Jack Osbourne’s touching message to mum Sharon on first birthday after Ozzy’s death

Jack Osbourne sent his mum Sharon Osbourne a sweet message as she celebrated her first birthday without husband Ozzy. The close-knit family are rallying around Mrs O following the death of music legend Ozzy Osbourne at the age of 76 in July.

Jack took to his Instagram Stories to post a slow motion video of his mum flying owls and captioned it: “Happy birthday mum.” He also added a white love heart emoji while tagging the 73 year old in the post.

Jack’s sweet message comes as he recently admitted his mum is “not ok”. The 39-year-old reality TV star confessed Sharon isn’t coping well with the loss of the love of her life. Sharon’s beloved husband Ozzy Osbourne, who she was married for for 43 years, died earlier this year.

During an appearance on Good Morning America, presenters asked Jack was asked how his mum Sharon was doing. He candidly admitted: “You know, when people have been asking me that question, I say, ‘She’s OK, but she’s not OK’.”

However, he revealed the huge support the family has received from the public following the death of his dad has made a huge impact for their grief. “None of us expected it to be like this, with that outpour of love,” he said.

“Every child sits there and kind of has this thought about one day that parents won’t be there, and what will that be like. It’s just a part of being human. We just didn’t think of it. It was a different weight to it, you know?”

It comes after Sharon confessed she is still trying to find her footing in her life as a widow. Appearing alongside daughter Kelly in a video weeks after Ozzy’s death, she said: “I’m still having trouble finding the words to express how grateful I am for the overwhelming love and support you’ve shown on social media.

“Your comments, posts, and tributes have brought me more comfort than you know. None of it has gone unnoticed, in fact, it’s carried me through many nights. Though I’m still finding my footing.”

Recently, fans of the family were left in tears by Ozzy’s birthday gesture in a re-surfaced clip. The footage shared on Facebook has gone viral after showing the Prince of Darkness’ touching gift.

While the Black Sabbath star always made his feelings for Sharon clear, a spontaneous moment has tugged on the heartstrings of their fans. During a talk show appearance by Sharon, one of her husband’s hit songs started playing.

Much to her surprise, Ozzy walked onto the show with a bouquet of flowers for her. The star was genuinely taken aback to see her husband appearing in front of her.

The resurfaced clip was accompanied by a statement that suggested it showed a “softer” side to rocker. It read: “Ozzy Osbourne surprises his beloved Sharon on her birthday during a women’s talk show – a gesture that showed the softer side of the Prince of Darkness.”

And fans were quick to share their emotion on the post, with many saying it had moved them to tears. One user admitted: “She loves him so much and he loves her so much. I hope everyone finds this kind of love.”

Victoria Beckham’s fashion business lost £70k on plants as humiliating blunders exposed

Victoria Beckham spent a ‘mind-blowing’ amount of money on plants for her office as she details her humiliating spending blunders and admits she ‘lost her way’ in new documentary

Victoria Beckham’s new Netflix documentary has revealed the Spice Girls singer’s fashion business lost £70k on plants as she details how people were ‘scared to say no’. The new series comes after Victoria featured in her husband’s 2022 docu-series, which left fans wanting more from Victoria on their screens.

In an honest and open discussion, Victoria, 51, took accountability for her spending and admitted she had ‘lost her way’ and needed to ‘change’.

Victoria’s business partner David Belhassen, revealed the singer turned fashion icon was spending £70,000 a year on plants for the office, and a further £15,000 a year to have them watered.

Victoria candidly said on the show: “The waste was mind-blowing. I was flying chairs from one side of the world to the other. I think part of the reason is some people were scared to say no. If I am honest, it is the power of celebrity. People thought I wasn’t used to hearing no.”

Reflecting on the difficult time, the mum of four took full accountability and admitted she was the one who needed to change. She said: “I will hold my hands up and be accountable. I was in debt, there was a lot I had to change. I realised I had lost my way. I needed to put Victoria Beckham back into Victoria Beckham.”

Things turned around when her business partner, David Belhassen, joined the company and took a look at the books. He said: “For years, she had people telling her what she wanted to hear. I remember one of the expenses was the office plants, because she loves plants, and it was costing like 70,000 a year. And then there was someone who was coming to water the plants for 15,000 a year, and that’s only the beginning.”

He added: “So I went to her, and I decided to just tell the truth exactly the way it is, and I didn’t know how she would react. And I said, Victoria, we have to change everything, restructure the business, and that’s going to be painful. And when I finished, she just listened, and she left a little silence.”

The world premiere of her new Netflix series took place on Wednesday 8 October and the former Spice Girl and fashion designer was the guest of honour for the event at the Curzon Mayfair cinema.

