Jack Osbourne admitted that he and his sister Aimee are estranged just days before their dad Ozzy’s tragic death.

“We’re not close at all,” Jack, 39, shared on the July 16 episode of the “Disrespectfully” podcast co-hosted by Katie Maloney and Dayna Kathan.

“We don’t have a great relationship. She’ll be the first to tell you that. So, it’s no secret.”

Aimee, 41, has maintained a very private life after choosing not to appear on the MTV reality show “The Osbournes” with the rest of her family.

Jack explained that his older sister chose to avoid the spotlight because she aimed to be a musician with a “mysterious, moody, and obscure” persona, which didn’t fit with appearing on a reality show.

“She considered participating in an MTV show to be the easy route and said, ‘I’m not going to appear like I’m riding on coattails.’ That was her perspective,” he elaborated as a father of four.

“After the show’s massive success, she felt it was too late to join in, as she didn’t want to seem like she was jumping on the bandwagon even more. So she decided to stay private and maintain a somewhat hidden profile.”

Aimee moved out of her family’s house at just 16 to avoid the cameras. Her mom, Sharon, admitted in 2018 that she deeply regrets allowing Aimee to leave.

“She felt too that she didn’t want to grow up on camera. She hated the idea. It was appalling to her,” Sharon, 72, said at the time.

“And so she left at 16 and I regret every day that she did,” the “Talk” alum continued, adding, “She was happy but it broke my heart when she moved.”

Aimee’s younger sister, Kelly, has also spoken out about their estrangement, saying in 2021 that they “don’t talk.”

“We’re just really different,” Kelly said on Dax Shepard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast. “She doesn’t understand me, and I don’t understand her.”

Aimee — who’s rarely seen out and about — had her first public reunion with her siblings in years at Ozzy’s funeral procession where the family put on a united front.

Each of the siblings paid tribute to their father with meaningful jewelry and accessories. Aimee wore a bat brooch, referencing the time Ozzy famously bit the head off a bat during a show in 1982.

The Black Sabbath frontman died on July 22 after a long battle with Parkinson’s disease and “life-altering” injuries.

“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” the family announced in a statement obtained by Page Six.

“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”
