While Ozzy Osbourne has faced his demons himself over the years, his daughter Kelly Osbourne has also struggled with addiction, but she is now nearly 2 years sober.
“I am [in a great place],” the 34-year-old reality star told British TV show Lorraine on Thursday, via People. “I am almost two years sober and it’s completely changed my life.”
With this has come a growth in self-confidence — and a realization that life’s problems can’t miraculously be swept away through self-medicating with drugs and alcohol.
“I didn’t think I could do anything if I wasn’t drunk or high, because I was scared of everything. I let it get the better of me,” said Kelly, who’s in London ahead of hosting the 2019 British LGBT Awards on Friday.
“Now seeing that I don’t need that, and my life is better. … I don’t have any drama in my life. I have accepted the fact that — and I know I have said this throughout my whole life, but I really understand it now — that I am not perfect, and I am never going to be, and I don’t want to be.”
She also discussed her issues with drugs and alcohol after Demi Lovato overdosed last summer.
“I gave up on everything in my life but most of all I gave up on myself,” she wrote on Instagram. “Life on life’s terms became too much for me to handle.”
