The announcement came on July 6, 2025, following a proposal that took place during one of the most iconic events in heavy metal historyâOzzy Osbourneâs final concert with Black Sabbath at Englandâs Villa Park.
đ¸ A Proposal Backstage at a Farewell Show
The engagement wasnât just a private affairâit was a public celebration of love, family, and music. Sid Wilson, best known as the masked turntablist of Slipknot, proposed to Kelly Osbourne backstage, surrounded by friends, family, and the echoes of a legendary farewell performance.
In a video shared by Kelly on Instagram, Wilson is seen taking her hand and saying, âKelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world.â Before he could continue, her father, Ozzy Osbourne, playfully interrupted with a classic rocker quip: âF— off, youâre not marrying my daughter!â The room erupted in laughter, but the moment quickly turned emotional as Wilson continued, âNothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you. So, in front of your family and all of our friendsâKelly, will you marry me?â
Kelly, visibly stunned, nodded yes through tears and laughter, embracing Wilson as the room filled with cheers. Her mother, Sharon Osbourne, and brother, Jack Osbourne, were among those celebrating the moment.
đ°ď¸ From Friendship to Forever
The coupleâs love story is rooted in decades of friendship. Kelly and Sid first met in 1999, when Slipknot performed at Ozzfest, the traveling metal festival founded by her parents. Over the years, their bond deepened, but it wasnât until January 2022 that they officially began dating.
Their relationship blossomed quickly. Later that year, they welcomed their first child together, a son named Sidney. Kelly has often spoken about the depth of their connection, calling Sid her âbest friendâ and âsoulmate.â In a 2022 Valentineâs Day post, she wrote, âAfter 23 years of friendship I canât believe where we have ended up! You are my best friend, my soulmate and I am so deeply in love with you Sidney George Wilson.â
đ¤ A Family Affair
The engagement was more than a romantic gestureâit was a symbolic passing of the torch.

In her Instagram caption, she wrote, âOh and this happened yesterday!ââa casual understatement for a life-changing event. She also paid tribute to her fatherâs legacy, saying, âTo say that yesterday was magic was an understatement! I canât even write this without tears streaming down my face. Thank you to everyone who came to support my dad. My dad got his moment in the sun! He was able to say thank you and goodbye in the most beautiful way!â
