Kelly Osbourne, the daughter of rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, is one tough gal. The singer and reality star was arrested for allegedly slapping a gossip columnist, who called her fiancé, model Luke Worrall, “stupid.”
According to the British newspaper The Daily Mail, the incident occurred in August last year when, according to witnesses, Osbourne threw a fit at London club Punk after gossip writer Zoe Griffin continued to poke fun at her and Worrall.
In her column in The Mirror, Griffin quoted Osbourne as saying, “I have an issue with you. My boyfriend knows what an earthquake is and everyone has been laughing at him and he's upset.” Griffin reportedly offered to do an interview with Worrall to highlight his accomplishments, but the two started arguing prompting Kelly to land her hand on Griffin’s cheek.
Earlier this month, the 24-year-old voluntarily presented herself accompanied by her lawyer to a London police station. She was given a court date in March and was released back into the world on bail.
A Metropolitan police spokesperson released a statement confirming the arrest by appointment on January 2 for “common assault” in connection with “an alleged incident in Soho in the early hours of Aug. 29.”
Kelly Osbourne, who seemed to have a rough time finding a suitable boyfriend, and the BMX biker-turned-model started dating in May last year after a year-long friendship. In most interviews, Osbourned appeared head over heels for Worrall and even said she’d marry him.
“We get on so well together,” she said in the earlier stages of her relationship. “I really do love him.”
”Would I marry him? Yes,” she continued, “But I'm still really young... so we'll have to wait and see.”
The two announced their engagement in November on Facebook.
