Kelly Osbourne got engaged to Sid Wilson at her father Ozzy Osbourne's Black Sabbath farewell concert.
The TV personality took to Instagram Sunday to share a sweet clip of the proposal, which occurred the night before backstage at Villa Park in Birmingham, England.
While surrounded by their family and friends, the Slipknot member said, 'Kelly, you know I love you more than anything in the world.'
Ozzy, 76, then jokingly interrupted, saying, 'F**k off, you're not marrying my daughter.'
Laughter erupted from the room, including from Kelly, 40, and her mum, Sharon Osbourne, 76, who was sitting next to her husband.
'Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you,' Wilson, 48, continued.
'So in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?' the keyboardist added.
Kelly looked around the room in shock, nodding, 'Yes.'
Wilson then slipped the ring on her finger before they hugged.
'Oh and this happened yesterday!' she captioned the post on Instagram.
Kelly and Wilson became friends in 1999 when the latter's band toured on her parents' music festival, Ozzfest, per People.
The couple took their relationship to the next level in January 2022 and hard-launched their romance the following month.
'After 23 years of friendship, I can't believe where we have ended up!' the Fashion Police alum wrote via Instagram at the time.
'You are my best friend, my soulmate and I am so deeply in love with you Sidney George Wilson.'
Kelly and Wilson share a 2-year-old son, Sidney, whom they welcomed in November 2022.

F1 star Lando Norris injured after Grand Prix win after a fence collapsed during celebrations

Lando Norris was injured during his celebrations shortly after the Formula One British Grand Prix. Norris, 25, had taken the chequered flag in a tricky but thrilling race at Silverstone. The McLaren driver was presented with the glistening RAC trophy and a unique one built out of Lego Bricks on the podium.

Footage showed the Brit walking up to the wall as he held the trophy for his win. Watch the moment the F1 star was injured in the video player above As he approached the fence separating him from a crowd of fans, one of the McLaren team members climbed the fence next to a photographer. However, the fence then collapsed under the weight of them and saw the photographer fly back into the F1 star as his section on the right side of it came away. With cameras pointed at him from every angle behind him, Norris appeared to headbutt one of the camera lenses as he was surprised by the falling photographer on the fence. He was then seen holding his face in his hands as the photographer apologised for the accidental collision. Footage showed the driver being escorted back to his garage in the pit lane as he held his hands over his face. McLaren have confirmed that Norris has a small cut on his nose, but is otherwise fine. Norris had been reduced to tears after winning his home race ahead of teammate Oscar Piastri and Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg - who landed his first ever podium in 239 F1 races. He was overcome with emotion and forgot to check his language live on Sky Sports as he conducted his post-race interview. Jenson Button was forced to apologise on the driver's behalf after he swore when saying his thoughts in the final laps were to 'not f*** it up'. His language could see him fined nearly A$8,800 under the FIA's 'swearing ban' which was made a permanent rule this season.

