Donny Osmond Overwhelmed with Love as He Celebrates Arrival of 16th Grandchild and Shares Rare Family Photos
Donny Osmond, the beloved former teen idol and music legend, has touched hearts across social media after announcing the arrival of his 16th grandchild. Taking to Instagram, Donny proudly introduced his newest family member and followed up with a rare and intimate look at his growing family — a post that has since gone viral with messages of joy and admiration from fans around the world.
The post begins with a sleek promotional image of Donny accompanied by the humorous caption, “Told them I had a big family.” He followed this with a sweet snapshot of himself and his wife of 47 years, Debbie, sitting closely together, the words “Oh so you guys have a couple of kids” layered over it. The final photo shows the couple glowing with happiness, each holding a grandchild while surrounded by their five sons and many grandchildren, humorously captioned “Holy airball.” Donny added in the post: “16 grandchildren and counting.”
Support and admiration poured into the comments, with fans calling his family “beautiful,” “amazing,” and “a true blessing.” One longtime follower wrote, “I’ve been following you since I was in high school. So happy to see you still happy with your wife, kids, and grandkids.”
Donny and Debbie, who married in 1978, have built a strong family foundation. Their sons have each carved out their own paths: Don Jr. heads a marketing firm; Jeremy is a physical therapist; Brandon runs a design agency in Utah; Chris has explored music and TV, even appearing in Claim to Fame; and youngest son Joshua served as a missionary in Rome before marrying in 2020.
With his legacy extending well beyond the stage, Donny Osmond continues to inspire fans — not just through music, but through the deep bonds of family and love.
