While Donny lived through some dark times in his life, he has made it his mission to recover and not let the same things happen again. When it comes to his own family, he doesn’t want to make any mistakes. For someone who is so proud to be a family man, there is simply too much to lose.
When he was 20 years old and uber-famous, Donny married Debra Glenn at Salt Lake Temple. The pair has five sons: Donald Clark Jr., Jeremy James, Brandon Michael, Christopher Glenn, and Joshua Davis. The family is often seen together having the best of times, on vacation, or on the way to church.
So Much Gold
Among other accolades, the Osmond family has an extensive collection of Gold Records, having earned gold four times. The album, "I'm Leaving It All Up to You," was released in 1974 and was one of the first records to receive gold status.
The album "Featuring Songs from Their Television Show" was released in 1976. As its name suggests, the album had songs from their TV show, and it also received gold. Sadly, the Osmond pair hasn’t released an album in a long time, despite all of the performances they are doing again. We demand you get into the studio and make us another record!
Material Girl
As is often the case with people who become rich and famous early in life, Marie enjoyed the lap of luxury from a young age. All that fame and fortune really make lots of materialistic pleasures possible, and it's a temptation that is hard not to succumb to.
It appeared as if Marie Osmond had a soft spot for elite designers, namely a Louis Vuitton obsession as she never was seen without one a Vuitton bag on her person. In regards to her personal style, in between shows, Marie was seen sporting curlers in her hair, apple in hand, and not a single care otherwise.
Donny on Broadway
Donny had a fair amount of success on the Broadway circuit, having appeared in a grand total of three plays. His biggest play, by far, was "Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" in which he played the titular character. We couldn't imagine him as anything but the lead.
He also played the lead in "Little Johnny Jones." He also took on the surprising role of the evil Gaston, in "Beauty and the Beast." We know what you're thinking. Donny? A villain? Impossible! And yet, from the photos, it looks like Donny reveled in the challenge of playing the bad guy for just a little while.
A Secret Crush
Donny appeared on the British TV show, "The Kumars at No. 42" as a guest. He had no idea that he was in for a surprise a secret admirer just waiting to meet him. Sanjeev Bhaskar, the star of the show (you might also recognize him from the Netflix hit "The Sandman"), said that his wife, comedian Meera Syal, had always wanted to marry Donny Osmond.
When she was young she was even willing to convert to Mormonism! What crush! With Donny on the show, Sanjeev joked that she could run off with him if she wanted, as her excitement erupted.
