Donny Osmond, a beloved singer and performer for decades, has amassed hundreds of thousands of fans throughout his illustrious career.
When he shared a photo from Memorial Day weekend, a detail caught the attention of some observant followers that others might have overlooked!
Donny Osmond, who achieved immense fame as a teen heartthrob in the 1970s, remains as busy today as he was five decades ago.
In 2019, the 66-year-old ended an 11-year Las Vegas residency with his sister Marie and returned to Harrah’s Hotel and Casino, headlining his first solo residency, which he will resume in the fall of 2024.
After stepping on stage for his show, where he takes audiences on a “dynamic, energy-filled musical journey of his unparalleled life,” Osmond will head to the UK for a limited run of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. The TV host previously wowed live theatre audiences with his performance as Joseph in the hit musical from 1992 to 1998, and this time, he’s taking on the role of Pharaoh.
“I always knew I would return to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” Osmond said in a statement on X (formerly Twitter). “Having starred as Joseph in over 2,000 performances in this magical musical, I am now ready to channel my inner Elvis and assume the role of Pharaoh in Edinburgh starting this December [2024].”
In an earlier interview with People, Osmond explained that despite his busy schedule, family always comes first. “That’s what balances my life out. Family is the most important thing, because the curtain will come down eventually, and then what do you have?”
It seems Osmond has instilled these values in his children. When Memorial Day weekend came around, the entire family, including his kids and grandchildren, visited the burial site of Donny’s parents.
In the caption, he wrote, “A wonderful Memorial Day yesterday as we remember my wonderful parents. I miss my Mother and Father but I know we will be together again someday.”
Some eagle-eyed fans noticed a small but significant detail…
The significance of the Osmonds visiting their family’s gravesites, something not everyone tends to do.
One fan wrote, “It’s nice that literally your whole family was there to pay respect. Many graves never have any visitors, and that’s so sad. Love is something that some parents can’t show, because they were never shown it. Your parents showed all of you lots of love, and you were lucky.”
Another fan added, “So many people don’t visit graves anymore. They use it as a 3-day weekend to get away. Just my siblings visit my parents’ graves, which we learned to do as children. It was a given.”
“Lovely to see the whole family there ❤️,” another fan simply commented.
It’s heartwarming to see the entire Osmond clan unite to honor their beloved family members who have passed on.
