EXCLUSIVE Sharon Osbourne's reclusive daughter Aimee, 41, has grown close to Elvis impersonating rock singer, 29
Ozzy and Sharon Osborne's reclusive eldest daughter Aimee is travelling the world with a US rock band after growing close to their lead singer, MailOnline can reveal. The 41-year-old is believed to be 'besotted' with Elvis Presley impersonating rock singer Wes Leavins, who is the frontman of Chicago group Brigitte Calls Me Baby, and attended their two most recent gigs in London. Last weekend, Aimee made a rare public outing when she was pictured with Leavins, 29, emerging from a hotel in Manchester, where the rockers had been supporting Morrissey during his home-coming gig in the city on Saturday night. When asked if the pair were at item, Aimee simply answered 'no', but according to insiders, her coy response was in keeping with the shy star's bid to keep away from the spotlight. An insider told Mailonline: 'Aimee and Wes clearly share a deep connection. 'She would never go public with anybody, as she's so private. 'So she's happy to continue slipping under the radar and getting on with her life without the attention her other family receives, which is handy when you want to keep a blossoming relationship under wraps. Aimee famously shunned the MTV reality show The Osbournes which made stars of her siblings Kelly and Jack as well as boosting her parents' fame. She's rarely seen in public, which is why her most recent pictures caused a stir online as her face has dramatically changed since her last appearance courtesy of her chiseled facial features and plumped lips. Brigitte Calls Me Baby - formed in 2016 and who take their name from Leavins' teenage pen-pal correspondence with French actress Brigitte Bardot - are currently on the British leg of their global tour. Following their gig in Manchester, they played The Horn in St Albans, Hertfordshire on Tuesday night, which was when she was quizzed about the rumoured romance. Aimee attended the gig and seemingly tried going incognito wearing sunglasses and a woolly beanie hat and stood at the back briefly while the band performed. The following night, she turned up to the band's gig at The Sebright Arms in Hackney, arriving at the East London pub at 8.30pm in a cab - two and a half hours after the band turned up in a white tour van. Whilst Leavins and bandmates; guitarists Jack Fluegel and Trevor Lynch, bassist Devin Wessels, and drummer Jeremy Benshish, played the basement stage, Aimee - dressed in black - hovered around the bar talking to friends. She was later joined by Texas-born Leavins following the band's hour-long show. Clutching a takeaway pizza box, she left with the singer at 10.30pm and headed straight to the band's van, parked right outside the pub. Leavins - who played Elvis Presley in a touring production of musical Million Dollar Quarter in 2022 - helped pack away the band's equipment while Aimee waited in the back before driving off at 11pm. Leavins was still in high school when he was cast as a young Elvis in a touring production of Million Dollar Quartet, the musical about a legendary recording session at the Sun Records studio. Film director Baz Luhrmann, who saw the show, was so impressed by Leavins that he later cold-called him to ask him to work as a consultant on his 2022 film Elvis. His band, said to sound like a mix of Roy Orbison and The Smiths, have supported The Strokes and played London festival All Points East. Rumours of a romance were first sparked by Aimee leaving sweet messages for Leavins and his bandmates on their Instagram page. On several posts she pens heart emojis in the comments, while others see her sharing supportive messages ahead of his shows. Aimee - who is also a singer and performs under her initials ARO - was born in London and raised in California until the age of 16 but moved out of the family home as filming for The Osbournes began in the early 2000s. Reflecting on her decision to not appear on the show she said: 'Back then, I still felt I was trying to figure out who I was in the chaos of family life, so why on earth would I want that portrayed on television? 'I wanted to protect myself, my parents, my siblings, too. They were very young, very impressionable.' She later defended her decision in 2008 and told The Independent: 'I'm not some weirdo depressed daughter that's afraid of the world and locks herself in her room all day. 'I just didn't choose to do the show. I want to be a singer, and I felt if I'd stayed with the Osbournes and done the whole thing I would have been typecast right away. '[Sharon] was hurt, and we definitely had a tough time with disagreements. I'm more reserved and my private life is very important.' Leavins (pictured) was still in high school when he was cast as a young Elvis in a touring production of Million Dollar Quartet, the musical about a legendary recording session at the Sun Records studio Aimee also has a strained relationship with younger sister Kelly, who confirmed in an interview four years ago that they are estranged. Appearing on the Dax Shepard podcast - Armchair Expert in 2021, Kelly revealed: 'We don't talk. We're just really different. 'She doesn't understand me and I don't understand her.' Back in 2015 Aimee admitted to The Independent that she and Kelly were not on close terms and said: 'I wouldn't say there is an ease between us, but there is an acceptance. Do we socialize? No.' However, Aimee and brother Jack's bond is much better, with the pair both running production company Osbourne Media together. The siblings are also in the process of co-producing a biopic about their parents, according to Variety magazine.

She added: "I can't put on weight now, and I don't know what it's done to my metabolism, but I just can't seem to put any on, because I think I went too far."
