He met fiancee
Born on October 27 1984, Kelly is the older sibling out of her and Jack.
After The Osbournes ended in 2005, she crafted a career as a singer-songwriter, TV star and author, and has built an estimated net worth of $15m (£11m).
She had a hit single in 2002 with a cover of Papa Don't Preach, and had a UK No1 the following year when she released Changes with her father.
Kelly is also known for her TV work which includes Australia's Got Talent, Project Runway Junior, Fashion Police, and Dancing With The Stars.
Kelly and Sid welcomed a baby boy, Sidney, together in late 2022.
The mum-of-tone posted on Instagram: "After 23 years of friendship I can't believe where we have ended up!
"You are my best friend, my soulmate and I am so deeply in love with you Sidney George Wilson."
Then, earlier this month, Kelly revealed she is now engaged to Sid.
She shared a video of the moment Sid popped the question backstage at her father's final ever Black Sabbath gig.
Following the late Ozzy's last ever performance on stage ahead of his retirement, he could be seen unwinding with his family and friends backstage.
But Sid, 48, had an even bigger surprise for Kelly, 40, when he dropped to one knee and asked her to marry him.
Stood in front of Sharon and Ozzy, they appeared to have an idea of what was to come as the former X Factor judge could be heard saying to everyone in the room: "You've got to be quiet!"
Sid then took the hand of Kelly, who was dressed down in some comfy leopard print trousers and a simple black hoodie.
He said to the TV personality: "Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world!"
Ozzy then appeared to give the game away as he jokingly quipped with his signature potty mouth: "F*** off, you are not marrying my daughter!"
The group laughed before Sid continued as he said: "I want to spend the rest of my life with you - and ask in front of all of our family and friends, Kelly, will you marry me?"
Kelly turned her head as she looked on open-mouthed before Sid began to stand up and place the ring onto her finger.
Sharon and Ozzy could be seen beaming as the onlookers clapped and cheered for the happy moment.
Uploading the video to her Instagram page, Kelly added the caption: "Oh and this happened yesterday!"
Sid proposed to Kelly with a bespoke custom-designed ring from Los Angeles based jewellers, Mouawad.
He designed the ring with the team through various one-on-one meetings in order to ensure it was right.
Sid chose to curate a dazzling 18K yellow gold ring adorned with both white and yellow diamonds, as well as citrine accents.
The centerpiece is a stunning 2.5 carat round brilliant-cut diamond with the ring being nicknamed the Honeybee - Kelly's personal nickname.
Her fans and celebrity pals were quick to respond with their congratulations and well-wishes to the pair.
Rylan said to the star: "OMG KEL!!! Congraaatttsssss"
Jonathan Cheban added: "AMAZING. LOVE YOU MOCHIE!!! Congrats!!!!"
As one of Kelly's adoring fans wrote: "Congratulations, I am crying and this is Awesome."
The engagement came backstage as Ozzy played his final ever show with Black Sabbath at Villa Park.
Ozzy, 76, vowed it would be his final performance due to his deteriorating health. He went public with his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2020.
His family sadly announced his passing on Tuesday, July 22.
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.
"Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis."