She was accompanied by husband David, 50, and the power couple arrived looking like a million bucks as they held hands for photos. Victoria stunned in a plunging white dress with a matching blazer draped over her shoulders.

David cut a smart figure in a black suit as he supported his wife at the event. Their children Cruz, Romeo and Harper (and even Cruz’s girlfriend, Jackie Apostel) were all in attendance, wearing variations of black and white.

Victoria Beckham says documentary is like ‘a year’s therapy’ after eating disorder admission

The former Spice Girl star turned fashion mogul Victoria Beckham looks back over the ups and downs of life in a three part series for Netflix, following her husband’s docuseries

Victoria Beckham has claimed making her new Netflix documentary is the equivalent to “a year of therapy” after she spoke about her past demons for the first time.

The former Spice Girl and fashion designer opens up about her eating disorder and business failures for the cameras. And far from finding it traumatic, Victoria believes the process has changed her for the better.

Victoria, 51, said: “When I did my master interviews, of which there were quite a few, it was the first time I’ve ever been forced to look back. Sometimes it made me smile, sometimes it was frustrating because I’m trying to remember things that maybe I’ve blocked out, there’s a few triggers along the way. This has been like a year’s therapy for me. I feel that I went into this process calling myself a control freak and I’ve come out the other end a reformed control freak. I haven’t had the control with this documentary that I have with most elements of my life, and I feel much more content coming out the other end.”

Victoria also said in the interview to accompany the Netflix documentary that she hopes her story can inspire others.

She said: “When I reflected on not just the Spice Girls, but my family growing up, my journey from when I was very small, I really was an underdog. If my story can inspire anyone along the way, to really not take no for an answer, to believe in themselves, not be afraid of the hard work, understand that you’re going to get knocked.

“I’ve been knocked so many times and I just bounce back up again and that doesn’t come without its challenges on you physically, mentally, emotionally, so I’d say I’ve been very honest about all of these things.”

The three part Netflix series sees Victoria and husband David discuss some areas of her life for the first time in depth.

Looking back to one tough time, Victoria said: “I really started to doubt myself and not like myself, you know, and because I let it affect me, I didn’t know what I saw when I looked in the mirror.

“You lose all sense of reality. I was just very critical of myself. I didn’t like what I saw. I’ve been everything from porky posh to skinny posh. I mean, you know, it’s been a lot, and that’s hard. I had no control over what was being written about me, pictures that were being taken.

“And I suppose I wanted to control that, you know, I could control it with the clothing. I could control my weight, and I was controlling it in an incredibly unhealthy way. When you have an eating disorder, you become very good at lying.

“And I was never honest about it with my parents. I never talked about it publicly. It really affects you when you’re being told constantly you’re not good enough, and I suppose that’s been with me my whole life.”

The three part series follows Victoria from the teenager who restyled her school uniform, to the Spice Girl who fought to be accepted by a notoriously demanding fashion industry.

Sharon Osbourne fans in tears by Ozzy birthday gesture in re-surfaced clip

A video has resurfaced online showing Ozzy Osbourne surprising his wife Sharon Osbourne on her birthday, and fans were left in tears by the gesture which has resurfaced on Facebook

A touching gesture from Ozzy Osbourne to his wife Sharon has left fans emotional after a resurfaced video went viral online. The Black Sabbath had always made his love for Sharon clear, and a surprise on her birthday was a real treat. Ozzy, who sadly passed away at the age of 76 on 22 July this year, would always charm fans with his appearances.

The spontaneous moment occurred on a talk show that Sharon was attending, when suddenly one of her husband’s hit songs started playing. The surprise saw Ozzy walk onto the show with a bouquet of flowers for Sharon, who was genuinely taken aback to see the Iron Man songwriter.

Fans were thrilled by the appearance, and even years after the touching moment, viewers are saying it encapsulates the couple’s marriage.

A video has now resurfaced as Sharon celebrates her 73rd birthday today (October 9). It also included a statement suggesting it showed a “softer” side to the Prince of Darkness.

It reads: “Ozzy Osbourne surprises his beloved Sharon on her birthday during a women’s talk show – a gesture that showed the softer side of the Prince of Darkness.”

Fans were moved to tears by the video, with the poignant clip recently shared online. One person wrote: “Seen this 100 times and I still cry.”

Another added: “She loves him so much and he lovers her so much. I hope everyone finds this kind of love.” Others were left thrilled by Sharon Osbourne’s reaction to the surprise appearance of her husband, saying it is “priceless”.

One person wrote: “Her face when Ozzy’s music hit. Pure perfection. Ozzy is the goat.”

Another added: “This never gets old! He adored her! It showed in the way he treated her. I know they had rough times but he adored her!”.

