In a stunning twist of events at Birmingham’s Villa Park, Kelly Osbourne’s fiancé Sid Wilson popped the question in a setting straight out of a fairytale—or perhaps more accurately, a heavy metal ballad. The backdrop? None other than Ozzy Osbourne’s final farewell concert, a moment that was intended to be nothing short of perfect. But in true rockstar fashion, Ozzy provided an unforgettable, albeit expletive-filled, interruptio“F*** off, you’re not marrying my daughter!” The moment quickly transformed from awkward to hilarious as the audience, including Kelly’s mom, Sharon, burst into laughter.
Unfazed, Sid continued on with his emotional proposal, declaring, “You know I love you more than anything. Nothing would make me happier than spending the rest of my life with you.” A bold declaration, indeed, especially given the setting and the family dynamic involved.

The engagement ring Sid chose for Kelly included a heartfelt nod to the late Joan Rivers, who had a special bond with her. Joan, who worked closely with Kelly on the show Fashion Police, affectionately referred to her as “Honeybee.” In a beautiful tribute, Sid commissioned an 18K yellow gold ring designed to resemble a beehive and honeycomb, featuring both white and yellow diamonds. The emotional moment when Sid saw the finished ring was palpable, capturing him in tears.
Despite their nearly four years together and formalizing their relationship in January 2022, Kelly had previously voiced her ambivalence toward marriage. In an interview, she confessed, “I found my guy. We don’t need the certificate,” underscoring her appreciation for intimate moments over grand spectacles. But her love for Sid overruled her reservations; she chose to embrace the journey with him, knowing how much the proposal meant.
Fans couldn’t help but notice the striking similarities between Sid and her rock legend father, leading to many lighthearted jokes about how he’d seamlessly mesh into the family. “Never in a million f****** years did I think I’d end up with a rock star partner,” Kelly expressed with pride. What a ride it has been for her, lining up perfectly with the chaos that defines the Osbourne family.
