Kelly Osbourne is reminding the world of who her dad was.

On the day following the private burial of Ozzy Osbourne in his birthplace, Birmingham, England, the former Fashion Police member posted a photo from the ceremony.

On August 1st, I shared an Instagram story featuring a photo I took of a striking sign adorned with flowers, displaying the name “Ozzy Fking Osbourne.” This intense signage was situated by a tranquil pond nestled amidst picturesque farming landscapes in the English countryside.

Yesterday, Kelly, her mother Sharon Osbourne, along with siblings Jack Osbourne, Aimee Osbourne, and Louis Osbourne, convened with musicians such as Zakk Wylde, Marilyn Manson, and others for a private funeral of the legendary Black Sabbath rocker.

On July 30th, I was a part of an emotional procession held in Birmingham, where I, alongside Ozzy’s family, bid a tearful farewell to the Prince of Darkness, who passed away on July 22nd at the age of 76. Beyond just the Osbourne family, countless fans of this legendary musician paid their respects by placing flowers and heartfelt messages at the city’s Black Sabbath bridge and bench.

Birmingham Mayor Zafar Iqbal stated to the media that it was crucial for us to establish an appropriate, respectful memorial prior to a private funeral of a family member. He acknowledged the significance of this event for his admirers.

After hearing about his death, Kelly expressed her sorrow in an Instagram post on July 24, saying, “I’m feeling really low. I’m incredibly sad because I’ve lost the greatest friend I’ve ever known.

Apart from Ozzy’s daughter, his sister Jean Powell reminisced about one of her last moments with her brother, John Michael Osbourne (also known as Ozzy), during Black Sabbath’s farewell concert on July 5th.

In an interview with The Mirror on July 23, Jean expressed that it was distressing as he wasn’t able to stand upright, however, he remained our beloved John, still making us laugh with his jokes.

Although he was weakened, his passing was unexpected, and I’m grateful that he passed away in England.
