It's going to be a more somber holiday for the Osbournes as they look ahead to their first Christmas after the heartbreaking death of Ozzy Osbourne earlier this year, but he will still be part of the occasion.
Just two weeks after performing a final farewell concert with his band Black Sabbath, Ozzy unexpectedly passed on July 22. In a new interview with The Mirror, daughter Kelly Osbourne said that the holidays "will never be the same" without him, even though he tried to "ruin Christmas every year because he was Scrooge."

It won't be a full family event, though, as brother Jack and sister Aimee are still in Los Angeles. Nevertheless, Kelly's family and Sharon will be celebrating alongside brother Louis and his family, with Kelly telling the outlet she's happily handing over cooking duties to her brother.
"He’s head chef because he’s the best at cooking," she said, sharing that the family is planning to have "a big turkey." She credits Ozzy's culinary skills for Louis' apparent talent, saying, "I think it came from my dad because my dad used to cook all the time. Shepherds Pie! And chips. The best chips you’ve ever eaten in your life."
"But Louis is a fantastic cook and I’m like through all of this, me and him, he’s been my pillar and he’s just the best human in the world," she added. "I have the best brothers in the world."