How Prince Harry 'betrayed' the Queen before she passed

There are only so many times a hardy writer can describe the late Queen as 'sphinx-like' but that's exactly what she was. In public Her late Majesty gave less away than an Easter Island statue in a particularly inscrutable mood. But in private? Whoo boy. She reportedly did not hold back and those inside royal circles are now talking, revealing how Queen Elizabeth allegedly truly felt about Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex. According to a new report, in her final years, the 'dying' Queen (who 'could hardly see…could hardly stand…could hardly move') was left 'utterly devastated' by her grandson. At the centre of the newest claims are the events of early 2021. Her late Majesty's husband of 73 years Prince Philip, aged 99, grand commander of the bbq tongs and steadfast helpmate, was clearly unwell, and the Sussexes had been in the US for nearly a year. They were ready to let their truth ring out and for Oprah Winfrey to get the scoop of the century. We all know what happened next - the casting of the Crown Inc as a biased and cold-blooded organisation that had blatantly ignored the Sussexees' suffering. Outwardly at the time the late Queen's response might have been restrained (who can forget the iconic line, 'recollections may vary'?) but in private she was 'utterly devastated', 'betrayed' and 'dismayed', according to royal friends and insiders who have spoken to The Daily Beast 's Tom Sykes. A former courtier has now told Sykes of Her late Majesty's anguish over the Sussexes' Oprah revelations while Philip 'was on his deathbed.' 'Ultimately, the queen felt betrayed by Harry, and when he and Meghan attacked the institution that she spent her whole life serving in the Oprah interview, that betrayal was complete,' the courtier said. 'It was absolutely shocking to those of us that knew him that he would do that'. They went on: 'The allegations of racism dismayed [the queen]. To accuse an unidentified person within the family of racism, thereby casting the shadow of suspicion over everyone, was unforgivable in her eyes.' (Harry would later, in another TV interview, insist that he and his wife had not accused his family of racism but 'unconscious bias'.) The courtier commented: 'Things were never the same after that. ... It was a horrific series of betrayals at the end of her life.' That view is one echoed by a friend of the royal family who told Sykes on Sunday: 'You have to remember [that] the queen was seriously ill for several years with bone cancer. She knew she was dying, she could hardly see, she could hardly stand, she could hardly move. And then she was completely let down by her grandson. It was utterly devastating for her.' Of the Sussexes' dramatic, San Andreas-like fault with the royal family, a friend of Prince William and Kate, The Princess of Wales, has chimed too, telling Sykes, 'The family, of course, all blame Meghan 100 percent'. '[Harry] ain't the sharpest tool in the box, and they feel he was completely manipulated and that Meghan saw him and realised she could become the most famous person in the world. Then the reality of what their boring royal life would be like sunk in, and she decided to ruthlessly milk it for all it was worth. That is their view.' One person who reportedly experienced, first hand, how bad things were between Her late Majesty and the Duke of Sussex was a Buckingham Palace switchboard operator. This weekend supremely well connected royal writer Richard Kay revealed an incident that happened during the pandemic when Harry called the Buckingham Palace switchboard to speak to his grandmother. As the switchboard operator told Kay: 'When I announced to the Queen that Harry was her caller there was just a stony silence…it was so uncomfortable'. These new details from Sykes and Kay come after emails sent by a cousin of the late Queen were published in which she wrote about Queen Elizabeth's private fears about the Sussexes' union and how a 'rude' Harry 'blew' his relationship with his grandmother. Lady Elizabeth Anson was not only related to Queen Elizabeth but they were reportedly so close they finished each other's sentences and spoke on the phone weekly. In emails Lady Elizabeth sent to respected royal biographer Sally Bedell Smith ahead of the Sussexes' 2018 wedding, she revealed that Harry had 'really upset' Queen Elizabeth and that 'she was so saddened'. During a tea with Queen Elizabath, the duke 'was rude to her for ten minutes.' Two weeks before the duke and duchess' 2018 wedding, Lady Elizabeth told Bedell Smith that the late Queen was 'very worried'. 'Harry is besotted and weak about women. We hope but don't quite think she is in love. We think she engineered it all.' 'The Number One Lady…says the jury is out on whether she likes Meghan'. (Bedell Smith revealed the correspondence with Lady Elizabeth on her Substack.) Less than two years later, the Sussexes would be pitching their tent in California and embarking on a new life and in 2022, 'The Number One Lady' would pass away, reportedly suffering from a rare form of bone cancer. Two days before her death the late Queen posed for the cameras with new Prime Minister Liz Truss for what would be her final photo. Despite clearly being unwell, Queen Elizabeth still gave nothing away.

Ozzy Osbourne plays final concert sitting on black throne amid Parkinson's battle

British rock star Ozzy Osbourne has played his final concert, reuniting metal legends Black Sabbath, for the 40,000-strong show in his home town of Birmingham at the weekend. The 76-year-old took to the stage for the first time in two years on Saturday night (Sunday AEST), performing the entire set seated on a dark, bat-winged throne, as he struggles with Parkinson's disease. Dressed in a quintessential all-black ensemble, Osbourne, also a former reality star, rose from the ground seated on an enormous black throne and urged the crowd to 'let the madness begin'. He later paid tribute to his fans. 'I don't know what to say, man. I've been laid up for like six years. You have no idea how I feel – thank you from the bottom of my heart,' Osbourne said. 'You're all … special. Let's go crazy, come on.' Osbourne performed several songs solo before being joined on stage, for the first time in 20 years, by Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Terence 'Geezer' Butler and Bill Ward. The band ended a four-song set with Paranoid, one of their best known songs. The throne Osbourne performed on — a black armchair adorned with skulls and a giant bat with outstretched wings — appeared to be the same one the rock star performed on during his induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in October last year. Black Sabbath band members had earlier flagged that the set would be short, indicating that age-related stamina issues were keeping them from a longer offering. The band was presented a cake at the end of their set, which would serve as their last concert as a group. It capped a day-long metal festival that included performances from the likes of Anthrax, Metallica and Guns N'Roses. Hollywood star Jason Momoa and Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler were watching from the crowd while other artists – including Jack Black, Dolly Parton and Elton John – sent plaudits and well wishes.
