Jack Osbourne says he ‘doesn't have a great relationship' with older sister Aimee

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne's eldest daughter Aimee is known to lead a more private life and is not very close with her two siblings, Jack and Kelly. ‌ Jack Osbourne has candidly opened up about his relationship with his rarely seen older sister Aimee following their dad Ozzy Osbourne's death. The Prince of Darkness, who was a father-of-six, passed away at 76-years-old on July 22. ‌ A funeral cortege took place in his home city of Birmingham on July 30 before the rock icon was privately laid to rest in Buckinghamshire with Sir Elton John, Marilyn Manson and Youngblud all in attendance. The siblings reunited alongside their mother and Ozzy's beloved wife Sharon Osbourne as the family were snapped looking visibly emotional while they said their final goodbye to the Black Sabbath star. ‌ Aimee, 41, is the oldest Osbourne child but is the least known, after turning down the chance to star in the family's iconic reality show The Osbournes alongside her parents and two siblings. Instead Aimee chose to move out of their family home at just 16-years-old and pursue a music career instead. Jack, 39, who is just two years younger than Aimee, recently spoke about their relationship on the Disrespectfully podcast. ‌ He admitted that he and his older sister are 'not close at all'. ‌ Talking about her decision not to appear in their MTV show, which aired from 2002 until 2005, he said: "Back then she really wanted to be a musician and the kind of musician she wanted to be was like a Fiona Apple, Mazzy Star, like this kind of obscure, mysterious, moody… "And she deemed doing a show on MTV as low-hanging fruit. She was like, 'I'm not going to be seen riding coat-tails,' kind of thing, that's how she perceived it. "Once the show was hugely successful, I think she was kind of like, 'Well I can't now come on because I don't want to be seen even more so as jumping on the bandwagon'. And she dug her heels in and wanted to be relatively private and obscure." ‌ He went on to reiterate that they 'don't have a great relationship' as he opened up on the differences in their careers. He continued: "I've never asked her outright, 'Do you regret it'' I think there must be a level of like, 'Hey, my life would have probably been different than what it is if I'd done that', so I don't know, I think I would feel like I would have regretted it." ‌ Meanwhile Kelly, 40, previously said that she and Aimee also 'don't tall' after having a strained relationship over the years. During an interview on the Armchair Expert podcast in 2021, she said: "We're just really different. She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her". A year before, Aimee told New York's Q1043 Out of the Box how important privacy was for her after growing up with a famous father. ‌ She said: "For me, I had grown up around having a pretty well-known dad anyway, and … I always really valued my privacy within that family. "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." ‌ She continued: "It definitely worked great for the rest of my family, but for me, and who I am, I just knew it was never something that I would have been able to consider realistically." Sharon, 72, has previously opened up about her eldest child's decision to move out when she was just 16, which she said she now understands but admits it 'broke her heart'.

She explained on The Talk: "I know that my eldest girl, Aimee, left home at 16 and she couldn't live in our house because we were filming and it drove her insane. "She felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera. She hated the idea — it was appalling to her. And so she left at 16 and I regret every day that she did." "She was happy, but it broke my heart when she moved."

Ozzy Osbourne 'tried to trademark Prince of Darkness nickname days before he died'

