the day of the procession, it still blows my mind,” she said.
“Everybody that showed up, and every letter of condolence, the outpouring of love, has helped us so much because we’re not going through this alone.”
Ozzy’s death came just weeks after he performed at his final Black Sabbath show on July 5 in Birmingham.
While backstage at the emotional farewell concert, Kelly got engaged to her boyfriend Sid Wilson. The pair share son Sidney, who was born in 2022.
