On July 31st, Marilyn Manson and his wife Lindsay Warner were among 110 invited guests of Ozzy Osbourne's nearest and dearest to attend his private funeral at his 250-acre estate near Gerrards Cross. Guests were sent a simple black invitation with a picture of a cross that read: “In loving memory of Ozzy Osbourne.” They were transported from The Crowne Plaza and The Bull in Gerrards Cross to the house at 2pm, with the service starting at 3pm. Pictures of Ozzy were dotted throughout the house and a photograph of him was given to everyone who attended to take home with them. A huge floral tribute was seen at the mansion that spelled out “Ozzy fucking Osbourne.” Fans left tributes at the gate of the estate. The ceremony comes just one day after Osbourne’s family and friends came together in Birmingham, England, for a funeral procession.

As previously reported, Marilyn Manson's attorney Howard King submitted on August 23rd a Motion to Strike 37 references to sexual assault of a minor from Bianca Allaine Kyne's Second Amended Complaint, and asked the court for her to submit a Third Amended Complaint.
On September 11th, Bianca's attorney Patrick Stoneking filed an opposition to Manson's Motion to Strike, stating that though the majority of the motions are inconsequential and Bianca has agreed to strike the majority of the references related to sexual assault of a minor, there are still a few references they are opposed to removing because it has bearing on her alleged assault when she was an adult in 1999. The first reference that Bianca refuses to have removed is related to what she believes was part of the grooming process that led to her being assaulted as an adult. And the second reference is related to behavior exhibited by Manson when Bianca was a minor that displayed a power dynamic which he later exploited when Bianca was an adult to abuse her.
In Exhibit 1 that accompanied the filing, the Second Amended Complaint is submitted with red marks to indicate what they intend to remove for the Third Amended Complaint.
We await the ruling as to what Motions to Strike submitted by Manson will be accepted or rejected.
Of further interest, this filing also confirms once again that Bianca filed a separate lawsuit against Manson on February 20th 2024 in Louisiana relating to the childhood sexual abuse (Kyne v. Warner et al., 2023-13429; A-16 - Orleans Parish).
