I am like my father in the sense that I wear my heart on my sleeve, I can’t pretend. I am who I am. You can love me or hate me.'Aimee, who is the eldest child of Sharon and the late rocker Ozzy, decided against featuring in their reality TV show, moving out of the family home at 16.While MTV’s The Osbournes, which launched in 2002, catapulted her younger siblings Kelly and Jack to worldwide fame, Aimee stayed in the shadows, refusing to be drawn into the world of reality television. She previously said that she would have liked to have stayed at home 'a little longer', but as the MTV crew moved in the then teenager moved out.In a previous interview with The Independent, Aimee said of not appearing on The Osbournes, 'Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television?''I wanted to protect myself, my parents, my siblings, too. They were very young, very impressionable,' she continued.Kelly admits that the reality show changed her life, and not necessarily for the better. Speaking on We Need To Talk: 'I remember the night before The Osbournes launched on TV.

Because we weren't normal, we weren't like everyone else, we were just being ourselves. And all of a sudden the judgement came in, and the very next day, there were paparazzi outside my house.''I didn’t even think the show would make me famous, and I was just excited because it was MTV, it was cool.'The family's show came to an end in 2005 after running for four series. Kelly was 20 when the cameras left and she explains that despite the show only being a part of her life for four years, to some extent she can never escape that period of time.'The reason why we decided to end the series… Because the thing is, there's nowhere to go but down. We wanted to end on a high and we wanted to have our lives back,' she explained.'And I wanted to figure out what I wanted to do with my life, and that took me a minute. It’s only just now, when I’m in my 40’s that I’m free to do that.''There are some people that still see me as that 16 year old. Half of me is like ‘haha I’ll take it’, the other half is like "come on, like people grow up, people change, life happens."'Previously I'm A Celebrity star Jack revealed that he and sister Aimee are also 'not close at all' in a podcast recorded weeks before the death of their father Ozzy. Jack said on the Disrespectfully podcast: 'Back then she really wanted to be a musician and the kind of musician she wanted to be was like a Fiona Apple, Mazzy Star, like this kind of obscure, mysterious, moody…'And she deemed doing a show on MTV as low-hanging fruit. She was like, "I’m not going to be seen riding coat-tails," kind of thing, that’s how she perceived it.'Once the show was hugely successful I think she was kind of like, "Well I can’t now come on because I don’t want to be seen even more so as jumping on the bandwagon." And she dug her heels in and wanted to be relatively private and obscure.'Aimee has remained out of the limelight and has released music under the name ARO, which are her initials and also has a few acting credits under her belt.Jack revealed on the podcast they weren't on close terms when he was quizzed on whether Aimee regretted not taking part in the family's reality series.He admitted: 'I’ve never had the conversation with her, we’re not close at all. We don’t have a great relationship, she’ll be the first to tell you that, so it’s no secret.'I’ve never asked her outright, "Do you regret it’" I think there must be a level of like, "Hey, my life would have probably been different than what it is if I’d done that", so I don’t know, I think I would feel like I would have regretted it.'Sharon previously admitted she was devastated when Aimee moved out, saying on The Talk in 2018: 'She felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera. She hated the idea - it was appalling to her.'And so she left at 16 and I regret every day that she did. It broke my heart when she moved.'Last year, Aimee courageously put herself in the spotlight for her beloved father at his funeral procession.The Black Sabbath rocker died aged 76 on July 22, 2025 and his funeral cortege travelled through his hometown of Birmingham, passing thousands of fans who lined the streets.Kelly and Aimee were pictured with their devastated mother and brother for the rock legend's send off.Ozzy shared daughters Kelly and Aimee, as well as son Jack, with his wife of 43 years Sharon, and also had three children, Louis, Jessica and Eliot, from his first marriage to wife Thelma Riley.
