How Many Children Does Ozzy Osbourne Have? Meet the Late Rocker's Kids With Sharon and Thelma Riley
The Black Sabbath singer died at 76 years old on July 22, 2025, his family confirmed 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,' the statement read. 'He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.'
Ozzy was survived by his wife, Sharon Osbourne, and their three children, Aimee, Kelly and Jack, as well as ex-wife Thelma Riley and their three kids, Elliot, Jessica and Louis.

Below, Us Weekly shares everything to know about Ozzy's surviving children:
Elliot Kingsley
Ozzy met Riley in 1971 while she was working at a nightclub called Rum Runner in Birmingham, England. She had a 5-year-old son named Elliot at the time, whom Ozzy went on to adopt after he and Riley tied the knot later that year. The identity of Elliot's biological father has not been publicly revealed.
While not much is known about Elliot, he is reportedly an actor and has appeared in stage performances of Romeo and Juliet and Fiddler on the Roof.
Jessica Osbourne
After Ozzy married Riley, the pair welcomed daughter Jessica in 1972.
Today, Jessica leads a mostly private life in England. Though she never appeared on camera on her father and his second wife's MTV show The Osbournes, Jessica did call Ozzy in season 2 to share that he was a grandfather for the first time. She had given birth to a daughter named Isabella. Later, Jessica welcomed kids Harry and Kitty.

Louis Osbourne
In addition to Jessica, Ozzy and Riley shared son Louis, who was born in 1975. Like his sister, Louis has mostly remained out of the spotlight. However, he was present for Ozzy's final Black Sabbath concert in Birmingham, England, on July 5, 2025.
"I was sobbing at times. It was everything we wanted it to be and more," he wrote on Facebook after the show, according to BBC. "I had been anxious for months about this as I've been worried about my dad's ability to perform with his Parkinson's disease."
Louis continued, "I just wanted it to be a dignified send off for him. But as soon as he started singing we knew he was gonna nail it."
Louis met wife Louise in 2002, and the pair tied the knot in Ireland later that year. They now live in Birmingham, where Louis works as a label owner, DJ and producer. The couple shares two kids, Elijah and Maia.
Aimee Osbourne
After Ozzy and Riley divorced in 1982, he tied the knot with Sharon. The couple then welcomed daughter Aimee in London in September 1983. Aimee lived with her parents in California until she was 16 years old, moving out after they began filming The Osbournes with her siblings Kelly and Jack.
"I had grown up around having a pretty well-known dad anyway, and ... I always really valued my privacy within that family," she said on New York's Q104.3 radio station. "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."
Despite not agreeing with her family's reality TV path, Aimee followed in her dad's footsteps with her music career. She became the lead singer of the band ARO in 2015, with the band's first single, "Raining Gold," inspired by her experience as the daughter of a famous rockstar.
"I wanted the song to touch on how overwhelming and isolating it feels to be constantly misunderstood and the importance of choosing to break free from that and just believing in yourself," Aimee told Rolling Stone. "It's so valuable to always try and put yourself in someone else's shoes. I hope this song reminds people of that."
Kelly Osbourne
Ozzy and Sharon welcomed daughter Kelly in London in October 1984.

While appearing on The Osbournes from 2002 to 2005, Kelly began pursuing a music career. She released her debut album, Shut Up!, in 2002, followed by Sleep in Nothing in 2005. However, she ultimately followed in Sharon's footsteps by becoming a TV host and judge on Project Runway, Project Catwalk and Fashion Police. Kelly also competed on Dancing With the Stars in 2009 and finished in third place.
Kelly began dating Slipknot's Sid Wilson in 2022. The pair welcomed son Sidney later that year. They also got engaged backstage at Ozzy's final Black Sabbath concert.
"F*** off, you're not marrying my daughter," Ozzy jokingly told Wilson, as seen in a video shared via Kelly's Instagram. However, Wilson told her, '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?'
Jack Osbourne
Sharon and Ozzy welcomed son Jack in November 1985 in London. The family lived in the U.K. until Jack was 6 years old, at which point they relocated to California temporarily before going back to England. However, when Jack was 11 years old, they moved from England back to California.

Jack has followed his own path, becoming a paranormal investigator. However, he still involved his parents in his career. His Travel Channel series The Osbournes Want to Believe features Jack showing Ozzy and Sharon footage of paranormal activity and asking for their input.
Jack was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at 26 years old in 2012.
'I have had some alternative therapy treatments over the years. I do not take traditional MS medication currently,' he said on 'The Osbournes Podcast' in 2024.
Jack married actress Lisa Stelly in October 2012, and the pair welcomed daughters Pearl Clementine, Andy Rose and Minnie Theodora. He and Stelly divorced in March 2019, and he got engaged to Aree Gearhart in December 2021. Jack and Gearhart welcomed daughter Maple Artemis in March 2022.

