Kelly Osbourne Says Falconry Helped Her ‘Find Her Smile Again’ After Ozzy’s Death

The post comes weeks after records confirmed the 76-year-old rocker died of a heart attack complicated by Parkinson’s disease.

Overview

  • Kelly Osbourne shared on Instagram on Sept. 8 that taking up falconry has brought her unexpected happiness during her bereavement.
  • She posted a photo smiling with an owl and videos of trained birds flying to her gloved hand, writing that she “absolutely love[s] being with the birds.”
  • In early August she thanked supporters and described grief “in waves,” saying she would not be okay for a while but was holding on to her father’s legacy.
  • Ozzy Osbourne died on July 22 at 76; his death certificate lists acute myocardial infarction and out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, with coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s with autonomic dysfunction as joint causes.