A third shared: “I love the look on her face. So much love in just her expression. My heart aches for her right now.”

However, Osbourne’s gentler nature wasn’t extended to fellow musicians, with the Prince of Darkness revealing one respected artist was “too cold”.

During the early ’80s, Yngwie Malmsteen was already making waves with his lightning-fast playing, pinpoint accuracy, and scale-heavy solo performances. Whilst he possessed exceptional technical abilities, Osbourne felt there could be too much of a good thing.

“There are guys who’ll go wingly-wangly up and down the fretboard, and some have emotions and others don’t,” he told Guitar World Magazine.

“This Yngwie Malmsteen guy must have the capability to do some amazing things, but it’s too cold, it’s too much for the mind to take in.”

Ron Dean dead: Risky Business and The Breakfast Club star dies as wife pays tribute

Ron Dean has died at the age of 87. The actor – who starred in the likes of Risky Business and The Breakfast Club – peacefully died alongside his family and loved ones.

The actor’s partner Maggie Neff shared: “He passed at exactly 4pm, after his beloved sisters had said their goodbyes. He hung on like a warrior to say goodbye to his little sisters. Then we were alone, and in my arms, I held his hand, and he trusted me when I told him that it was alright to let go. What an honour!”

Ron was born in Chicago in 1938 and he became well known for his early portrayals of police officers and other military officials. In one of his key roles, he played a detective alongside Tom Cruise in Risky Business.

He also had a key role in The Breakfast Club, where he played Mr Clark, the father of Andy Clark – which was portrayed by actor Emilio Estevez. The movie was a hit of the 1980s.

Ron also had roles in movies including Light of Day, The Fugitive, The Client as well as a part in Hollywood blockbuster The Dark Knight. He appeared in various TV shows including Frasier, Murder, She Wrote, ER, The West Wing and Cold Case.

Maggie described her and Ron as “kindred spirits”. She told People: “Ron and I were/are kindred spirits. Our connection was instantaneous and remained so for nearly four decades.

“The love between us was unconditional and permanent. We locked horns many times over the years, but there was never any question that we would be there for each other in our hour of need. And we always were.”

She added: “It’s hard to capture what an extraordinary human being Ron was. One glamorous woman friend of Ron’s once told me that she’d rather grab a hot dog with Ron Dean than have a fancy dinner with some rich bloke. I have always felt the same way.”

Director Andrew Davis, who worked with Dean on The Fugitive added in a statement to Deadline: “Ron Dean was my dear friend and a tremendous actor. He was the essence of what Chicago talent represented. Having a very troubled youth Ron turned his life around to have a wonderful career as a loving, decent human being and respected talent.”

Tributes have also flooded in from movie fans, with one writing: “He was a Chicago cop in every single movie that included Chicago cops for about 40 years.” Another added: “Very good in The Fugitive and The Dark Knight.”

A third shared: “RIP Ron Dean. You will be remembered for that role which only you could have done in The Breakfast Club.”

The spin-off of the hit BBC show sees a stellar line-up of 19 celebrities attempt to win £100,000 for their chosen charity by either quietly eliminating the competition as a Traitor or weeding out the murderers as a Faithful.

Amidst the drama that the program promises viewers, some fans will be just as eager to see the season of Claudia’s autumnal style inspo start with a bang, as she donned her first iconic look of the series.

The Celebrity Traitors kicked off yesterday evening with camp chaos as host Claudia Winkleman picked the first-ever famous Traitors to take part in the UK show.

Claudia’s stylist, Sinead McKeefry, took to Instagram to reveal to fans where they too could shop for Claudia’s awe-inspiring outfit. Though the coat, which retails for over £2000, may be outside of the average fan’s budget, Claudia’s boots come with a relatively affordable price tag. And right now, those keen to emulate Claudia’s ensemble can still pick up her exact boots in most sizes.

Claudia’s Wellington Boots from Hunter are the perfect blend of practical and stylish, ensuring a chic finish to any outfit as you brave the outdoors this autumn and winter.

Boasting a slimmer fit to flatter the leg, and accent detailing that gives these boots a luxury look, the Refined Tall Riding Wellington boot features a tailored topline and is constructed from fewer rubber layers for a more lightweight feel.

Handcrafted and fully waterproof, Claudia’s equestrian boot features a matte two-tone finish that seamlessly blends practicality and style for a chic riding look.

Still in stock in sizes 3 to 9, shoppers who want to bag themselves a pair of Claudia’s covetable boots may want to hurry, as there’s no telling how long your size will last. These boots retail for £145 on Hunter’s own website.

For those seeking more budget-friendly alternatives and are willing to compromise on the two-tone design, we’ve found several other riding boots worth considering.
