Kelly Osbourne, 28, and ‘vegan chef’ Matthew Mosshart, 29, are engaged

I expected this. I think there were some reports and stories about it too, a few months ago. Kelly Osbourne got engaged to her boyfriend of a few years, Matthew Mosshart. She confirmed the news to Hello! Magazine and E! News. Kelly is 28 years old, Matthew is 29. He’s a “vegan chef” and I believe he actually has a real job somewhere. It’s not a make-believe job title, he actually is cooks for a living. So, if we’re setting the bar that low, he’s pretty amazing. He has a job and he’s not a douchebag, nor is he cheating on Kelly (like one of her exes), and he isn’t a substance-abuser (that we know of). So, congrats!

Kelly Osbourne is ready to become a Mrs.! The E! Fashion Police star, 28, tells Britain’s Hello! magazine that she and her boyfriend of one year Matthew Mosshart are officially engaged; Us Weekly broke news back in January that Osbourne and the vegan chef, 29, had secretly made plans to wed in December of last year.

He popped the question during a romantic vacation in Anguilla, they reveal. “I knew she was ‘The One’ pretty early on,” the groom-to-be says. Adds Osbourne: “I’ve never felt this close to another human being, ever. People say we’re co-dependent but we just want to be together all the time.”
Mosshart and Osbourne met at the summer 2011 wedding of Kate Moss — and the duo quickly fell in love, stepping out as a couple that December. To seal his commitment, the New Yorker moved to L.A. to be with her. “Matthew made the biggest sacrifice anyone’s ever made for me, to move away from everything that he knew to be with me in LA,” Osbourne gushes.

“Long-distance relationships often don’t work out. We’d dated for a year and knew we wanted to be together,” she adds. “Matthew has broken down every one of my walls. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do in front of him.”

Back in January, sources close to Kelly’s famous family — parents Ozzy and Sharon, siblings Jack and Aimee — assured Us that the whole family approved of Mosshart. “Kelly is the happiest she’s ever been,” a pal said. “Her career is going well, and she’s in a healthy relationship with a wonderful guy.”

I always think Kelly is younger than she actually is – in my mind, I guess she’s permanently about 23 or 24. But she’s 28, and I think that’s a good age to marry, whether you’re a “civilian” or a celebrity. And I do think Matthew is possibly the best match she’s ever made – he seems like a decent guy, he cooks for her, he treats her with respect, and they seem happy and solid. Congrats! Their babies will have magnificent hair.

    Whoa, MAJOR hair envy. (I’m talking about his hair, obviously.)

  2. aims says:

    she seems to become engaged to a lot of her boyfriends, but never quite makes it down the aisle. Good luck to them.

    • Holly says:

      ITA, I actually thought she was already engaged to this one, like it was big news a couple of months ago or so… guess not. How many engagements has she had?

      Either way, she seems to be in a better place than she ever has been and he seems a bit like an obedient puppy, so I hope it takes!

    • Twez says:

      I was going to say! This seems like the fifth fiance she’s had in the last five years.

  3. Alexandria says:

    And he resembles her father!

  4. JL says:

    Best of luck to them….

  5. fabgrrl says:

    How many engagements has she had? Three?

  6. Lulu86 says:

    it says they have been dating a year, i thought a few years sounded to long because i remember not long ago she was engaged to a young guy that ended up cheating on her with a transvestite i think.She likes the rocker guys clearly, he kind looks like Ozzy(not simply because of the long hair).

    • woop says:

      His sister is actually in a couple bands, one with Jamie Hince and one with Jack White.

      • loveisthecoal says:

        Ooh, I was wondering if he was related to Allison Mosshart. She is one of te coolest people ever, so I hope he’s awesome by association! 😉

      • Ruth Dunbar says:

        That was my first thought too — “I wonder if he’s related to Alison, because they sure have the same hair.”

