Donny and Debbie welcomed their first son, Donald Clark Osmond Jr., on July 31, 1979. As Donny Jr. has shared, he was born after his father’s peak as a teen idol, meaning he missed the more intense moments of his dad’s career. I never saw the height of it all, like the crazed fans throwing themselves against the stage,” he told The Spectrum in 2016. Donny’s TV variety show Donny & Marie, which he starred in alongside his sister, had ended just six months before Donny Jr. was born.

Jeremy James Osmond, 43 years old
Donny and Debbie welcomed their second child, Jeremy Osmond, on June 8, 1981. In 2001, Donny spoke to The Guardian about his relationship with Jeremy, revealing that his second son went through a rebellious phase during his teenage years. According to the outlet, Jeremy reportedly pierced his tongue and eyebrow, dyed his hair with leopard spots, left the Mormon faith and church he was raised in, and didn’t speak to his family for four years. I think a lot of the rebellion came from the fact that he was my son — you know, this whole Osmond thing,” Donny explained.

Brandon also shared what it was like growing up with a famous dad. “There was one moment in my life where Donny Osmond and my dad crossed paths in my house.

He described a moment when he witnessed a call his dad received shortly after his grandfather, George Osmond, passed away in 2007.
