EXCLUSIVE Special meaning behind Kelly Osbourne's custom engagement ring revealed and it's sweet tribute to late friend Joan Rivers - after boyfriend Sid Wilson popped the question at her rockstar dad Ozzy's final gig
MailOnline can exclusively reveal how the Slipknot musician, 48, turned to luxury jeweller Mouawad to help him create the custom sparkler which also paid tribute to his partner's late friend Joan Rivers.
In a clip from Sid's first meeting with Mouawad boss Pascal Mouawad, he explained that he wanted the bauble to nod to a nickname both he and the comedian, who died in 2014 aged 81, had for Kelly, 40.
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'.
He explained how Kelly, who co-hosted E! Fashion Police with the late Joan, had landed the moniker due to her always 'buzzing around' and 'spreading good energy' so wanted the ring to be inspired by bees and pollen.
Drawing from this affectionate nickname, the ring's design features a unique beehive inspired structure, seamlessly marrying sentiment with elegance.
The result is a dazzling 18K yellow gold ring adorned with both white and yellow diamonds, as well as citrine accents.
If that wasn't enough the centre piece is a stunning 2.5 carat round brilliant-cut diamond, symbolising the enduring and multifaceted nature of love.
Later in the clip Sid was left stunned when he saw the ring for the first time and his idea come to life.
'It's like blinding! it sparklers!' he exclaimed, 'She's just going to live it, it's beautiful' before choking back tears as he described the gorgeous ring as 'more than prefect'.
Following Joan's death Kelly got a bumble bee tattoo in tribute to her late pal and the nickname she had given her.
Taking to Instagram she wrote 'In honor of you @joanrivers..."If you looked at aerodynamics, at science, the bumble bee should not be able to fly. Physically, it was just not anatomically equipped to soar.
'Yet it did, defying gravity, defying logic. The bee was a creature that defied and beat the odds, a miracle." Thank you for being my Miracle @joanrivers.'

Ozzy was performing his farewell show with Black Sabbath at Villa Park, with his whole family in attendance.
And in a surprise backstage moment, Kelly's long-term boyfriend, Slipknot star Sid with whom she shares son Sidney, decided it was the perfect time to propose.
Kelly shared video of the proposal, joking: 'Oh and this happened yesterday!'. The clip opened with Kelly's mum Sharon appearing to guess what was happening as she shouted at the crowded room: 'You've got to be quiet!'
Sid was then seen standing in front of Ozzy and Sharon, preparing to get down on one knee before his future father-in-law cheekily interrupted 'f**k off you're not marrying my daughter are you?'
Sid laughed as he continued: 'Kelly you know I love you more than anything. Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you.'
'So in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly will you marry me?' A delighted Ozzy asked Sid for a look at the ring as Sharon applauded, before Kelly jumped into her new fiance's arms.
Kelly's celeb pals rushed to congratulate the star, with Rylan commenting on her Instagram post: 'OMG KEL!!! Congraaatttsssss'
Jonathan Cheban added: 'AMAZING. LOVE YOU MOCHIE!!! Congrats!!!!'
Hours earlier, Kelly had shared a gushing post reflecting on her 'magical' evening at Ozzy's final show.
Posting a gallery of snaps from the evening, she penned the caption: 'To say that yesterday was magic was an understatement!

'In front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly will you marry me?' Sid asked Kelly, before Kelly jumped into her new fiance's arms
'I can't even write this without tears streaming down my face! Thank you to everyone who came to support my dad.
'Thank you to the fans who without we are nothing! My dad got his moment in the sun! He was able to say thank you and good bye in the most beautiful way!'.
Speaking in October Kell said that Sid 'really wants to get married,' but that is wasn't important to her.
The couple began dating in 2022 and welcomed their son Sidney in November 2023.
Although she isn't keen on getting married, Kelly confirmed last year that she would exchange vows with Sid because it's important to him.
'I found my guy. We don't need the certificate. But I know Sid really wants to get married, so we will get married. It's not as important to me,' she told Us Weekly.
'I've worn so many beautiful dresses and had so many moments that have been just about me, so that whole idea of a big day isn't as important to me ...
'Never in a million f****** years did I think I'd end up with a rock star partner, but I did.'
Kelly went on to reveal she also hopes the couple will be able to expand their family in the future, saying: 'I definitely want more babies!'

Ben Affleck emerges after ex Jennifer Lopez released her heartbreak song Wreckage of You about their divorce
Just a few days after his ex Jennifer Lopez dropped a new song about their tumultuous relationship, Ben Affleck was spotted out for the first time. Lopez debuted a new song called Wreckage of You during an exclusive listening party for 30 lucky fans in Los Angeles last week. The 55-year-old singer played six new tracks - five upbeat tracks dubbed Up All Night, Regular, Free, Save Me Tonight and Birthday - and a ballad dubbed Wreckage of You, which reports reveal the latter was about the aftermath of her second marriage to Affleck. While Affleck has yet to publicly respond in regards to the new song, he was spotted having dinner with a friend at the West Hollywood hotspot Steak 48 on Monday. The actor was spotted with a friend at the establishment, where they dined for over two hours. He was seen wearing a white button-up dress shirt, dark blue jeans and brown boots for the dinner outing, while carrying a jacket. During the exclusive fan event last week, Lopez revealed that she co-wrote and recorded the song two weeks ago, via US Weekly. One fan in attendance - Edgardo Luis Rivera - revealed, 'She said she was lying in bed after a long day of tour rehearsals when the idea of the song came to her.' 'She mentioned how last year was a very difficult time for her both personally and professionally. She had to cancel her tour and really focus on herself,' the fan added. 'Fast-forward to one year later, and she feels better and stronger than ever, so she wanted to write a song about coming out of a bad situation much stronger,' he said. He said that she, 'kept thinking of the word "wreck" because it means destruction, but she wasn't destroyed,' adding one of the songs lyrics are, 'I'm stronger after the wreckage of you.' Another unnamed fan in attendance added Wreckage of You was a, 'very emotional, empowering song about walking away from a relationship and coming out a stronger person.' The exes are still trying to sell their $60 million marital home that they bought in May 2023, nearly a year after tying the knot for a second time. They separated for a second time in April 2024, with Lopez filing for divorce in August 2024. The exes are still trying to sell their $60 million marital home that they bought in May 2023, nearly a year after tying the knot for a second time. While the divorce was finalized this February, they have still failed to sell the home, which they initially listed for $68 million in July 2024. They dropped the price to their break-even point at $60 million after failing to find a buyer, but the home was recently taken off the market entirely. An i nsider exclusively told the Daily Mail, 'Ben and JLo slashed the price on their Beverly Hills mansion for $8 million less than they paid for it, but this is nothing to Ben.' 'He really just wants this to be sold so that he can cut the final cord that keeps him and Jennifer intertwined,' it was added.
