“How can you navigate something so cruel when you’re so sick?” she told Hello magazine.
“I’m getting a lot better. I’ve got all the help I need and I’m grateful for the support I have in my life.”
Kelly said she had an incredible team in her corner, and they were not just her friends.
“Because what you’ll find when you’re grieving is that people don’t know how to handle it, and you do lose a lot of friends,” she said
“But the ones who stick around are the real ones.”

“I’m not going to be fixed in a day. I’m not going to be fixed on one therapy session. This is a lifetime of work I’ve got to do and continue to do for the rest of my life.”
Osbourne added that her current mindset was “a lot more healthy” as she got to know herself in this new way.
Kelly, who is also in therapy, said it had been interesting to discover things about herself through this process too.

“To the people who keep thinking they’re being funny and mean by writing comments like, ‘Are you ill, or ‘Get off Ozempic,’ or ‘You don’t look right’ … to all those people, f–k off,” she said
“My dad just died, and I’m doing the best that I can.”
Kelly has repeatedly denied Ozempic use.
Her mum, Sharon Osbourne, doubled down and defended her daughter during the same interview.
