Jack Osbourne welcomes baby girl and names her after dad Ozzy in touching tribute

Jack Osbourne has welcomed his fifth baby and named the newborn after his late dad Ozzy.

The 40-year-old star and wife Aree Gearhart have become parents for a second time together after their daughter was born on March 5, with the couple revealing the sweet tribute to the late Black Sabbath frontman after his death in July 2025 aged 76.

In a joint announcement on Instagram, Jack and Aree wrote: ‘Introducing Ozzy Matilda Osbourne.’

The post included a black and white video of baby Ozzy asleep, while a note card confirmed her date of birth, and noted she weighed seven pounds and four ounces.

In another nod to Jack’s late dad, she was lying near a black soft toy bat.

The proud dad also shared the news on his Instagram Stories, adding: ‘She’s arrived and she’s perfect.’

‘My heart is melting 💛💛💛 love to you and all the family. CONGRATULATIONS,’ commented soap star Lisa Riley, who became close with Jack duringhis stint on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

‘Yay, we have another Ozzy Osbourne! The world is right again,’ added a fan in response, while another observed that Ozzy was ‘the most perfect name she could have ever received’.

Jack and Aree are already parents to Maple, three, while Jack is also father to daughters Pearl Clementine, 13, Andy Rose, 10, and seven-year-old Minnie Theodora with ex-wife Lisa Stelly.

The proud father of five revealed his wife was pregnant for a second time late last year, after he left the jungle in a double eviction on the UK reality series.

He told The Sun on Sunday at the time: ‘It’s awesome. We’re super-excited. It was sort of planned, I should say.

‘It was maybe a little earlier than expected. But it’s definitely something that we were wanting to pursue and somehow it happened, miraculously.’

Thankfully for Jack, the couple told Ozzy that they were expecting before he passed away, which has helped him handle his grieving for his beloved dad, who died after years of health complications.

He added: ‘I think it’s been partly a healthy distraction, partly healing — probably in that kind of ‘full cycle’ category, in a weird way.

‘It’s very much taken energy out of the grieving side of things and parked in a bit more hopefulness.’

Ozzy’s official cause of death was listed as cardiac arrest, with Parkinson’s disease –  with which he had been diagnosed in 2003 – recorded as a contributing factor in his passing.

Last week, Jack recalled the morning his father died, admitting the day had felt fairly routine.

He told the Hate To Break It To Ya podcast: ‘Even the morning that he passed, it was like, it wasn’t anything dramatic at all.’

Jack added: ‘He was up, he was doing his thing, had some breakfast, and that was it.’

Despite Ozzy’s long-term health issues, Jack said the family had not anticipated the timing of Ozzy’s death.
