The Osbourne family marked a deeply emotional milestone this Christmas, gathering together for the first festive season since the death of Ozzy Osbourne.
At her Buckinghamshire home, Sharon Osbourne, 73, welcomed 14 relatives and two dogs for the occasion, a property Ozzy shared with Sharon before his death, where he is now buried.
The Black Sabbath star died at the age of 76 on July 22 after years of health issues, including Parkinson’s.
The family marked the bittersweet holiday with every guest dressed in matching navy, red, and green tartan pyjamas.
In a photo taken during the celebrations, Sharon stood proudly at the centre of the group, poking out her tongue in a playful moment that proved she’s doing her best to get on with her life despite the loss of her beloved husband.
Also pictured was Kelly Osbourne, 41, sitting on the floor with her husband, Sid Wilson, 48, and their three-year-old son, Sid.
Kelly had previously revealed she organised the matching pyjamas herself, hoping to create a comforting, shared experience as the family navigated their first Christmas without Ozzy.
Although Jack Osbourne did not appear in the photograph, his reflections on his father’s famously anti-Christmas stance have resurfaced in recent weeks.
Speaking during his time on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, Jack Osbourne recalled that festive enthusiasm was never Ozzy’s strong suit.
He said: ‘He would always be like, “We always buy gifts for people I don’t even like. Why are spending money on people I don’t know and don’t like?”
‘He wasn’t mean on Christmas. He just wasn’t dressing up as Santa. He was more like Ebenezer Scrooge, but not in the tight way. He was more like, “Meh. Who gives a s**t?”.’
Despite Ozzy’s long-standing aversion to Christmas, this year’s gathering carried its own meaning.
Kelly had previously spoken about her hope for a ‘proper English Christmas,’ complete with crackers, home cooking and watching the King’s speech.
‘They don’t even have crackers in LA. You’ve got to go to the (specialty shop) World Market to get them, and they’re not even the best ones,’ she told The Sun.
‘So we will have crackers and all watch the King’s speech. On the day, there’s going to be 14 of us and I ordered everyone that’s with us a pair of matching pyjamas to wear.
Kelly explained that Jack, who arrived back from Australia earlier this month following his stint on I’m A Celebrity, will spend Christmas in LA with his pregnant wife Aree Gearhart and their daughter Maple.
She added that Sharon will fly out to be with him two days after Christmas.
Kelly concluded: ‘I just want to get through Christmas without crying.’
Ozzy passed away from heart failure on July 22, just weeks after stepping on stage for an emotional farewell performance with his bandmates in his hometown.
In their matching pyjamas, the Osbournes tried to put on a brave face during their first Christmas without Ozzy.
