Steven Tylerdaughter of Mia Tyler comes to Kelly OsbourneSelf defense over body shaming.
Mia, 47, took to Instagram on Monday, March 2, to address criticism of Osbourne’s appearance after attending the 2026 BRIT Awards. “Public grief is not public property. Grief can change a person,” wrote Mia, Kelly, 41, and retweeted. “That doesn’t make their bodies the subject of debate.”
Kelly and her mother, Sharon Osbourne, appeared at an event in Manchester, England, on Saturday, February 28, to collect an afterlife achievement award on behalf of the deceased. Ozzy Osbournewho died in July 2025.
After receiving body shaming comments, Kelly spoke out on social media.
“There is a special cruelty in hurting someone who is clearly going through something,” Kelly wrote on her Instagram stories on Sunday, March 1. “Kicking me when I’m down, spreading my struggle like gossip and turning my back on you when I need support and love the most. Nothing proves strength.”
Kelly continued, “It showed a huge lack of compassion and character. I’m going through the hardest time in my life right now. I shouldn’t even be defending myself.”
Kelly blocked the hurtful comments, adding, “I’m not going to sit here and allow myself to be dehumanized like this.”
The television actress has recently come out against critics who say she looks too thin following the death of her father.
“I can’t believe how disgusting some people are,” Kelly wrote on Instagram last month. “No one deserves this kind of abuse! This too shall pass, but as holy f***.”
Kelly has been candid about her weight over the years. She has previously spoken about her decision to undergo gastric sleeve surgery in 2018.
Over the years, Kelly Osbourne has shared her struggles and successes with her sobriety, weight loss and other personal moments. “I started to get sober,” the former Fashion Police host told Us Weekly in May 2021. “I replaced drugs and alcohol with food, and my body changed in a different way. When I got sober and gained uncontrollable weight, it was crazy. [People] saved […]
“I lost, like, I want to say 35 pounds, 40 pounds, and then I stopped losing,” she exclusively told Us Weekly in August 2020 about the results of her procedure. “I just stopped because I didn’t listen to what they said, I just thought it would be fixed quickly, then I was done, I would have lost weight.” [I thought I] he didn’t have to work or do anything. I couldn’t have been more wrong. You have to do everything they tell you when you do the surgery, otherwise it won’t work.”
At that time, Kelly called people who asked about his stories.
“I want to start by saying that I have received so many beautiful, lovely, lovely comments from people who have helped me so much to get through this time in my life since my father passed away,” she said in a December 2025 social media video.[I’ve seen some] disgusting, horrible, profane, rude words. I’m just here to say, what do you expect from me? What do you expect me to look like now? The fact that I get out of bed and face my life and try to be more than enough, I should be commended for that.”
Kelly added: “My life has completely changed. I don’t understand how people expect me to go back and look like everything is going well in my life when it’s not. People’s faces change when you get older.”