Kate Bush tribute held on 'Wuthering Heights Day'
A government minister was among dozens of women in Birmingham who took part in an event celebrating writer Emily Brontë and singer Kate Bush. The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever also raised funds for women's charities as the group joined thousands of people across the world recreating the video to Bush's 1978 song Wuthering Heights. Birmingham's inaugural event earlier was organised by The Heath Bookshop, in King's Heath. The proceedings were opened by Home Office minister and Birmingham Yardley MP Jess Phillips. Charities set to benefit from the event include Anawim - Birmingham's Centre for Women and WE:ARE (Women's Empowerment And Recovery Educators). Shop owner Claire Dawes said it was a "great event" to put on "as the local community support the many arts events that happen here and always support charity events." The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever events have previously taken place in locations such as Sydney, Copenhagen, Berlin, Folkestone, and Preston. For the first time this year the event was set to take place on moorland on Penistone Hill, not far from the famous Brontë sister's home in Haworth.

The Spice Girls and Wu-Tang Clan Almost Had Their Own Anime
Now, here's a sentence no one expected to read in the year 2025: Once upon a time, we might have gotten to see the Spice Girls and the Wu-Tang Clan in anime form. In a recent interview with AnimEigo, Lawrence Guinness, a senior VP at Manga Entertainment, distributor of anime such as Perfect Blue and Street Fighter Alpha (and subsidiary of Island Records), revealed the company considered co-producing its own works. Two projects he mentioned would have starred the aforementioned bands, and the Spice Girls idea got far enough along that he had some production stills to show. Had it happened, it'd have been a film called Girl Power: The Anime, courtesy of Production I.G, the studio behind Ghost in the Shell. According to Guinness, Manga had 'very advanced talks' with the British pop group's management at the time this was pitched and would've hopefully appealed to fans of then-popular anime like Studio Ghibli. Even now, Guinness is confident teenage girls 'might've gone to the cinema to see this. In fact, I think you would've stood in a line for a long time to get in to see this. This was the vision. Look, if that's not girl power in action, I don't know what is.' As for the never-realized Wu-Tang project, a series that would have been called The Imperial Warrior, he claimed near everything was in place for the project, except some of the hip-hop group's members didn't sign off on it. His pitch to Island Records founder Chris Blackwell saw Wu-Tang 'challenging the forces of evil through their music and martial arts skills.' The soundtrack and designs for the characters (he mentioned RZA and Ghostface Killah specifically) were 'great,' said Guinness, and it would've been 'revolutionary. That was the project I was proudest of that never happened.' Over the decades, Japanese creators have been open about their love of western music, and artists like the late Prince and Aaliyah have inspired characters in Michiko & Hatchin and My Hero Academia. Making musicians or other celebrities into fictionalized versions of themselves for film and TV is another tale as old as time, and Guinness wanted these two projects to take off to both put Manga on the map and successfully 'synthesize anime with the best of western culture.' When it comes to Wu-Tang Clan, he's sort of gotten his wish, thanks to RZA's involvement in Afro Samurai and developer Brass Lion Entertainment's upcoming action game Wu-Tang: Rise of the Deceiver. As for the Spice Girls, it's a shame they never got their animated due—there are worse ways for a band to be memorialized than an anime movie with some original songs and cheesy action that still holds up years after the fact.

How Tom Cruise & Ana de Armas' Relationship Is Reminding Fans of His Brief Romance With Sofía Vergara
Tom Cruise may have a new love interest — but longtime observers are getting déjà vu. The 63-year-old actor touched down in London this week with Ana de Armas, 37, arriving via private helicopter with her two dogs and former F1 driver David Coulthard in tow. While neither star has confirmed a romance, the jet-setting, the grins, and the lavish gestures are starting to look familiar. Cruise kept it casual in a navy T-shirt and jeans, waving enthusiastically as Ana followed behind in a Vermont sweatshirt and leggings, cradling her Maltese Elvis. Havanese pup Salsa trotted beside her. It looked like a cozy couple moment — and if you ask the internet, maybe something more. More from SheKnows Pamela Anderson & Liam Neeson Can't Keep Their Hands off Each Other - And Fans Are Losing It 'Tom has been showering Ana with gifts ever since they met,' a source told Daily Mail. 'It's his thing, he is thoughtful.' The gifts reportedly began with flowers and books — the latter of which has raised some eyebrows — then escalated to gold bracelets, designer clothes, and globe-hopping getaways. 'Probably the biggest gift he has given her is being able to go anywhere in the world at a moment's notice,' the insider added. 'She loves to travel.' Sound familiar? Cruise pulled the same moves with Sofía Vergara back in 2005, calling her constantly and sending flowers and chocolates after they met at a pre-Oscar party. According to reports, she was briefly dazzled — until she realized she was being 'auditioned' for a role that came with a conversion clause. The romance fizzled when she refused to leave her Catholic faith for Scientology. Cruise reportedly attempted to rekindle the romance back in 2023 with no luck. Cruise's reputation for orchestrated courtship isn't new. Between the Vergara chapter and the much-publicized relationship with Katie Holmes (who allegedly filed for divorce to protect daughter Suri from the Church), Cruise has kept his personal life meticulously private — but often telling in pattern. The Mission Impossible star and de Armas have known each other since Wasp Network in 2019 and are now filming Deeper, a supernatural thriller directed by Doug Liman. 'It's so much fun, and we're definitely working on a lot of things,' the Knives Out star teased in a May Good Morning America interview. 'Not just one but a few projects with Doug Liman and Christopher McQuarrie and, of course, Tom. And I'm so excited.' Are they just colleagues? Longtime friends? Or is Cruise, once again, trying to script something more? One thing's clear: the gifts are back.
