Sid Wilson Proposes to Kelly Osbourne Backstage at Final Black Sabbath Show in Birmingham. In a heartwarming moment filled with love and legacy, Slipknot’s Sid Wilson proposed to longtime girlfriend Kelly Osbourne during one of the most iconic nights in rock history — the final Black Sabbath concert in Birmingham, England. The proposal took place on Saturday, July 5th, backstage at the “Back to Beginning” show, which also featured the farewell performance of Ozzy Osbourne and his legendary band, Black Sabbath.
The private and emotional proposal reportedly occurred just moments before Kelly’s father, Ozzy, took the stage for what was billed as his final live appearance with Black Sabbath. The event, held in their hometown of Birmingham, was a full-circle moment for the Prince of Darkness and now an unforgettable chapter in Kelly’s own story.

Sources close to the couple revealed that the atmosphere backstage was filled with family, friends, and decades of musical memories. Amid the electric energy and anticipation, Sid Wilson dropped to one knee and proposed to Kelly, who joyfully accepted. The couple, who confirmed their relationship in early 2022, have shared a deep connection rooted in music, mutual respect, and a shared journey through fame and family.
Fans across social media have been celebrating the news, calling the moment “a perfect rock ‘n’ roll love story.” Kelly, a television personality and fashion icon, has long been in the public eye, but this intimate proposal added a deeply personal layer to the night’s already emotional tone.
This surprise engagement also symbolically bridged two powerful worlds of rock — Slipknot’s thunderous aggression and Black Sabbath’s iconic legacy — through the union of two of their most recognizable figures.
As Ozzy closed out his career on a high note, it appears that a new chapter is just beginning for Kelly and Sid. While neither has made an official public statement yet, fans are already speculating about wedding plans, and many are applauding Sid’s choice to pop the question on a night that meant so much to the Osbourne family.
One thing’s for sure July 5, 2025, was gone down not just as the end of an era for heavy metal, but also as the start of something beautiful for one of rock’s most beloved couples.
