The couple started dating in 2022 and welcomed their son Sidney later that year, before they got engaged in July 2025 backstage at Black Sabbath‘s final show ever at the massive Back To The Beginning concert in Birmingham.
They reportedly called off the engagement seven months later in March 2026, according to People.
Now, Jack has said that his sister is “living her country life, and she’s just doing her thing, being a mum” following the split, speaking in a new interview with The Sun.
“She’s in a happier place and she’s got a good routine going. She’s focusing on her and her son,” he added.
After their split was reported, Kelly shared a series of posts on social media demanding child support for their three-year-old son and opened up about the difficulties of co-parenting.
Earlier this month, Wilson exited Slipknot after nearly 30 years together. The metal band officially confirmed his departure on August 14 following weeks of speculation about his status in the group.
“Effective immediately, Slipknot will no longer be associated with Sid Wilson,” they wrote on Instagram. “We wish him the best in his future endeavors.”
Wilson was known as No. 0 and served as their keyboardist and turntablist, joining them in 1998, just before the Iowa-founded group had their mainstream breakthrough with their self-titled debut.
It comes after a TMZ report in late July claimed that Wilson’s exit would mark the latest line-up change. At the time, there had been no word on what led to the alleged split, but the band’s guitarist, Jim Root, took to social media after news broke to urge fans to wait for more information.
In a message shared to his Instagram Story, he said: “Don’t believe everything you read. Stop. Think. Take a breath. Sit with it for awhile.”
Since then during a recent appearance at the inaugural World Scratch Invitational last week, Wilson was introduced as a co-host for the event, and upon taking the mic, introduced himself as “No. 0, from the world famous Slipknot”.
His departure is one of many the band have seen in recent years. In 2019, Slipknot announced they were parting ways with Chris Fehn amid the longtime percussionist’s lawsuit against the band, after he alleged that he had not been properly paid for over twenty years of recording with them.
A few years later, Craig Jones, who had joined them in 1996, left the band in 2023, later that year, Slipknot split with drummer Jay Weinberg over what they called a “creative decision”.
