Kelly Osbourne has had it with the body shaming. 

On Wednesday, The Osbournes star posted a series of videos to her Instagram Story where she addressed some of the comments she’s received since her dad Ozzy Osbourne’s death in July 2025. 

Kelly Osbourne calls out ‘horrible, brutal comments’ about her apperance 

“I’ve received so many lovely, lovely, lovely comments from people that have really helped me get through this time in my life since losing my father,” she said. “But I also received some disgusting, mean, horrible, brutal comments.”

Many of those comments were directed at her appearance and her weight. On a December 10 Instagram post about Osbourne’s attendance at an event for baker and cookbook author Julie Sears, Osbourne’s followers shared dancing skeleton GIFs and told her to “eat the cookie.” Several implied their criticism was coming from a place of genuine concern. 

“No disrespect, but you don’t look healthy,” one wrote.

“What do you expect from me? What do you expect me to look like right now?” Osbourne said in her video. 

“For example, you say that I look ill,” the mom of one said. “Well, I am ill right now. My life is completely flipped upside down. I don’t understand why people expect me to bounce back and look like everything is just fine in my life when it’s not.” 

“These mean comments are helping nobody … it’s sick. You’re mentally ill,” Osbourne added.

‘The Osbournes’ star says it’s ‘devastating’ that women can’t support other women 

The Lego Masters Jr. host has spent much of her adult life in the public eye. But she said people don’t seem to realize that she’s not going to look the same as she did on her family’s MTV reality show. 

“Another thing that is strange is you compare photos of me now, at 41 years old, to a picture of me when I was 18 years old. People’s faces change when you grow older,” she said. 

Osbourne also said that it was discouraging to see hurtful comments from other women, including some who were counselors and mothers.  

“The thing that I find most disappointing in all of this is that most of the comments are coming from grown-ass women … it’s absolutely devastating that women can’t support other women,” she said. “They’d rather tear them down when their dad just died. It’s disgusting and I’ve had enough of it. So, go f*ck yourself.” 

Obsourne’s mom Sharon Osbourne defended her daughter from vicious online trolls during a recent interview with Piers Morgan (via YouTube). Ozzy’s widow said online bullies were taking their own issues out on others.  

“It’s a shield,” she said. “It’s a shield for people who are unhappy and jealous … a lot of effort goes into that and I just feel sorry for people.”
