Marie Osmond Son Stephen



Michael Blosil left behind a suicide note. Blosil had reportedly suffered depression. Michael was the second child adopted by Marie. In one of these more recent pictures, Michael is the middle age child standing in the front with the stripped vest sweater.

The couple had ended their marriage of nearly 20 years. Michael Blosil was one of eight children, and one of five adopted.

Michael Blosil’s father Brian and Marie issued the following statement roughly two years ago about their divorce “Our marriage has always been a faithful one, and neither of us is assigning fault for the divorce.”


Olive Marie Osmond (born October 13, 1959) is an American actress, singer, doll designer, and a member of the show business family, The Osmonds. Although she was never part of her family’s singing group, she gained success as a solo country music artist in the 1970s and 1980s. Her best known song is a cover of the country pop ballad “Paper Roses.” In 1976, she and her singer brother Donny Osmond began hosting the TV variety show Donny & Marie.
There have been conflicting reports about whether Blosil may have struggled with depression. Vernon said he did not have any information.
“He’s dealing with a lot of issues,” she told CNN’s Larry King at the time. “I don’t feel comfortable talking for him. I think he’ll have to deal with that.”
Osmond did say one of the issues troubling him was the fact that he was adopted.
“He is the most amazing kid …,” she added before beginning to cry.
Osmond herself has struggled with depression over the years, as she disclosed in her 2001 book, “Behind the Smile: My Journey Out ofPostpartum Depression.”
Blosil was one of Osmond’s five adopted children. She also has three other children from two marriages. Osmond divorced Brian Blosil in 2007 after two decades of marriage. She and her first husband, Stephen Craig, divorced in 1985.
In a statement after his death, Osmond said she and her family were in shock. Her publicist declined to provide any additional comment from Osmond on Monday.
Osmond earned fame at age 13 with the hit song “Paper Roses,” and starred with her brother, Donny, on television’s “Donny and Marie Show” during the 1970s.
The siblings perform a musical variety show regularly at the Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. The hotel said the shows were canceled over the weekend and performances would resume on March 9.
