Share this @internewscast.com

Kelly Osbourne has taken a stand against the harsh criticism she’s faced online regarding her recent weight loss. After appearing at several public events, including a high-profile spot at London Fashion Week, concerns over her health have been circulating, with some questioning her appearance.

The singer and television personality, who insists she has not used weight loss injections, was notably slimmer when she attended the Ascot Millinery Collective’s fashion show at Claridge’s in Mayfair. Her transformation has sparked a wave of online negativity, with some individuals resorting to personal attacks.

Osbourne, 41, addressed the situation through her Instagram account, sharing a particularly offensive comment that referenced her late father, Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away last July. The cruel message suggested she looked unwell and included a distasteful joke about reuniting with her father, accompanied by laughing emojis.

In response to the derogatory remarks, Osbourne expressed her disbelief and disappointment in people’s behavior. “I literally can’t believe how disgusting some human beings are! No one deserves this sort of abuse!” she wrote, alongside a selection of supportive replies from her followers.

Taking to Instagram, Osbourne, 41, shared a screenshot of the distasteful message, which read: ‘Looks like a dead body… she’s too thin and fragile… looks like she’s going to see her dad soon,’ followed by a string of laughing emojis. 

Commenting on Monday, the mother-of-one, who also shared a handful of appalled responses to the post, wrote: ‘Literally can’t believe how disgusting some human beings are! No one deserves this sort of abuse!’

Sharing a second post, she added: ‘This too shall pass, but like, holy f**k.’ 

Osbourne has been forced to repeatedly defend herself over her physical appearance following the sudden death of her father at his Buckinghamshire home last summer. 

Over the years, the British TV personality has been open about her insecurities around weight, which dates back to her teen years while starring in her family’s reality show, The Osbournes.

‘I got pulled into the head of the agency’s office and he … gave me a whole speech about how I was too fat for TV and I needed to lose weight, and that if I lost weight, I would look better,’ she revealed on The Osbournes podcast last year.

‘And he was just saying, “You’re not a movie star, but you could be one if you lost weight.”‘

Since then, Osbourne’s weight journey has been a rollercoaster.

She underwent gastric sleeve surgery in 2018, calling it ‘the best thing I have ever done,’ and credited a combination of surgery, strict diet and high-intensity interval training for shedding 85lbs.

But pregnancy added another twist. When she was expecting son Sidney in 2022, Osbourne gained around 100lbs and developed gestational diabetes, later admitting she avoided the spotlight because of it.

‘She has told people that she got skinnier for her kid. She wants to be around for her kid and play and be with her kid for a long time, and now that she lost her dad, she sees that being something even more important,’ our second source said.

‘She doesn’t want to be the weight she used to be and she is going to do whatever she needs to do to stay skinny.’

Osbourne has repeatedly fended off critics who scrutinize her dramatic transformation, most notably denying Ozempic rumours.

‘I know everybody thinks I took Ozempic. I did not take Ozempic. I don’t know where that came from. My mom took Ozempic,’ she previously told Extra.

But those close to Kelly are keeping a watchful eye, with a source telling the Daily Mail that ‘nobody near her is looking to provide an intervention, but people have noticed and are monitoring it’.

‘Kelly is definitely not concerned with how she looks and would tell anyone that would bring it up to her to go screw off, but she does get upset over people talking about it,’ the source added.

‘She is very skinny. She has been working on her weight her entire life and the stress of her dad passing away has been a major struggle to deal with that is taking a toll on her look and health.’
