Marie Osmond released a statement that said

"My son Michael is an amazing young man, shown through his courage in facing his issues. As his mother, I couldn't be more proud of him," she said in a statement. "The press and public have always been kind and gracious in the past, and I know they will continue to respect our privacy during this time."

Marie and her husband of 20 years, music producer Brian Blosil, divorced in April. She has 8 children in total. Her oldest son Stephen is from her first marriage to Stephen Craig who played basketball for BYU.
