Nearly a year after losing her father, Ozzy Osbourne, Kelly Osbourne has honored his memory with a new tattoo — and she did it 443 feet above London.
The 41-year-old became one of the first people to get inked at the London Eye’s new rotating tattoo studio on Monday, June 29.
For her latest addition, Kelly, who is already covered in tats, paid tribute to the rock legend with a design of his signature round glasses on her thigh.
Sky-high tattoo
Photos from the rotating tattoo parlor show Kelly dressed in a white-and-red polka-dot mini dress with puffed sleeves.
Despite being high above the city, she seemed completely relaxed as the tattoo artist got to work.
Once the piece was finished, Kelly couldn’t hide her excitement. She smiled widely while posing with the artist behind the design.
London Eye’s new studio
Alongside the professional photos taken during the session, Kelly was also photographed using a Polaroid camera. Underneath one image, she thanked her tattoo artist, writing, “Thank you! There is no one else I would trust with this. I [heart] you, Kelly.”
The unconventional experience came about through a collaboration between the London Eye and The London Social tattoo studio, which transformed one of the capsules into a floating tattoo parlor.
The setup offers tattoo enthusiasts the chance to add to their collections while taking in views of the capital. Although the experience was open to the public, all 32 available slots were quickly booked.
Life after losing her father
The tattoo comes almost a year after the death of Kelly’s father. Ozzy, who fronted Black Sabbath, died at 76 on July 22, 2025.
The loss has been difficult for Kelly, who shared an emotional Father’s Day tribute earlier this year. “Dad, I still find myself looking for you in ordinary moments, the advice I need, the joke I want to tell, the victory I wish you could see,” she wrote.
In the same post, she said it had been an “honor” to have known her father, adding that she would “never stop” missing him.
Parkinson’s diagnosis
Ozzy’s death was announced last July in a family statement signed by his wife, Sharon Osbourne, and their three children — Kelly, Jack Osbourne and Aimee Osbourne — as well as his older son, Louis Osbourne, from his marriage to Thelma Riley.
“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” the statement read. “He was with his family and surrounded by love.”
Ozzy was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2019. A year later, he revealed the diagnosis during a joint interview with Sharon on Good Morning America, describing it as “terribly challenging.”
“It’s PRKN 2,” Sharon explained at the time. “There’s so many different types of Parkinson’s. It’s not a death sentence by any stretch of the imagination, but it does affect certain nerves in your body. And it’s — it’s like you have a good day, a good day, and then a really bad day.”
Ozzy’s death certificate, which was released two weeks after his death, lists the official cause of death as “(a) Out of hospital cardiac arrest (b) Acute myocardial infarction (c) Coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease with autonomic dysfunction (Joint Causes).”
