Jack Osbourne and his wife, Aree Osbourne, announced the arrival of their daughter and shared her full name, a touching tribute to her late grandfather and metal legend, Ozzy Osbourne.

In a joint Instagram post on Wednesday, the couple shared a black-and-white video of their baby girl with a card noting that she was born on March 5, 2026, and weighed 7 pounds and 12 ounces. In the caption, they wrote: “Introducing Ozzy Matilda Osbourne.”


News of her birth comes nearly eight months after the Black Sabbath frontman’s death. Ozzy died at the age of 76 of a heart attack on July 22, 2025, and suffered from coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease. Weeks before his death, Ozzy was able to give his fans a bittersweet final goodbye with a hometown Back to the Beginning concert alongside members of Black Sabbath at Villa Park in Birmingham.


Jack shared a tribute on Instagram to his father last August. “He was so many things to so many people, but I was so lucky and blessed to be apart of a very small group that got to call him ‘Dad,’” Jack wrote. “My heart is full of so much sadness and sorrow, but also so much love and gratitude. I got 14,501 days with that man and I know that is such a blessing.”

Kelly Osbourne, the rock legend’s daughter, also posted a remembrance to their father and referenced the opening line to “Changes,” a Black Sabbath favorite released in 1972. “I feel unhappy,” she wrote in a social media post. “I am so sad. I lost the best friend I ever had.”

Ozzy Matilda is Jack and Aree’s second child. Their first, Maple Artemis Osbourne, was born on July 9, 2022. Jack is also a father to three daughters — Pearl Clementine Osbourne, 13, Andy Rose Osbourne, 10, and Minnie Theodora Osbourne, 7 — with his ex-wife, Lisa Stelly.

Hunter Biden Talks Crack, Family, and the Owl That Saved His Life

I didn’t know what to expect when I met Hunter Biden. Would he have the Secret Service with him? Would he be cold? Would he be an asshole?

Biden, who is in recovery, was coming on my podcast, Dopey: On the Dark Comedy of Drug Addiction. He is exactly the kind of person I like to have on the show. When I started it in 2016 with my friend Chris O’Connor, our plan was to create a podcast all around the worst things we had ever done in active addiction. Chris wound up relapsing and tragically dying from a fentanyl overdose in 2018. I kept the show going, still focused on the insanity of addiction and ways that we can overcome it.

The Great Flock Hunt

Campus security is on to us. For the past 30 minutes, I’ve been doing laps around a satellite campus of a small Virginia university in the back of a conspicuously rigged-out Toyota Tacoma, a fat disc-shaped antenna magnet-clamped onto its roof and connected to a thick tube of cables that run into a black box by my side. In the front seat are two professional security researchers – call them hackers, if you want – who go by their online pseudonyms Koko and Hedge. Koko and Hedge’s work is all above board, but they still ask me to keep their legal names off the internet. In return, they agree to take me hunting for the cybersecurity world’s greatest enemy: the AI-powered mass-surveillance cameras that have popped up all over America.

Lionel Messi Announces Retirement From International Football

Argentina will have to say goodbye to a legend, as Lionel Messi has announced his retirement from international football, closing the book on one of the most extraordinary careers in the history of the sport. After more than two decades wearing Argentina’s colours, Messi will no longer represent his country on the international stage.

The decision marks the end of a career that took Messi from a teenage prodigy to Argentina’s most important player and, ultimately, its captain and World Cup-winning icon. He leaves the national team as its all-time leading scorer and appearance-maker, having scored 125 goals in 207 appearances.

This Private Chef Tells It Like It Is. Now, She’s Sharing Her Kitchen Secrets

Olivia Tiedemann gets flipped off everywhere she goes. It happens at parties, in grocery stores, even when she’s walking down the street. But it’s no sign of disrespect. The one-finger salute is her biggest calling card — a profane habit that’s built her a social media fandom 5 million followers deep.

“One time, I was walking late at night and somebody honked at me and gave me the finger. I was like ‘Yep!’ and kept walking,” Tiedemann, 29, says. “It’s how we say hello to each other at this point.”