Ozzy Osbourne died at the age of 76 last month shortly after his farewell gig with his band Black Sabbath in his hometown of Birmingham Ozzy Osbourne reportedly tried to trademark his 'Prince of Darkness' nickname just days before he died at the age of 76. The Black Sabbath frontman passed away shortly after his farewell gig with the band in his hometown of Birmingham last month. ‌ In perhaps what was an attempt to provide for his family, including wife Sharon, 72, after he was gone, the heavy metal legend - who spawned huge hits like Paranoid and War Pigs - is said to have applied for the trademark to sell clothes, games and accessories. ‌ It's believed the late frontman filed requests in both the UK and the US. An application thought to have been sent to the United States Patent and Trademark Office asks for "entertainment services, namely providing non-downloadable pre-recorded music via a website." ‌ Permission has yet to be granted in America, though it's thought Ozzy has already had the 'Prince of Darkness' trademark approved in the UK, according to The Sun. Though Ozzy is gone devastating fans around the world, he could appear on stage again in the future, as Black Sabbath trademarked their name in virtual reality - which means they could return as holograms. ‌ It follows in the footsteps of bands like ABBA, who have already used avatars for their London show, Voyage, which has been running since 2022 and features younger versions of themselves. Black Sabbath filed similar documents 20 years ago and the band could do the same at some point should they want to. Papers trademark use of 'production and presentation of animation and other special effects'. A number of other artists have taken similar action. Ozzy was laid to rest in Buckinghamshire at a private service attended by his close family and friends on Thursday. Among music royalty attending the funeral were Elton John, Metallica's James Hetfield, Marilyn Manson, punk singer Yungblud, Rob Zombie, and Ozzy's guitarist Zakk Wylde. ‌ In keeping with the rockstar's wishes, he was buried in the grounds of his sprawling family home where he shared many happy memories with wife Sharon, and where he spent his final weeks. Thousands also lined the streets of Birmingham, where he made one final trip through his home city as his hearse travelled from the Aston Villa football ground through the city centre. Though a cause of death hasn't been given, the singer had suffered ill health in recent years and been been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019. A statement from his family said: "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. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time." ‌ Paying tribute to her famous dad, middle daughter Kelly, took to social media to thanks fans for their support. She said: "I've sat down to write this a hundred times and still don't know if the words will ever feel like enough... but from the bottom of my heart, thank you. "The love, support, and beautiful messages I've received from so many of you have truly helped carry me through the hardest moment of my life. Every kind word, every shared memory, every bit of compassion has meant more than I can ever explain. "Grief is a strange thing - it sneaks up on you in waves - I will not be ok for a while - but knowing my family are not alone in our pain makes a difference. I'm holding on tight to the love, the light, and the legacy left behind. Thank you for being there. I love you all so much."

TV fans baffled as sizzling period drama plays completely in Spanish

Fans of The Gilded Age were left completely baffled after the latest episode aired entirely in Spanish. The Gilded Age is an American period drama from Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes and usually airs in English on HBO. However, due to a technical difficulty, fans were treated to a Spanish-dubbed version of the show, which left many struggling to understand what on earth was going on. '@hbomax The Gilded Age is currently only playing in Spanish on my app and I cannot follow what is happening to Señora Russell. Help! Ayuda!' said kpfallon on X. 'Same here, ended up watching it with English subtitles, but it wouldn't let me switch it to English language audio. Kind of like watching a Tele Novella. Ay, caramba!'williamriccijr added. 'Is The Gilded Age in Spanish for everyone or am I having a stroke,' asked NKinRealLife. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Fans worked out that the only way to rectify the issue was to select Spanish for the audio – which, because of the switch-up, would play the audio in English. 'GildedAge tonight defaults to Spanish – go in and choose Spanish and it will play in English,' said 5horizns, a tip that was echoed by a lot of fans. Although many worked out this hack, many didn't and just resigned themselves to watch the entire episode in a language they didn't understand. 'Exactly! Me too – just tweeted the same. However: I watched the damn thing in Spanish,' said sharonwaxman. The series stars Carrie Coon, Morgan Spector, Cynthia Nixon, and Christine Baranski and is set around the boom years of the 1880s in New York City. Carrie stars as one of the main characters, Bertha Russell, and had a hilarious reaction to the Spanish mix-up. '¿A todos les gustó mi acento? GildedAgeHBO #BerthaRussell☺️,' said Carrie on X. This translates to: 'Did everyone like my accent?' As she poked fun at the error. Fans have praised the most recent third season, which kicked off in mid-June and is available for UK viewers on Sky. More Trending The synopsis for the third season reads: 'Bertha sets her sights on a prize that would elevate the family to unimaginable heights while George risks everything on a gambit that could revolutionise the railroad industry — if it doesn't ruin him first.t 'Across the street, the Brook household is thrown into chaos as Agnes refuses to accept Ada's new position as lady of the house. As all of New York hastens toward the future, their ambition may come at the cost of what they truly hold dear.' View More » The Gilded Age season three is available to watch on Sky. Episodes will release every Monday in the UK. Seasons one and two are available to stream in full. Got a story?
