Kelly Osbourne Finds Joy in Falconry Amidst Grief for Ozzy
KELLY OSBOURNE FIGHTS BACK TEARS AS SHE REVEALS SHE'S FOUND HER SMILE AGAIN AFTER DAD OZZY'S TRAGIC PASSING
In a heart-wrenching yet uplifting turn of events, Kelly Osbourne has shared a series of tear-jerking videos on Instagram that show her beaming with joy as she feeds falcons and owls - proving that even in the darkest of times, there's always hope for happiness to resurface. The 40-year-old TV personality has been left reeling after the passing of her beloved dad Ozzy, the Prince of Darkness, just two months ago.
Ozzy, who sadly left us on July 22 at the age of 76 after a long battle with Parkinson's, was Kelly's rock - both literally and figuratively. The Black Sabbath rocker made it no secret that Kelly was his favorite child, calling her "his baby" in an interview just a few years ago. In fact, Ozzy even went as far to say that Kelly, Jack, and Aimee all knew about their special bond, joking that he and Kelly were like "two peas in a pod!"
The close father-daughter duo's connection was palpable on screen when they released the hit duet "Changes" in 2003, which reached the top of the UK singles chart. But even after Ozzy's passing, their legacy lived on - with "Changes" returning to the top 10 just days after his death.
Kelly's Instagram update on Monday was a poignant reminder that grief is a journey, and it's okay to take your time to heal. The TV personality shared her newfound passion for falconry, revealing that she's found solace in caring for these majestic birds of prey. Alongside a heartwarming photo with an owl perched on her arm, Kelly penned: "In all my sadness and grief, I have found something that truly makes me happy!"
It seems Kelly has finally started to find her smile again - just hours after paying tribute to her dad at the MTV VMAs over the weekend. The biggest names in music gathered at the UBS Arena in Elmont, New York, for a special tribute to Ozzy's legacy.
In a touching video message, Ozzy's son Jack and his children shared their heartfelt thoughts about their beloved papa. Jack said: "I know for sure it would make him incredibly happy to see these great musicians carry on his legacy and help inspire the next generation of rockers." The star's grandchildren added: "In the words of our papa, 'Let's go crazy!'"
The tribute was a truly unforgettable moment, with Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Yungblud, Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, Black Sabbath keyboardist Adam Wakeman, and the band joining forces to perform some of Ozzy's most iconic hits - including "Crazy Train" and "Mama, I'm Coming Home."
Yungblud, who had a very special bond with Ozzy after meeting him in 2022, gave a heartfelt reading at his funeral. The young musician also performed at the metal icon's farewell concert at Birmingham's Villa Park in June amid his declining health.
As for Kelly, it seems she's been inspired by her father's spirit - and is now spreading joy through her newfound love of falconry. With her Instagram followers going wild over the heartwarming videos, it's clear that Kelly has found a new purpose in life - one that's sure to make Ozzy proud.
As for Yungblud's tribute to Ozzy at the MTV VMAs, it was truly a memorable moment - with the performers yelling "Ozzy forever, man!" as the music came to an end. The young musician has proven time and time again that he's not just a talented artist, but also a kind and caring friend to those who need him.
So here's to Kelly Osbourne, Yungblud, and all the loved ones of Ozzy - may their love and memories of this incredible rockstar continue to inspire us for years to come.
