Kelly Osbourne makes surprise London Fashion Week debut

Kelly Osbourne made a surprise appearance at London Fashion Week 2026, taking part in a runway show for designer John Richmond and later sharing an emotional message of gratitude.

The television personality opened Richmond’s show over the weekend in a striking customised outfit. She wore a shimmering gold sleeveless gown for the appearance and later showcased another look featuring a white halter-style top, a black skirt with a slit, black heels and a bow tie.

Kelly also wore a bat-inspired necklace, seemingly paying tribute to her late father, legendary Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne. The musician famously made headlines decades ago after biting the head off a live bat during a stage performance.

Following the show on Saturday, September 19, Kelly took to Instagram to thank Richmond for inviting her and allowing her to wear the specially designed outfit. She described the experience as enjoyable and expressed her appreciation for the designer.

The runway appearance comes as Kelly continues to navigate the loss of her father, who died in July at the age of 76. In a recent interview, she opened up about the impact of his death and said that she has changed since losing him.

Kelly said she has been trying to take life one day at a time while gradually rebuilding her life following what she described as an extremely difficult period.

She has also previously spoken publicly about struggles following her father’s death, including challenges with her sobriety and emotional wellbeing. Her recent public appearance at London Fashion Week marks a notable return to the spotlight as she continues to cope with the loss.
