Just days after saying goodbye to her father, the iconic Ozzy Osbourne, Kelly Osbourne quietly honored him in a way only a daughter could. At the private cemetery on their Buckinghamshire estate, she laid a powerful arrangement of black and violet blooms—visually defiant yet deeply loving.
But her true tribute came moments later: sitting beside her father’s graveside, Kelly performed an intimate acoustic rendition of “Changes,” the classic they once sang together. Her voice trembled with raw emotion, transforming the moment into a sacred, personal farewell.
Ozzy–who passed away on July 22 at the age of 76—was laid to rest in a private ceremony just days later. Kelly’s gesture served as a more poignant public statement than any words could convey.
In photos shared on Instagram, her floral tribute spelled out “OZZY F***ING OSBOURNE,” a bold declaration of love that matched the intensity of grieving and remembrance.
Earlier, Kelly had spoken candidly about her father’s final days. Just two weeks before Ozzy died, she celebrated his triumphant energy ahead of his last concert, saying: “My dad was feeling amazing… so excited for his final show.”
That show turned bittersweet when Kelly got engaged to musician Sid Wilson in front of her father in Birmingham—a memory now tinged with heartbreak as Ozzy would never be there to walk her down the aisle.
At the funeral procession through Birmingham, Kelly wore Ozzy’s signature purple glasses—a quiet, tender nod to her father as she and her siblings Jack and Aimee placed their own floral tributes. The family paused at Black Sabbath Bridge, greeted by fans and fellow mourners who gathered to pay tribute.
Stars from the rock world—Marilyn Manson, Corey Taylor, Zakk Wylde, Rob Zombie, and others—joined the private service near the estate’s lake, underscoring the impact Ozzy had on generations of musicians. Manson wrote afterward: “Today we laid to rest a beloved friend… Your legacy lives on.”
Kelly’s tribute—bold flower arrangement and tender acoustic farewell—was her way of breaking the silence. It was raw, real, and full of grief and love. And in doing so, she reminded us all that loss often speaks loudest through music and the memories it brings.
