After recently appearing in public following the death of her father, Kelly Osbourne found herself facing a wave of online criticism about her appearance. Many commenters speculated about her weight and accused her of using Ozempic, prompting Kelly to respond in a series of emotional videos.

Kelly said the comments were especially painful while she is grieving the loss of Ozzy Osbourne and trying to cope with one of the most difficult periods of her life. Her mother, Sharon Osbourne, publicly defended her, reminding critics that Kelly is mourning her father.

The backlash also reopened a conversation that has followed Kelly for most of her life. From years of public body-shaming to constant speculation about weight-loss methods, she says people continue to judge her appearance regardless of what she does. Now, Kelly is asking for something simple: compassion.
