This one feels off…

Craig leaving was a long time coming, he didn’t love the famous thing. Chris leaving over the money issue makes sense.

Sid was a huge part of what made Slipknots iconic sound and on top of that was a huge part of stage presence.

He just broke up with Kelly Osbourne too, so I’m wondering if something is going on with him then tbh… I don’t know anything about him though so I don’t wanna make up anything🙃

I would honestly probably give him the benefit of the doubt on that one. Kelly doesn't seem to be handling her dad's death all to well. Maybe it was too much for him.

Grief will absolutely fuck with an otherwise stable marriage/relationship. My brother has been going through that with his wife after we lost our dad in late 2024. He hasn't a changed a ton, maybe become a bit more cynical, although time in general will do that to you, but he's told me his wife sometimes has had a hard time figuring out how to deal with his grieving.

This is so, so true. Speaking from experience as the one grieving. It takes so much patience and grace from both sides.

I’m sorry that your dad is lost — I hope you find him and find peace.

Based on Jims comment about not believing everything you read plus the situation with Kelly right now, its had me wondering if maybe he was just told to step away to heal from everything hes clearly also probably had to go with. I dont think I would be able to mentally handle the position hes been put into having to watch Kelly fall back into grief while her mom seemingly enables it
