Kelly Osbourne is hitting back at the cruel body-shaming she has been subjected to online in recent months.
“I will be honest and say that I’ve never experienced cruelty like it,” Kelly, 41, exclusively told Us Weekly at the LAX.BID charity art auction in aid of Mind and The Ricky Hatton Foundation in London on Thursday, June 18. “And I don’t think anyone deserves that kind of cruelty.”
The television star and singer said that she doesn’t “pay any attention to” the mean comments about her appearance but added, “You have to be very mentally unwell to say the things that people are saying about me.”
“I feel sorry for them,” she said of her online detractors.
Kelly has been candid about grieving the death of her father, legendary rocker Ozzy Osbourne, who died in July 2025 at age 76. She also split from fiancé Sid Wilson, with whom she shares son Sidney, 3, earlier this year.
Kelly credited her family and friends, as well as her little one, with helping her stay resilient amid her difficult year and the online trolls she continues to face.
“I have an amazing support system. I have an amazing medical team. I have an amazing family. I have amazing friends … and my son,” she told Us. “And you never really know what’s going on with someone. That’s why I always make the point to smile at someone when I’m walking down the street, because that one smile can change their whole everything.”
Kelly opened up about her grief over Ozzy, telling Us that it has brought her much closer to her family, including mom Sharon Osbourne, 73.
She said, “It’s taught me that time is the most precious thing we have.”
In December 2025, Kelly called out “disgusting, horrible, mean, rude comments” about her appearance on Instagram.
“I’m just here to say, what do you expect from me? What do you expect me to look like right now?” Kelly said in an Instagram Story video. “The fact that I’m getting out of bed and facing my life and trying to be more than enough, I should be commended for that.”
She continued, “For example, you say that I look ill. Well, I am ill right now. My life is completely flipped upside down. I don’t understand how people expect me to bounce back and look like everything is just fine in my life when it’s not.”
Kelly Osbourne is speaking out after her physical appearance has continued to foster body-shaming comments. “There is a special kind of cruelty in harming someone who is clearly going through something,” Osbourne, 41, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Sunday, March 1. “Kicking me while I’m down, spreading my struggles as gossip and turning your […]
“Another thing that is strange is that 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,” Kelly said at the time.
“The thing that I find the most disappointing in all of this is that most of the comments are coming from grown-ass women,” the “Papa Don’t Preach” singer added. “Women that say they’re counselors, women that are mothers, women who look like they have weight struggles of their own.”
“And it’s absolutely devastating that women can’t support other women,” she shared. “They’d rather tear them down when their dad just died. It’s disgusting, and I’ve had enough of it. So, go f*** yourself.”
