Kelly Osbourne turned heads at a busy launch party in Manchester when she was seen spending time with tattooed model Brad North, who is 13 years her junior. The pair were photographed linking arms in the hotel lobby before heading upstairs to the new rooftop restaurant, where they spent time together in a private area — and an onlooker said they couldn’t keep their hands off each other.
The event in question was the debut night of Sister Moon, a rooftop restaurant on the 14th floor of the Treehouse Hotel, which drew a crowd of high-profile guests. The setting — think skyline views and SoCal-style launch energy transplanted to Mancunian nights — made the sighting impossible to ignore.
A representative for Osbourne was quick to issue a statement clarifying the nature of Kelly and Brad’s connection. The rep stated they are not dating, stressing the relationship is a close friendship and entirely platonic, leaving room for the usual celebrity rumor mill to debate what “close” looks like in public.
"She’s not dating Brad — they’re good friends and keeping things platonic while Kelly focuses on family and her new quieter life," a source close to Kelly told us.
Despite the rep’s line, guests at the party reported the two spent time together away from the main room and appeared affectionate. That push-and-pull between public statements and private behavior is exactly the kind of Malibu-style drama that fuels headlines.
Osbourne’s appearance with North comes months after the end of her engagement to former Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson. Osbourne and Wilson announced their split in March 2026, closing out a relationship that began in 2022 and included an engagement brought on by emotional circumstances.
Wilson proposed during Ozzy Osbourne’s farewell concert in July 2025, just two weeks before her father’s death. Their engagement lasted seven months before news broke that the couple had parted ways, leaving fans to process a lot of life events in a short span.
Since the split, Kelly has relocated from Los Angeles and settled into a quieter life in the English countryside. The move marks a big shift from a West Coast routine to pastoral living — a change her brother, Jack Osbourne, says has suited her.
Jack has publicly noted that Kelly is happier and focused on her son Sidney, who is three years old. "Kelly’s living her country life," he told reporters, adding that she’s content and simply “doing her thing, being a mum.” Those words paint a portrait of someone prioritizing family and stability over tabloid headlines.
Osbourne herself has stepped in to address the dating speculation rather than relying solely on her representative’s message. She responded publicly to the whispers, though whether her comments square with the “just friends” explanation remains a matter of public interest.
With Kelly now based in the countryside and focusing on her son, any future sightings will likely be read through the lens of a mother balancing privacy and a public life. For now, representatives insist there’s no romance — but the Manchester launch gave tabloids plenty to talk about.
