Stars' rarely-seen daughter now looks very different

Stars' rarely-seen daughter now looks very different

News.com.au10-06-2025
Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne's rarely seen eldest child, Aimee Osbourne, was spotted out in the UK on Sunday.
Aimee, 41, was photographed exiting a Manchester hotel alongside Brigitte Calls Me Baby frontman Wes Leavins, who is currently on tour in the country.
She wore a chic black leather jacket and jeans while rolling her luggage and clutching a cell phone.
She accessorised with black boots and layered necklaces, and styled her long brown hair down with bangs.
Aimee, now a member of synth pop band ARO, famously moved out of her family's home at the age of 16 over their decision to star in MTV's hit reality series The Osbournes, which premiered in 2002.
Her younger siblings, Jack, now 39, and Kelly, now 40, remained and rose to fame on the chaotic and beloved show alongside Ozzy and Sharon.
Aimee defended her decision not to star in the series in 2008.
'I'm not some weirdo depressed daughter that's afraid of the world and locks herself in her room all day. I just didn't choose to do the show,' she explained in an interview, per the Independent.
'I want to be a singer, and I felt if I'd stayed with the Osbournes and done the whole thing I would have been typecast right away. [Sharon] was hurt, and we definitely had a tough time with disagreements. I'm more reserved and my private life is very important.'
Aimee elaborated on prioritising her privacy in a 2020 radio interview.
'For me, I had grown up around having a pretty well-known dad anyway, and … I always really valued my privacy within that family,' she told New York's Q1043 radio at the time, per People.
'And for me personally, and for who I am, you know, as far as morally and also just to give myself a chance to actually develop into a human being as opposed to just being remembered for being a teenager, it didn't really line up with what I saw my future as.'
In 2018, Sharon, now 72, admitted she deeply regretted allowing Aimee to move out.
'She couldn't live in our house because we were filming, and it drove her insane,' the mother of three said on The Talk.
'She felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera,' Sharon added. 'She hated the idea. It was appalling to her. And so she left at 16, and I regret every day that she did.'
Aimee appeared in MTV's 2003 musical Wuthering Heights, but mostly retreated into a life of privacy as the family became household names.
She was previously spotted stepping out with her mother in LA last year.
Her sister, Kelly, however, has said they 'don't talk.'
'We're just really different,' Kelly told Dax Shepard on a 2021 episode of the Armchair Expert podcast.
'She doesn't understand me, and I don't understand her.'

Kelly Osbourne hails dad Ozzy Osbourne as her 'best friend'

Kelly Osbourne has lost her "best friend" following the death of her dad Ozzy Osbourne. The 40-year-old star has taken to social media to share her thoughts following Ozzy's passing on Tuesday (22.07.25), aged 76. Kelly - who released a cover of the Black Sabbath song Changes with her dad back in 2003 - wrote on Instagram: "I feel unhappy I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had. (sic)" Ozzy performed his last-ever concert at Villa Park in Birmingham earlier this month, and Kelly actually got engaged backstage to Sid Wilson, from the band Slipknot, at the star-studded event. The Back to the Beginning concert also featured appearances from the likes of Metallica, Yungblud and Guns N' Roses. Ozzy's death was announced by his family earlier this week. They said in a statement: "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. He was with his family and surrounded by love." The news prompted an outpouring of tributes from some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Ozzy's Black Sabbath bandmate Tony Iommi. He told BBC Radio 4's Today: "He loved what he did, he loved music, he loved playing together, and I'm so glad we had the opportunity of getting together again to do the [farewell] show. "It was brilliant being with all the guys again, and the atmosphere, and it was brilliant for Ozzy because he really wanted to do that, he felt at home there and it was good for all of us." Kiss frontman Gene Simmons also paid a glowing tribute to the late star, describing Ozzy as a "unique, loveable person". Gene, 75, told the BBC: "I know that, right now, millions of fans around the world are crying and shocked, and my heart goes out to Sharon and the family and the fans. "There were no airs about him - he's met kings queens, political leaders, I think it's fair to say there was never an Ozzy Osbourne before Ozzy, and there will be another Ozzy. He was a unique, loveable person."

Ozzy Osbourne death: Kelly Osbourne shares heartbreaking post after father's passing, saying ‘I am so sad'

Kelly Osbourne, daughter of Black Sabbath frontman and the godfather of heavy metal, Ozzy Osbourne, has shared an update on the emotional toll of losing her dad. The beloved singer passed away, surrounded by family, on Tuesday, aged 76, with his contribution to music and pop culture celebrated by the world. Making her first solo statement since Ozzy's death, Kelly said she was sad and unhappy. 'I feel unhappy,' Kelly wrote on Instagram, sharing an update with her 3.4 million followers. 'I am so sad. 'I lost the best friend I ever had.' Kelly finished her Instagram story update with a broken-heart emoji. Her statement comes after the family shared a joint statement on Tuesday, which confirmed the music legend's death. '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 statement from Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis read. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love. 'We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.' Born John Michael 'Ozzy' Osbourne, the heavy-metal and reality TV star had a decades-long career in the spotlight. As frontman of Black Sabbath, he was at the forefront of the heavy metal scene - a deeper, darker offshoot of hard rock. His theatrical stage presence, including once biting off the head of a bat, and styling himself as the Prince of Darkness marked him out as a controversial figure. Later, he would reveal himself to be a doddering and sweet father on the reality TV show The Osbournes. He had been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019. Osbourne was twice inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame - once with Sabbath in 2006 and again in 2024 as a solo artist. The original Sabbath line-up reunited for the first time in 20 years in July 2025 in the United Kingdom for what Osborne said would be his final concert. 'Let the madness begin!' he told 42,000 fans before giving a performance that will go down in the music history books. - with Reuters, AAP
