The forgotten Osbourne sibling who moved out at 16 made admission about reality show

Ozzy and Sharon have another child who didn't appear in their reality show

Many of us watched The Osbournes back in the day as it chronicled the daily life of Black Sabbath singer Ozzy Osbourne, his wife Sharon, and their children.

Before we had The Kardashians, Real Housewives or Selling Sunset, this MTV series was so unfiltered and chaotic it had viewers hooked when it debuted in 2002. It ushered in a whole new era of television and entertainment, and there hasn’t been anything quite like it since.

It featured Sharon and Ozzy’s daughter Kelly, who is now a TV personality and talk show host, and their son Jack as they bickered with their parents and navigated getting older in a rock and roll household in the heart of Los Angeles.


They gave us unfiltered access to their lives and family dynamic, something which was shocking and unlike anything anyone had ever seen before at the time.

As viewers felt like they had a complete understanding of the Osbournes, it may come as a surprise to some that the family wasn’t just Ozzy, Sharon, Kelly and Jack after all.

The Osbournes actually had another child - Aimee - who chose not to take part in the show and whose photo was often blurred out from scenes entirely.

Aimee is their eldest child but moved out from the family home at just 16 years old before filming started.

She told The Independent in 2020: “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 explained.

Aimee is now the lead singer of the band ARO, and thanks her parents for helping her break into the industry.

“My parents overheard me kind of singing in my room. It was a friend of my parents who said, 'Oh, you should come and stay with me and work with some producers and see what happens',” she recounted.

Former X Factor judge Sharon opened up about the absence of Aimee on the OG reality show and the pain she felt when her eldest daughter moved out.

Sharon told The Talk: “She felt too that she didn't want to grow up on camera.”

Further explaining her daughter’s choice, she stated plainly: “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."
