  • She called her gastric sleeve weight loss surgery in 2018 the ‘best thing’ she had ever done – but denied getting plastic surgery, except for a little Botox
  • Now she exercises regularly and has embraced a vegan diet – but is still resentful of people in Hollywood who refused to work with her because she was ‘fat’

She’s ditched the shaved hair and goth make-up. Oh, and she’s also lost more than 38kg. Meet the new Kelly Osbourne. She has undergone a transformation that sees her sporting a more natural look, wearing fitted clothes and longer locks.

So has she had plastic surgery? And just how did she lose the weight? Here’s an inside look at the new Kelly Osbourne.

Osbourne underwent gastric sleeve weight-loss surgery in 2018 and, on The Hollywood Raw podcast in 2020, described it as being “the best thing” she had ever done. The surgery, which according to UCLA removes 75-80 per cent of the stomach, resulted in Osbourne losing 38.5kg.

She has been vocal about her decision to have the surgery, telling the podcast that it is far from a “quick fix” and requires a change in lifestyle. “All it does is move you in the right direction,” the reality TV star said.

Osbourne also told the Hollywood Raw podcast that she had to have a year of therapy ahead of the surgery, which put a stop to her addiction issues and helped prevent her from “emotionally eating”. She said she had to change her mindset ahead of the surgery and just “get happy”.
