Elliot Kingsley is Ozzy Osbourne's son, whom the Black Sabbath rock star adopted when he married his mother. However, the pair never really got close.
Ozzy Osbourne doesn't only have children with his current wife, Sharon Osbourne. He welcomed other children from previous relationships. In his 2009 book, "I Am Ozzy," the rock star opened up about Elliot Kingsley.
Ozzy revealed that when he married his first wife, Thelma, her then four or five-year-old son, Elliot, lived with them. The singer adopted him, and despite Elliot being a good child, he and Ozzy never got along.

The artist confessed to spending time at home shouting or hitting the boy despite the child being undeserving of the treatment. The musician admitted wishing he'd been a better parent to Elliot because the boy had a rough time before Ozzy came into the picture.
Elliot's biological father left before he got a chance to know him. At an older age, the singer's stepson told him he once saw his father at a bar but wasn't brave enough to address him. Ozzy failed to be a good substitute, and his alcoholism didn't help as it made him "volatile."
He also confessed that his ego was out of control and figured he was a "horrendous" stepfather to Elliot. The star's stepchild had siblings when his mother welcomed more children before divorcing Ozzy.
Who Are Elliot Kingsley's Siblings from His Mother's Side?
According to Elliot's stepfather, he received his first sibling when Jessica Osbourne was born on January 20, 1972. She made Ozzy Osbourne a first-time parent on that cold, clear winter night. Another confession Elliot's stepfather made was that he physically abused his mother.
According to his Instagram account, he's married and following in his father's footsteps by welcoming many children.
The abuse coincided with the birth of Elliot's second sibling, Louis. The musician noted how his first wife suffered during their marriage.
In the book, "Ordinary People: Our Story," Sharon said she and Ozzy finally married in June 1982 after Thelma finally signed her divorce papers. Elliot later welcomed half-siblings when his stepfather remarried.
How Did Ozzy Osbourne's Son, Elliot Kingsley, Become an Older Brother to More Siblings?
When Ozzy and Sharon married, they welcomed three children. Like Elliot, their eldest child, Aimee Osbourne, never starred on the reality series "The Osbournes." Aimee explained that at the time, she was still trying to figure out who she was amidst her chaotic family life and didn't want that shown on television, adding:
"I wanted to protect myself, my parents, my siblings, too."
Ultimately, she had to move out ahead of time to allow MTV to move in and Aimee stayed out of the spotlight until she became a musician named ARO. Elliot's other half-sister, Kelly Osbourne, celebrated Ozzy's birthday on December 3, 2023, with a family photo on Instagram.
"We are always the best versions of ourselves when we are together. I love my family so much it hurts. Dad, you are the other pea in my pod," she wrote. The television personality also revealed that she loves her family "so much it hurts."
Elliot's half-brother is Jack Osbourne. According to his Instagram account, he's married and following in his father's footsteps by welcoming many children. For 2023's Halloween, he appeared happy alongside his fiancée, his lastborn child, and his whole family, including Ozzy and Sharon.
