Kelly Osbourne, 41, attended the J Sheekey x Vivienne Westwood terrace launch party in London on Monday night, looking healthy and happy according to friends. This follows her performance with Scissor Sisters at the Mighty Hoopla festival in Brockwell Park, where her three-year-old son Sid watched her perform for the first time. The appearances come after a period of grief following the death of her father Ozzy Osbourne on July 22, 2025 , and after she ended her engagement to Slipknot's Sid Wilson.

How the Mighty Hoopla stage became a personal milestone for Kelly Osbourne

According to a friend quoted by the source, Kelly Osbourne had "the best time" performing with Scissor Sisters at Europe's largest LGBTQ+ music festival.. The friend told the Daily Mail that the LGBTQ+ community has been her biggest supporters. It was also the first time her son Sid, three, saw her perform — he was seen dancing backstage while she sang her 2005 track "One Word."

The performance marked a notable return to music for Osbourne, whose last album was released two decades ago. The festival set also included guest appearances by Sir Ian McKellen and Belinda Carlisle, according to the report.

The online trolls she confronted after Ozzy Osbourne's death

Kelly Osbourne has been open about struggling with grief after her father Ozzy died of a cardiac arrest at age 76. The source reported that she had difficulty eating and was forced to hit back at trolls who criticized her weight loss. A friend told the Daily Mail that people were "so awful to her" and that she needed "time to settle back into her life again ."

The public scrutiny of her appearance during a period of intense personal loss reflects a broader issue: celebrities grieving in the public eye often face unsolicited commentary, which can compound trauma. Osbourne's decision to step out and perform anyway is a pointed rebuttal to those critics.

From engagement end to a new partner: Kelly's personal upheaval in 2025

In March, Kelly ended her engagement to Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson, the father of her son Sid. the source also reported that she has been linked to a new partner named Kiinicki, who uses they/them pronouns. This personal reboot coincides with a professional one: her music career,which spans two albums — Shut Up (2002) and Sleeping In The Nothing (2005) — is getting a fresh spotlight through her stage appearances.

The report does not include a comment from Osbourne herself about the relationship, but her friend said she is "looking so good and healthy" and that she had "the best time" at the festival. The friend's emphasis on health appears to be a direct response to the body-shaming she endured.

What remains unspoken: new music, new partner, and the questions Kelly hasn't answered

While the source focuses on Kelly's public appearances, it does not address whether she plans to release new music, tour, or return to television. Her relationship with Kiinicki has not been confirmed by Kelly personally, and details about how she is managing the balance between motherhood, grief, and career remain private. The article also does not include any comments from Kelly herself.

For now, the narrative around Kelly Osbourne is being shaped by the words of a close friend — not by her own statements. Her social media activity, including a selfie showing off her makeup, suggests she is ready to control her own image after a period of enforced silence grieving her father.
