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 favourite 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.
