Kelly Osbourne spent Father’s Day 2026 thinking of her late father, Ozzy Osbourne, who died last year.
“Dad, I still find myself looking for you in ordinary moments, the advice I need, the joke I want to tell, the victory I wish you could see,” Kelly, 41, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, June 21. “The ache of missing you is the price of loving you, and I would pay it forever rather than have never been your child at all!”
She continued, “I will never stop missing you. It is an honor to spend the rest of my life loving you. Until we meet again! 💔.”
Kelly also shared a handful of throwback family photos via her Instagram Stories, including images of Ozzy bonding with Kelly’s 3-year-old son, Sidney, and a screenshot of a past text exchange with her dad.
“I know whenever I’m feeling sick and miserable, all I have to do i s watch the video you sent of little Sid in the bath and it makes me so happy,” Ozzy previously wrote in a text to Kelly. “I just wish you were both still here. I really love the both of you and all I want is for the two of you to be happy.”
The Black Sabbath rocker added, “And if there is anything you need from me, you only need to ask. I have decided that the days of gigs for me are over because I need my health a lot more. I don’t know how I’m gonna do back in England without seeing all of my family, you all mean the world to me but I’m sure we will all l work something out. God bless the both of you, I love you.”
Kelly, who shares Sidney with Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson, immediately wrote back at the time.
“Dad, I love you more than anything in the world. Sidney and I miss you terribly,” Kelly responded. “Do you want to come over this weekend and see my house? Only if you feel up to it of course.”
Ozzy, who died in July 2025 at age 76 after a lengthy battle with Parkinson’s disease, is survived by wife Sharon Osbourne, his children and grandchildren.
For the Osbourne’s first Father’s Day since Ozzy’s death, Kelly and her siblings planned to honor the rocker’s legacy.
“Me and my brother Louis are going to do something special for my dad this weekend,” Kelly exclusively told Us Weekly on Thursday, June 18, detailing her bereavement journey. “I’m getting a little bit better every day. The pain will never go away, and I’ll never be the person I was before he died again. I’m getting to know the new me.”
