Kelly Osbourne Engaged During Father Ozzy Osbourne’s Concert at Villa Park, Birmingham
*Birmingham, UK – July 6, 2025* — In a night filled with heavy metal magic, family ties, and heartwarming surprises, Kelly Osbourne, daughter of legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, said “yes” to a surprise proposal during her father’s emotional farewell concert at Villa Park in Birmingham.
The concert, billed as Ozzy Osbourne’s final UK performance, was already shaping up to be a historic event. With tens of thousands of fans gathered in the city where Black Sabbath was born, the atmosphere was electric. But the night reached an unforgettable peak when Kelly’s longtime partner, British producer and DJ Luke Harding, took to the stage mid-set and dropped to one knee.
The moment unfolded just after Ozzy performed “Mama, I’m Coming Home,” a sentimental favorite that has long resonated with the Osbourne family. As the final chords faded, the lights dimmed, and a spotlight suddenly illuminated the side of the stage, revealing Kelly and Luke.
With the crowd watching and Ozzy himself momentarily stunned, Luke pulled a small velvet box from his jacket and addressed Kelly with a heartfelt declaration of love.
“You’ve stood by me, through the chaos and calm,” Luke said, his voice trembling over the microphone. “And there’s no more fitting place than this stage — the heart of your family’s legacy — to ask you: Will you marry me?”
Tears streamed down Kelly’s face as she nodded and embraced him, whispering an emotional “yes.” The crowd erupted into cheers, with some fans chanting “Kelly! Kelly!” while others waved signs and phones in the air, capturing the unforgettable moment.
Ozzy, visibly moved, walked over to the couple, hugging them both as the band behind him launched into a triumphant instrumental version of “Iron Man.” “That’s my girl!” Ozzy shouted to the crowd, clearly beaming with pride.
Sharon Osbourne, Kelly’s mother and longtime family matriarch, later joined them on stage, wiping tears from her eyes and waving to fans. “This family has been through so much,” Sharon said. “But tonight, we’re celebrating love, legacy, and new beginnings. Thank you, Birmingham. Thank you, all.”
The engagement capped off a concert that doubled as both a farewell to Ozzy’s live performing days and a deeply personal tribute to the city that launched his career. Featuring special guest appearances from original Black Sabbath members Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, the concert was a love letter to fans of the genre that Ozzy helped define.
Kelly, 40, has been in a relationship with Harding for nearly three years, having first met at a music awards event in London. Friends and family describe their relationship as “grounded” and “genuinely joyful,” with both sharing a deep love for music and a quiet life away from the public eye.
Following the proposal, Kelly shared a photo on social media of her ring — a vintage emerald-cut diamond set in platinum — captioned: “Forever starts where it all began. Yes a thousand times.”
As fireworks lit up the Birmingham skyline and Black Sabbath’s legacy echoed through Villa Park one last time, fans left with more than just memories of a musical milestone — they witnessed a new chapter in the Osbourne saga, filled with love, hope, and heavy metal.
