Does Marie Osmond’s Daughter Have Cancer?
No, Marie Osmond’s daughter does not have cancer. The confusion that arose, leading to the claim that her daughter had cancer began after she asked fans to pray for a family friend who had 25 brain tumors near her brain stem. The name of the lady whom she asked the prayers for is Bryanna and her daughter’s name is Briana, getting people confused if it was the same person.
More so, the actress revealed that Bryana is like a daughter to her. What some people who believed the singer was talking about her daughter missed is the fact that she made it known that Bryana is actually her best friend Darla’s daughter-in-law. She added that Bryanna’s husband whose name is Austin was also like a son to her, while their kids were like her own grandchildren.
On July 12, 2020, she took to her website to give details about Bryanna’s condition and how their families were very close.
What Led to Marie Osmond’s Son’s Suicide?
As indicated, one of Marie Osmond’s children, Michael Osmond, lost his life in 2010 as a result of suicide. He had a troubled life as a result of mental illness and bullying, which became the main things that led to his untimely death. The youngster was said to have battled depression and drug issues for several years before deciding to call it quits in a sad manner.
Marie revealed that her son was bullied because of his sobriety and this was something he found very difficult to deal with. More so, she made it known that she also got text messages from the horrendous people that bullied her son.
Describing Michael’s death as the hardest thing to have ever happened to her, the singer revealed that her son had called her prior to his death and expressed how difficult it was for him while crying. She assured him that she was going to come and see him a few days later, but that was not to be as he took his life by jumping off his eighth-floor apartment in Los Angeles a day later. He left behind a note in which he talked about his depression.
Apart from the difficulty he had with his mental health, things were not very well at home also. He did not have a relationship with his dad, even though his mom was always there for him. While this might not have directly contributed to his death, it was serious enough to force Michael to change his name from Blosil to Bryan. Michael was not the only one who had issues with Blosil; his other siblings were said to have encouraged Marie to leave Brian because they could no longer live with him, and it was made known that his sister, Jessica, also changed her name from Blosil to Osmond.
