Donny and Debbie have five sons. Their names, as previously mentioned, are Brandon Michael Osmond, Donald Clark Osmond Jr., Jeremy James Osmond, Joshua Davis Osmond, and Christopher Glenn Osmond.
The age gap between the oldest son, Donny Jr., and the youngest, Joshua, is about twenty years. The second-born son Jeremy was the first to get married and give Donny a grandchild while Brandon and Donny Jr. got married afterward. Just imagine being Debra and raising these five sons! This happy group looks like they can be quite the party! They must have great fun whenever the whole gang gets together.
A Different Man
While Donny may seem like a wild man on stage, his home life could not be more different. When he is onstage, he focuses on being passionate and in the moment. He doesn't let the lights and the fans confuse him.
At home, it is a different story. He is a great family man. He is down to earth. He mows his own lawn whereas some stars might have that all done for them. He has even stated that he is quite the confident electrician at home. This just goes to show that you can never assume a star's personality based on their stage presence.
Marie Osmond Helps People Get Healthy
Marie’s weight has fluctuated at times, but the last time she noticed she was packing on some pounds she decided to do something about it for good. According to the ads she stars in, she had apparently lost a ton (not literally) of weight on a Nutrisystem diet.
Around the time she started this groundbreaking diet, she also began her stint on "Dancing With the Stars," which required six hours of work from her per day. Since then, she's been an advocate of the brand that helped her get into shape. Though let's be honest, the rigorous training schedule of those competing in "Dancing With the Stars" will shape and tone anyone.
Marie Osmond likes to Help Mothers
After Marie gave birth to Brandon, her son, she thought she might have a case of the baby blues. This common condition occurs after the hormones from the baby are no longer in the mother’s system, creating an imbalance.
However, in Marie’s case, the feelings didn’t go away. It turned out that Marie was, in fact, suffering, like many others from postnatal melancholy. Sadly, this condition is often shrouded in shame, which prevents the mothers from getting the help they need. Marie would like to change that narrative. She now talks about the importance of women seeking treatment if they think they might have the same condition.
They Began Their Careers in Disneyland
The Osmond family went to California to try to meet with record producers and executives in order to land a major record deal. An appointment with one such producer was canceled because of his busy schedule, so instead, George took everyone to Disneyland. That sounds like the smart way to spend some sudden, unplanned time off.
There, the kids saw the Dapper Dan Disney barbershop quartet and almost on cue, started singing with them. A crowd gathered, including Tommy Walker, who was the director of guest relations at the park. He asked if they wanted to sing at Disney After Dark that night.
