Donny Osmond Shares Heartwarming Experience of Introducing His Legendary Career to His 14 Grandchildren: “They Treat You a Bit Differently”
Donny Osmond — the iconic entertainer with a legendary career spanning decades — recently opened up in an exclusive interview, sharing heartfelt and humorous reflections on life as a grandfather. One of the most touching stories he told was about introducing his 14 grandchildren to the remarkable world he’s built through music, television, and live performance. And as it turns out, they treat him a little differently than his adoring fans do.
Known to the world as one half of the beloved Osmond Brothers duo, Donny has been cherished by fans of all ages for generations. But to his grandkids, he’s not a global superstar — he’s simply “Grandpa Donny.” He shared how his grandchildren are often surprised by the attention he gets from fans and the legacy he’s built over the years. When he takes them to public events where he’s recognized, their reactions are a mix of amazement, confusion, and sweet disbelief.
It’s a delightful and meaningful experience for Donny, who treasures the opportunity to share glimpses of his showbiz world with the next generation. From chart-topping hits to his successful Las Vegas residency with his sister Marie, Donny’s career is packed with highlights. Still, his favorite role may just be the one off-stage — as a proud and loving grandfather.
In the interview, Donny spoke of the unique bond he shares with each grandchild and the immense joy he finds in watching them grow. His story is a powerful reminder that no matter how bright the spotlight shines, family remains the truest and most enduring source of love and purpose.
Donny Osmond continues to create unforgettable memories, not just for fans, but for the family that stands beside him — proving that the greatest legacy is the one built at home.
