Special meaning behind Kelly Osbourne's stunning custom engagement ring
Kelly Osbourne has got engaged to partner Sid Wilson after Ozzy Osbourne's final gig with Black Sabbath and her ring has a very special meaning personal to her.
On Saturday, Ozzy officially ended his Prince of Darkness reign as he appeared on stage for one final time. The rock icon, 76, joined his Black Sabbath bandmates at Villa Park, Birmingham in one of the most epic farewell shows in music history.
After the incredible show, the Osbourne family were treated to a beautiful surprise backstage as Kelly's longtime partner Sid got down on one knee and popped the question. Taking to Instagram to share the joyful news, Kelly, 40, posted the sweet video of Sid's proposal as he asked to spend the rest of his life with the former reality TV star.
Alongside the video, Kelly wrote: "Oh, and this happened yesterday." In the heartwarming clip, Sharon is heard saying: "We've got to be quiet, hold on," as she shushed the crew backstage at show. Kelly's now fiancé is then heard saying: "Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world.
However, Sid's romantic proposal was swiftly interrupted by a playful Ozzy who shouted: "F*** off! You're not marrying my daughter." Clearly familiar with Ozzy's banter, Sid laughs and continues asking Kelly the all-important question.
He continues: "Nothing would make me happier than spending the rest of my life with you. So, in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?". Kelly then turns around with a look of shock on her face before holding her hands up to her face and nodding 'yes'.
MailOnline has now revealed how the beautiful meaning behind the ring and how it paid tribute to his partner's late friend Joan Rivers who died in 2014 aged 81. Sid reportedly wanted the ring to nod to a nickname both he and the Joan had for Kelly.
He said: "So I have a nickname for Kelly, and it's "Honeybee" and coincidentally a friend of hers, Joan Rivers used to call her this. It was a nickname [Joan] had for her. I didn't know this, it's like an amazing coincidence, it's like whoa, like meant to be."
Kelly had landed the sweet nickname due to her always 'buzzing around' and 'spreading good energy' so wanted the ring to be inspired by bees and pollen. The ring's design features a unique beehive inspired structure making it all the more sentimental.
The MailOnline reports that it is a 18K yellow gold ring with both white and yellow diamonds, as well as citrine accents, and the centre piece is a stunning 2.5 carat round brilliant-cut diamond, symbolising the multifaceted nature of love.

Justin Bieber has four word message for wife Hailey after split rumours
Justin Bieber appears to have dismissed rumours about his marriage to Hailey Bieber with a simple message. The relationship between the 31-year-old singer and his 28-year-old wife has been subject to plenty of speculation and reports in recent weeks with rumours of a breakup. However, Justin looks to have shrugged off any suggestion of a split with a four-word post on Instagram. Justin shared a series of sunset snaps with his wife on Sunday as they relaxed on a balcony together. Although Hailey's face could only be partially be seen in the photos – one them just showed the back of her head – Justin was clear in the caption. He wrote: 'My forever n always.' Justin and Hailey first met in 2009 and started dating six years later, and the rekindled their one/off romance in 2018 following his split from Selena Gomez. The couple welcomed their first son Jack into the world last August. Fans have been speculating about Justin's wellbeing for months after some erratic behaviour on social media. At the beginning of the year, he unfollowed the Rhode Beauty founder on Instagram, but refollowed her the same morning and claimed: 'Someone went on my account and unfollowed my wide.' A couple of months later, Hailey unfollowed the Love Yourself hitmaker for a couple of days, which she insisted was 'a glitch'. There have been reports that she has has become 'really concerned' about his behaviour', while in April her husband shared a lengthy and rambling post about people being 'jealous' of their marriage. The following month, Justin left his fans baffled after he revealed a fight they once had to commemorate her first Vogue magazine cover. He wrote of how he once told her during a 'huge fight' that she would 'never be on the cover of Vogue'. 'Yikes, I know, so mean,' he reflected, adding: 'So baby u already know but forgive me for saying u wouldn't get a vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken. (sic)' He later deleted the post, while he has continued to leave fans confused by his social media activity. More Trending Last month, he suggested love shouldn't be conditional as he hit out at 'transactional relationships', while he later opened up and 'anger issues' and called himself 'broken' in an emotional statement. Hailey has since been seen without her wedding, ring, although days later she dismissed the rumours with a mirror selfie showing her ring on her hand.

‘Big' Sam Young and partner Grace Chen are opening a Chinese restaurant in Potts Point
If you're not following chef-owner-restaurateur-lobster-enthusiast 'Big' Sam Young on Instagram, what have you been doing? The co-owner of Castlecrag's luxe bistro S'more – known for its top-quality produce, bougie offerings and truffle-on-everything energy – posts non-stop pictures of delicious food and private dinners at multi-million-dollar homes. He's also prolific when it comes to being a hustler, which comes from his lived experience of moving to Australia from Hong Kong at 13 – only to have everything, including his passport and money, stolen days later. Being an immigrant and working hard has shaped his ethos. Now, he and partner Grace Chen are opening their second venue dedicated to that journey: a Chinese restaurant called Young's Palace, opening this August in the excellent former home of Raja and Teddy on Kellett Street in Potts Point. 'We've been sold this outdated image of immigrant-run restaurants as cheap, fast and scrappy. That was survival. But now, we want to tell a new story – one that honours hard work but also values quality, creativity and pride,' Sam says, who has also spent time in the kitchens of Queen Chow and Lotus. Young's Palace is also inspired by the couple's travels – particularly the Chinatowns they've explored in cities like Paris, Amsterdam, New York, Vancouver and Sydney. 'Grace and I always find ourselves hunting down a plate of fried rice or chow mein, no matter where we are in the world. Young's Palace is about recreating that joy – classic Chinese dishes that are simple, comforting and utterly craveable,' says Sam. Sam says don't expect laminated menus with a hundred-plus options, fluorescent lighting or any compromise on quality for convenience. And absolutely no modern Asian-fusion. What you can expect, however, are two menus: one with nostalgic crowd favourites – think sweet and sour pork, honey king prawns, General Tao's chicken and lemon chicken – and the 'Chairman's Menu', which is BSY to a T: luxe dishes like lobster, giant mud crab and claypot abalone rice crowned with truffles and caviar. 'There's no reason a bowl of noodles can't be treated with the same respect and price tag as a plate of pasta. We're not here to follow rules. We're here to create something we're proud of,' adds Sam. See you there later this year!
