Kelly Osbourne and Sid Wilson End Engagement

Kelly Osbourne has reportedly split from Slipknot turntablist Sid Wilson, ending their engagement months after the pair publicly announced plans to marry. The reported breakup comes as Osbourne continues to navigate a period of family grief following the death of her father, Black Sabbath icon Ozzy Osbourne, and it marks a major change for the couple, who share a young son.

TMZ reported that a source told the Daily Mail the engagement ended during what was described as an “incredibly difficult” time for Osbourne as she deals with her father’s passing, with the source claiming the two decided separating was “the best path forward.”

According to that account, the couple tried to make the relationship work “particularly for the sake of their child,” but ultimately chose to split, with the source adding that Osbourne is focusing on herself and motherhood while maintaining her sobriety. Osbourne is 41 and Wilson is 49, and they share a three-year-old son named Sidney.

The engagement was revealed last summer when Wilson proposed backstage at Ozzy Osbourne’s final concert with Black Sabbath, capping a long personal history between the two that reportedly stretches back to their years in the Ozzfest orbit when Slipknot toured the festival founded by Ozzy and Ms. Sharon Osbourne.

In recent months, Osbourne has been increasingly visible in public conversations around family and personal wellbeing, including a moment when she broke down in tears during a tribute, underscoring how closely her private life has been tied to her father’s legacy.

Neither Osbourne nor Wilson has publicly commented on the reported split in the TMZ item, and it remains unclear what the immediate co-parenting arrangements will look like. For now, the central takeaway is that one of rock’s higher-profile celebrity engagements appears to have ended amid an intense period of mourning and transition.
