Kelly Osbourne said she has turned to falconry to cope with the “sadness and grief” following the death of her father, Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne.

The 40-year-old former reality star posted Instagram Stories Monday showing herself smiling with an owl perched on her finger and sharing videos of other birds flying toward her outstretched arm. “I never thought I would find my smile again through falconry but I did,” she wrote, adding, “I absolutely love being with the birds!”

Osbourne’s posts come about a month after her father’s death in July. Ozzy Osbourne, who had Parkinson’s disease, died of a heart attack at 76. Kelly Osbourne has described his passing as the “hardest” experience of her life, and she posted an Instagram statement in early August saying, “Grief is a strange thing — it sneaks up on you in waves.” She added, “I will not be OK for a while — but knowing my family are not alone in our pain makes a difference.”

In the recent social-media upload, Kelly could be heard laughing and smiling as birds landed on or flew toward her arm. She told followers the birds “truly [make her] happy” and that they helped her “smile again.” The posts included multiple short videos and a still shot showing her engaging with the birds while appearing upbeat.

Kelly Osbourne honored her father publicly at his funeral in August, wearing blue-tinted glasses that echoed Ozzy’s signature look. In her August Instagram statement she said she was holding “on tight to the love, the light, and the legacy left behind.”

The former “Osbournes” star has also responded to recent comments from others about her father. During a recent WWE broadcast in Birmingham, wrestler Becky Lynch quipped, “The only good thing that came out of here died a month ago,” and made a separate comment referencing Ozzy’s move to Los Angeles. Kelly replied on social media, calling the remark “disrespectful” and labeling the speaker a “dirtbag.”

Osbourne has been publicly candid about her mourning process since her father’s death, sharing both private reflections and moments of levity on social media. Her recent falconry posts mark a visible step in how she is spending time as she continues to grieve and remember her father’s life and career.
