After being sighted over the weekend outside a recording studio in Los Angeles, California, Sid Wilson remained silent when asked about his status with Slipknot, as per theprp. Wilson has been “permanently” expelled from the band, according to a July 31st TMZ report that cited people with knowledge of the situation. Wilson and the band did not publicly address the issue over the weekend, but Slipknot guitarist Jim Root posted a mysterious remark online. Over the weekend, Wilson advertised the opening of his merchandise store, but when knowledge leaked, he dismissed an in-person inquiry regarding his present standing within the band. Wilson is accosted and asked about his standing in the band in the video that TMZ posted, but he chooses to disregard the question.

But that’s not all. Unnamed people who appear to be close to the band are cited in TMZ’s report. Wilson’s actions against his bandmates seemed to have gotten out of control. The band had been considering sacking him for a while, and the article stated that it was “a long time coming.” Additionally, TMZ reported that the band “freaked out behind the scenes” when word of Wilson’s firing spread before the masked metal band could make an announcement on their own terms.

The latest batch of updates come from Sid Wilson’s former fiancée, Kelly Osbourne. She has taken to her instagram stories to put out some apparent messages directed at Wilson.

Strange how the loudest defense of the guilty is rarely innocence… It’s distraction. When the mask slips, they don’t face the mirror they throw it at someone else. I also heard that when you break a mirror you get 7 years bad luck! Or is that just karma? This is why I always take accountability! As they say some are sicker then others.

Wake the fuck up take some responsibility I will not take your shit anymore! I’m done. I want to be happy and I have a beautiful son to raise. Leave me alone. let me heal. I can’t protect you from yourself anymore.

Also while I’m at it can I have my dogs back and all my possessions. Oh yeah and maybe some child support?