    • Holly says:

      I’ve read they’ve been seeing each other for 2 years, but I don’t recall when the twitter/transvestite thing happened. They met at Kate Moss’ wedding – but I’m not sure if they started dating then or if it was just the intro.

  7. Anna says:

    His hair is insane and I want it. Also he doesnt seem to be exploiting Kelly’s name, so congrats to both of them.

    • Pia says:

      I have pretty much the same exact hair! It’s awesome except for when it’s really humid…

    • lisa says:

      she’s so busy exploiting her own name to compensate for lack of everything else, there’s no room left for anyone else to do it too

  8. SmokeyBlues says:

    Hah laughing at the codependent remark. People say that about a couple when they themselves are jealous of the closeness of the couple, methinks. I get that a lot because my husband and I are always happy to just be together. It doesn’t keep is from other relationships, and happy people always tell is how great we are together. It’s just unhappy and jealous people who call a committed couple “codependent”.
    Anyway congrats to Kelly, she deserves a great guy!

  9. Jano1981 says:

    While I will never associate Kelly with fashion or even someone that should be judging other people’s fashion mistakes, this is nice and I’m happy for her. I felt badly for her after that one boyfriend cheated with guys. The whole mental questioning, why did he put his P in my V if he really wants a P in his B??? This guy looks like he could be a keeper for her. 🙂 congrats to them. 🙂

  10. Amelia says:

    Cannot stand her. Good luck to him … not that they will last!

    • Abby says:

      +1 and when they break up, because you know they will, it’ll be all his fault (of course).

      I’m sure a reality show about their big day is already in the works.

  11. Cam S says:

    She certainly has a “type”. Why is she always getting engaged? Can’t she just date without thinking she has to marry the bloke? How many times has she been engaged? She is still under 30 yrs old. If I were this young man, I’d be thinking perhaps she doesn’t take the institution of marriage seriously.

    The reason he is holding her heels in the last pic, is because NO ONE can walk for more than 5 minutes in 7 inch heels (except Dame Helen Mirren). When will these horse hooved heels go out of style? Gosh, I’m crabby this morning! Sorry.

    • sirsnarksalot says:

      Agree on both counts. If she’s known him a year its too soon, especially with her track record. And those shoes (I call them “hooker heels”) have got to go. Every day I see women tottering around in them like day old horses. Its idiotic.

      • loveisthecoal says:

        I always refer to them as hooker heels too! And yes,PLEASE let them go out of style soon!! It’s almost impossible anymore to find a pair of normal, standard heels without a 4-inch platform on the front!

        (Agree with Cam S though, Dame Helen obvs. gets a pass.)

  12. TriedTru says:

    Anyone else getting a Bill Hader vibe from the second pic?

    • EscapedConvent says:

      Yes! Take away that glorious hair, & you’ve got a picture of Bill Heder.

      • Holly says:

        HA! and ewww/weird! Doppleganger/secret twin?? I mean, he’s missing out on various roles as either a Bill Heder double or, well, any movie Heder does. Now I know why he keeps the luxurious locks!

    • Mrs. Peacock says:

      Ah yes! I just said that upthread, and I’m still wiping off my chair. Bill Hader make-a me squeeee…

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      YES!! THAT’S who he reminds me of!

      Weird…

  13. Original A says:

    Well, best of luck. I believe she called Angelina Jolie some choice names back in the day because of Brad Pitt. Ironically, Ozzy was married when he hooked up with Sharon and Sharon admitted to an inappropriate relationship with Ozzy’s friend who died. So
    I found it a bit rich that she would be so judgrmental towards Angelina.

    • Anon33 says:

      Ok first of all Angelina Jolie has NOTHING to do with this story. Not one thing.

      And second of all, why are Kelly’s mother’s mistakes being held against her?? you are talking about something that happened before Kelly was even BORN.

    • Tasha says:

      I agree with Anon33 Angelina Jolie has nothing to do with this story.

