In a series of posts on her Instagram story, which have since been deleted, she demanded child support for their three-year-old son and opened up about the difficulties of co-parenting.
“Strange how the loudest defense of the guilty is rarely innocence… It’s distraction,” she wrote. “When the mask slips, they don’t face the mirror they throw it at someone else. I also heard that when you break a mirror you get 7 years bad luck! Or is that just karma? This is why I always take accountability! As they say, some are sicker than others.”
Osbourne added: “Wake the fuck up take some responsibility I will not take your shit anymore! I’m done. I want to be happy and I have a beautiful son to raise. Leave me alone. Let me heal. I can’t protect you from yourself anymore. Also while I’m at it can I have my dogs back and all my possessions. Oh yeah and maybe some child support?”
In a separate post, she said: “My job is to protect my kids. Not your feelings. Not your expectations. Not judgements I didn’t ask for. My responsibility is to protect their wellbeing. Their nervous systems. Their emotional safety. I will choose them every single time. Over anyone. Over anything.”
Another post added: “My son’s little heart once beat right beside mine. So trust me when I say… I will protect it at all costs”.

NME has reached out for comment from Osbourne and Wilson.
The couple started dating in 2022 and welcomed their son Sidney later that year, before they got engaged in July 2025 backstage at Black Sabbath‘s final show ever at the massive Back To The Beginning concert in Birmingham.
They reportedly called off the engagement seven months later in March 2026, according to People.
It comes as TMZ claimed that Wilson, who is Slipknot’s longtime DJ and keyboardist, had been sacked by the band – although no official word has come from Slipknot as yet.
But hours after the report, guitarist Jim Root seemingly responded to the rumours, pointedly telling fans: “Don’t believe everything you read.”
It added: “Stop. Think. Take a breath. Sit with it for awhile. Maybe. Just maybe even wait until there’s more information.”
