English Reality star, television personality, singer, actress, and fashion designer Kelly Osbourne has paid a touching tribute to the late superstar singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse on what would have been the late star’s 43rd birthday.
Osbourne — who rose to fame on MTV’s “The Osbournes” and has since appeared on the likes of “Dancing with the Stars” and “The Masked Singer” — was close friends with “Back to Black” performer Winehouse, who tragically passed away from the effects of accidental alcohol poisoning at the age of just 27 on July 23, 2011.
41-year-old Osbourne took to social media to pay her tribute to Winehouse, which included some amazing throwback photographs.
Kelly Osbourne Remembers ‘My Beautiful Amy’
Kelly Osbourne shared her tribute to her late friend Amy Winehouse with the 4.3 million followers on her Instagram account.
Her post includes a carousel of six superb throwback photographs. All six snaps feature Winehouse. In five of them, Kelly is alongside her, either laughing, posing, or hugging her. In the other image, Kelly’s father, the late Ozzy Osbourne, lovingly hugs Winehouse while she laughs heartily.
Kelly’s long caption on the post begins, “Happy birthday, my beautiful Amy. 🤍”
It goes on, “There are some people who come into your life and leave footprints on your heart so deep that time could never possibly erase them. You are one of those people.”
The post also says, “You were magic, Amy. Beautifully, wildly, imperfectly human and so very loved.”
After more heartfelt words, the touching post concludes, “Keep singing somewhere beautiful. Until we meet again. 🤍”
Martha and the Vandellas 1967 pop hit “Jimmy Mack” plays over the top of the post. Presumably, it’s a song that meant something to Kelly and Winehouse.
Kelly’s fans and followers flocked to the post’s comments section to leave their own messages.
