Kelly Osbourne in shock SPLIT from fiancé Sid Wilson just seven months after he proposed at her late father Ozzy's final concert Kelly Osbourne has ended her engagement to fiancé Sid Wilson, marking a painful chapter in her life following the death of her father, Ozzy Osbourne. The split, confirmed by insiders, occurred just seven months after Wilson proposed to her at her late father’s final concert with Black Sabbath in Birmingham last July. The couple, who had been together for 27 years, had been living on a farm in Iowa and welcomed their son, Sidney, in 2023. Sources close to Osbourne revealed that the decision to call off the engagement was difficult but necessary. They described the relationship as facing challenges for some time, with both parties striving to maintain stability for their child. “Kelly and Sid have decided to call off their engagement,” one insider told the Daily Mail. “Kelly has been struggling following the loss of her father. The grieving process has been incredibly difficult, and she’s been doing everything she can to cope.” The proposal took place backstage at the Black Sabbath concert, where Wilson presented Osbourne with a large diamond ring in front of her family, including Ozzy, her mother Sharon, and her brother Jack. Osbourne later expressed surprise at the moment, stating she had “no clue” the proposal was coming. The couple had previously shared a heartfelt Valentine’s Day post in 2022, captioning a photo of their kiss with “After 23 years of friendship, I can’t believe where we have ended up.” Since Ozzy’s passing in July 2025, Osbourne has faced intense online criticism, with fans questioning her physical appearance and wellbeing. She addressed trolls on Instagram after the BRITs Awards, where her father was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award.#birmingham #ozzy_osbourne #kelly_osbourne #black_sabbath #sid_wilson
Peaky Blinders, The Immortal Man, film review: Tommy Shelby’s daftest mission yet Tommy Shelby’s son Duke, played by Barry Keoghan, takes the reins of the Peaky Blinders with unrelenting violence in the latest film adaptation of the BBC series. The film, a spin-off of the long-running drama, thrusts the iconic gangster into a World War II setting, where he reluctantly joins forces with British intelligence to combat Nazi operatives. While the premise offers a grandiose twist on Shelby’s character, the execution feels uneven, leaving the franchise’s legacy in question. The story unfolds in 1940, 22 years after Shelby’s return from the Great War and seven years after his dramatic exit from the Peaky Blinders in the final season of the TV series. Now in exile, Shelby wanders the moors of England, haunted by the deaths of his daughter Ruby and brother Arthur. His only companion is Johnny Doggs, a loyal but weary associate. Meanwhile, in Birmingham, his estranged son Duke has taken control of the gang, operating with ruthless efficiency and little regard for morality. Shelby’s sister, Ada, a Labour MP, attempts to draw him back into the fray, appealing to his sense of duty with lines like, “You have family who are not ghosts.” Shelby’s response—“I was not a father, I was a form of government”—captures his complex relationship with power and legacy. The film’s plot centers on Shelby’s reluctant return to action when Nazi sympathizer Beckett, portrayed by Tim Roth, recruits Duke to assist in a counterfeit currency operation. Roth’s performance brings a charismatic menace to the role, while Keoghan’s Duke struggles to balance the character’s physicality with emotional depth. Despite his charm, Duke remains a two-dimensional hoodlum, lacking the gravitas to justify his role as a potential heir to Shelby’s legacy.#barry_keoghan #cillian_murphy #peaky_blinders #birmingham #tim_roth
Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man - Cillian Murphy Hails 'Humbling' Fan Passion Cillian Murphy has described the overwhelming fan support for Peaky Blinders as "deeply humbling," reflecting on the journey of the BBC series and its adaptation into a feature film. The actor, who reprises his iconic role as Tommy Shelby, shared these thoughts during an interview with BBC One’s Breakfast ahead of the film’s premiere in Birmingham. Murphy emphasized how the show’s rise to cultural phenomenon was driven by its audience, noting that the initial lack of promotion led to its unexpected success. "It’s a wonderfully humbling thing to know that these fans have such an investment in the characters," he said, adding that the film serves as a return on their "investment." The film, Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, marks Murphy’s return to the role 13 years after the series debuted. It follows Tommy Shelby as he navigates the challenges of World War Two, with the story set in 1940. Murphy explained that Shelby, now isolated and haunted by his past, retreats from society, only to be drawn back into his criminal world by his son, Duke, portrayed by Barry Keoghan. The film also features Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Roth, and Stephen Graham, with Knight praising the cast as "the cream of the crop" and highlighting the show’s magnetic pull. Steven Knight, the series’ creator, expressed gratitude for the fans’ loyalty, calling their enthusiasm "an enormous amount of energy and confidence" that fueled the project. He noted the spontaneous nature of their dedication, from tattoos to fan events, which he attributed to the show’s organic growth rather than marketing efforts. Knight also revealed the film’s dual release strategy, aiming to give fans a chance to experience the story together in cinemas before its Netflix debut on 20 March.#cillian_murphy #peaky_blinders #steven_knight #birmingham #barry_keoghan
