From the Osmonds to solo stardom: A Journey
Marie Osmond, a member of the Osmond family, first captured the hearts of viewers with her regular appearances on The Andy Williams Show in 1962. But Marie’s career got off in 1973, when she was fourteen years old. “Paper Roses,” a country-inspired song she created, peaked at the top of the US Country charts and reached the top five of the Billboard Magazine Pop list. It was an instant hit. This success marked the beginning of a fantastic solo career.
After joining The Osmonds, Marie’s brother, Donny Osmond, rose to fame. The charismatic couple rose to prominence in the entertainment industry, not just for their television show, but also as two of the most recognisable Mormon figures.
Accepting and Loving One Another
Marie Osmond’s relationship with the Mormon church was put to the test when she openly admitted to supporting her adopted daughter Jessica, who identifies as homosexual. Jessica Marie Blosil is Marie Osmond’s eldest child with her previous spouse Brian Blosil. Jessica was just two years old when she was adopted. Marie and Brian’s marriage ended in 2007, however the divorce was amicable. Marie then married her first husband, Steve Craig, who had changed vocations from football player to public speaker.
