Kelly Osbourne appeared to hit out at her ex-fiancé Sid Wilson after he was kicked out of his band Slipknot.
The television personality, 41, who split from Sid, 49, in March and shares son Sidney, three, with the keyboardist, seemingly made reference to his sudden exit.
While it is currently unclear what the reason behind Sid’s departure is, Kelly shared an impassioned Instagram post, where she wrote: ‘I can’t protect you from yourself anymore.’
She said: ‘Wake the f**k up and take some responsibility. I will not take your s**t anymore. I’m done.
‘I want to be happy and I have a beautiful son to raise. Leave me alone. Let me heal.’
Kelly went on to say: ‘Strange how the loudest defence of the guilty is rarely innocence… It’s distraction. When the mask slips, they don’t face the mirror they throw it at someone else. I heard that when you break a mirror you get seven years bad luck. Or is that karma?

‘This is why I always take accountability. As they say some are sicker than others’
In another Story, Kelly wrote ‘Also while I’m at it can I have my dogs back and all my possessions Oh yeah and maybe some child support?’
The Daily Mail has contacted Sid’s representatives for comment.
Kelly also shared some quotes and a poem about ‘protecting my kid’.
Sid joined Slipknot in early 1998, when the band were expanding to its now-iconic nine-member lineup, as the ninth person to join.
He was apparently told on Friday he has been permanently ousted.
It has been a difficult year for Sid personally, having announced his separation from Kelly in March.
The couple quietly ended their engagement just seven months after Sid proposed to Kelly at her late father’s final concert with Black Sabbath in Birmingham in 2025.
Insiders close to the star told the Daily Mail she has endured a ‘difficult’ month, coping with the separation while continuing to focus on being the best mother she can be to their son, who is named after his father.
A source revealed: ‘Kelly and Sid have decided to call off their engagement.

‘Kelly has been struggling following the loss of her father. The grieving process has been incredibly difficult, and she’s been doing everything she can to cope.
‘In truth, she and Sid have been facing challenges in their relationship for some time, and things were not as they appeared.
‘They tried to make it work, particularly for the sake of their child, but ultimately decided that separating is the best path forward.
‘Kelly has endured a great deal over the past year. Despite everything, she remains sober and is now focusing on herself and her role as a mother moving ahead.’
The star was first introduced to Sid when Slipknot toured with Ozzfest, the music festival founded by her parents.
On Valentine’s Day 2022, she shared a post of the couple passionately kissing, captioned: ‘After 23 years of friendship, I can’t believe where we have ended up. You are my best friend, my soulmate, and I am so deeply in love with you, Sidney George Wilson.’
They welcomed their son, Sid, later that year, and the family had been living together on a farm in Iowa.
Kelly was last pictured with Sid at the Grammy Awards in February and, since then, has only made public appearances with friends or her mother, Sharon.
He proposed to Kelly backstage at the Black Sabbath show, in front of her entire family, including Ozzy, Sharon and her brother Jack, presenting her with a huge diamond ring. Kelly later said she had ‘no clue’ the moment was coming.
Slipknot’s iconic nine-member lineup that propelled the band to fame with its 1999 self-titled debut consisted of Corey Taylor, Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan, Joey Jordison, Paul Gray, Mick Thomson, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Chris Fehn and Sid.
Over the years, the band’s lineup has undergone dramatic changes. Bassist Paul Gray died from an accidental drug overdose in 2010, while drummer Joey Jordison died in his sleep in 2021 after leaving the band in 2013.
Percussionist Chris Fehn was dismissed in 2019 following a legal dispute over compensation, and keyboardist Craig Jones exited in 2023 under circumstances that have never been publicly explained.
If reports of Sid’s departure are confirmed, only vocalist Corey Taylor, percussionist Shawn ‘Clown’ Crahan, and guitarists Mick Thomson and Jim Root will remain from Slipknot’s celebrated classic lineup.
