Kelly Osbourne Designs Her Bezel-Set Diamond Engagement Ring to Remind Her of Rocker Dad’s Ear Bling

With a nod to her rocker dad, Ozzy, E! "Fashion Police" commentator Kelly Osbourne designed her new engagement ring to remind her of the earring the Black Sabbath frontman wore when she was a tyke.

Osbourne told Us Weekly, "I used to hold my finger up to his ear when I was little and say, 'I want a ring like that.' Now I have one!"

The 28-year-old fashionista had kept the news of her engagement to 29-year-old vegan chef Matthew Mosshart a secret for more than six months because their custom-made ring had not been completed.

Last week, the couple finally confirmed that Mosshart had popped the question New Year’s Day during a vacation on the Caribbean island of Anguilla.

"We were on a balcony that overlooks the ocean," Mosshart told Hello! magazine. "It was just beautiful. She said, ‘Yes,’ and then she smiled for the rest of the night!"

"I've never felt this close to another human being, ever," Osbourne added in the interview.

On Saturday, Osbourne and her dad went out to get manicures together. When they were done, Osbourne shared a pair of Instagram pictures that showed off their manicures, and also gave her fans their first clear look at her new engagement bling.

The clean, modern design draws the eye to a large flawless round diamond, which is bezel set in white precious metal (we're guessing it's platinum). A bezel setting uses no prongs, just a lip of precious metal that secures the diamond in place.

One of the photos sweetly shows Osbourne's hands intertwined with her father's. Her engagement ring sits in the center of the frame that also reveals Ozzy's affection for fine jewelry. He's wearing a gold-and-diamond skull ring on his right hand and an engraved gold thumb ring on his left.