      Secondly what are you talking about Kelly has never said anything bad about Angelina in regard to her relastionship with Brad.

      Anyway Good luck to them I hope they are happy.

    • bns says:

      LOL Angelina fans will always find a way to insert her into every single situation.

  14. Rose says:

    ‘Mosshart’ – is he any relative to Allison Mosshart from The Kills? The Kate Moss connection is making put 2 and 2 together

  15. Steffie says:

    Is it strange that I actually think they match each other? I hope they’re happy!

  16. Justpassingby says:

    He looks like her dad, and she looks like his sister…

  17. EscapedConvent says:

    Is that Kelly Osbourne?! In the second photo, I would never have known who she was. Striking eye makeup.

  18. Abby says:

    He’s really pretty. Congrats to them!

    • Stef Leppard says:

      He’s totally cute! I’m not really into long hair on guys but he seems to pull it off. Maybe because his hair is so beautiful?

  19. Bodhi says:

    I’m feeling magnanimous so congrats to them. I can’t stand her, but everyone deserves to be happy. I hope she doesn’t turn this into a reality show

  20. Ryan says:

    When he smiles, he looks like Bill Hader.

  21. emma says:

    His sister is also Alison Mosshart of the Kills (who can look a lot like Kelly), so there’s some celeb connection. I’m sure he gets some help from his sis.

  22. DeltaJuliet says:

    He looks like Evangeline Lily’s twin brother.

  23. Cece says:

    Meh – She’s a spoiled brat and a mean girl, and she seems too insecure to make a marriage to a man who is clearly prettier than she is work.

  24. UsedToBeLulu says:

    Well, judging by he and his sister, they inherited some crazy hair genes. I wonder if he will pass that along (assuming they have children).

    Congrats to the happy couple! They seem suited to one another.

  25. Quinn says:

    Ugh. I think she seems like a mean person.

    All of her “fiancés” have looked rather fey.

  26. gg says:

    He is adorable. I hope he never wears his hair short in future.

  27. onegirlup says:

    He sorta reminds me of a younger Warren Beatty. PLUS he looks ALOT like my own sexi foxy husband! No kidding. I am not crazy about Kelly so much but Congrats I guess. I know she has struggled with her weight and has had success but to me she always looks pudgy in the face-always. Anyhow good luck to them both. I hope it works out.

    Giddy Up!

  28. Fue McCormick says:

    … I’m beginning to think I’m the only one who likes Kelley’s hair. I just totally dig it. I also like her on Fashion Police; not necessarily the outfits she wears but I think she’s a good fashion critic. I also like that she still won’t touch Madonna. As soon as Joan brings up Madonna Kelley stays quiet. She appears to be a pretty good friend. Matthew kind of reminds me of Rob Lowe; he’s a handsome guy.

    • Jade says:

      I think it’s more of perhaps gratitude and respect for her ex boss. Madonna picked her to be the face of her clothing line one time. So yes when it comes to Madonna, I also like to observe Kelly during Fashion Police and nothing negative comes out.

  29. corky says:

    F*ck this no-talent b1tch

  30. la chica says:

    They’re not going to make it to the altar. None of her metrosexuals have put the second ring on it thus far. This one won’t either.

  31. Jade says:

    Wow his sister really looks like Kelly.

    • Redd says:

      that was a mean thing to say about Alison- they don’t resemble at all. ick.

      • Jade says:

        You don’t have to have the same opinion but how was it mean? You can scroll up and some people, not all, think they do. It wasn’t a mean-spirited opinion that compared their characters, both look fine to me and in some shots they look different sheesh.

  32. boo says:

    He’s holding her shoes, that’s a good man right there, and that hair! Why is it that when men let their hair grow out it looks all shiny and curly and wonderful! I’m envious.

  33. Jade says:

    She’s a self-important spoiled douche without an ounce of talent…. Please go away & don’t come back to Australia!

  34. Brat says:

    How many times is she going to announce she’s engaged?
