Kelly Osbourne opened up about the drastic changes in her body due to grief from losing her father, Ozzy Osbourne, in July 2025. In a recent interview, she expressed shock at how she looked, saying she felt like she resembled the “Crypt Keeper.” She struggled to perceive her physical state amidst her pain, which overshadowed her awareness of her weight loss.
Attending the 2026 Grammys, where her father was honored, she took steps to conceal her appearance, wearing a wig to cover her face and working with stylists to select outfits that minimized her perceived skinniness. Reflecting on her decision to attend, she expressed regret, stating she wasn’t well and should have prioritized her health.
Kelly discussed experiencing anticipatory grief before her father’s passing due to his Parkinson’s diagnosis in 2019, which led her to believe she’d be prepared for his death. She stated, “The person I was before my dad died is dead,” highlighting the profound impact of her loss.
In response to online criticism following her appearance at the Brit Awards, she called out the lack of compassion from the public, sharing the challenges she’s facing during this difficult time. Kelly also plans to share her story in an upcoming three-part documentary series focused on grief and mental health.
Despite the struggles, she reassured fans she’s seeking help and recognizing the importance of mental health in her healing process. If you or someone you know is facing similar issues, resources are available for support.
