Kelly sadly had to skip a pool party recently to wear compression socks given her ankle size, which was caused by her pregnancy. She explained in the post, featuring a picture of her legs in a pair of pink and white colored socks. In addition, her legs were outstretched on what looked like a blanket. In her words:

"Nothing feels more like being pregnant then having to leave the pool party and go put compression socks on because you suddenly have ankles bigger then [sic] tree trunks!!!"

Kelly, who shares her unborn child with her boyfriend and Slipknot DJ, Sid Wilson, announced her pregnancy in May with a statement that conveyed how excited she felt. She said, "I know that I have been very quiet these past few months so I thought I would share with you all as to why… I am over the moon to announce that I am going to be a Mumma."

The former "Fashion Police" presenter, who recently became an aunt to her brother Jack Osbourne's newborn baby, Maple, was beyond delighted about her conception as she described her feeling as ecstatic.

As for her relationship with the father of her child, they had reportedly known each other since 1999, when they met during Slipknot's tour with Ozzfest, the musical festival created by her parents, Ozzy and Sharon. Kelly and Wilson did not start as romantic partners but eventually got together, remaining friends since their first meeting, and are "very happy" as a couple, per a source. 

She seemed not to have been the only one in the Osbourne clan excited about her pregnancy, as her father once gushed about it during an appearance at Comic-Con in San Diego. Ozzy called her "big" and "beautiful," revealing that she was six months pregnant at the time. He also disclosed the first thing he planned to gift his grandson after birth; a microphone.

Before her one-year sobriety journey announcement, The Blast reported that Kelly shared the exciting news of her pregnancy on Instagram using a shot of her unborn baby's sonogram and her beaming face. At the time, she returned to social media after a two-month break, shocking the world with the announcement of her first conception.
