The Osmond family is one of the most famous showbiz dynasties in America.

It all started when brothers Alan, Merrill, Wayne, and Jay formed a barbershop quartet as children, rising to fame on The Andy Williams Show in the 60s. Younger brothers Donny and Jimmy later joined the band, which became known as The Osmonds. 

Following in the footsteps of other musical families like The Jacksons, The Osmonds exploded in popularity in the 70s, partly thanks to their clean-cut Mormon image. The group's hit songs include One Bad Apple, Love Me for a Reason, and Hold Her Tight, and collectively the clan is estimated to have sold over 100 million records worldwide.

With over six decades in the spotlight, read on to take a look at where The Osmonds are today and discover who's made the most money over the years. All dollar amounts in US dollars. 

Born on 19 October 1945 in Ogden, Utah, Virl is the eldest Osmond sibling.

His net worth is currently unknown.

Never heard of Virl? He was born with a hearing disability that prevented him from joining The Osmonds. 

However, he still participated in the family business in other ways, such as helping out backstage and taking photographs of his younger siblings for publicity purposes. 

Virl, pictured here with his younger brother Tom, has also worked as a producer and is known for the made-for-TV movie The Gift of Love (1978), which starred his younger sister Marie. He’s made appearances on several TV shows, including The Oprah Winfrey Show and the 2001 documentary Inside the Osmonds.

Today, little is known about his private life.

However, we know that Virl (pictured with his brother Donny Osmond) is a proud father to a massive brood of seven children – Hyrum, Virginia, David, Aaron, Joseph, Olivia, and Jared – who he shares with his ex-wife Christopher Marie Carroll. 

Born on 26 October 1947, Tom is the second eldest Osmond sibling.

Like his older brother Virl, Tom's net worth is currently unknown.

Another lesser-known Osmond sibling, Tom was also born with a hearing disability that left him almost completely deaf, meaning he was unable to join the family band. Later in life, however, he gained some of his hearing back through surgery.

Rather than let his disability hold him back, Tom impressively learned to play several instruments and he's even appeared on stage to perform with his siblings (pictured together in 2008) on rare occasions.

For the most part, though, Tom stays out of the spotlight. He worked for the United States Postal Service for 28 years before retiring in 2014.

Tom (pictured here with his sister Marie) keeps his private life on the down-low. 

We know that he married Lyn Heslop in 1972 and that the former couple have five children together, including one who sadly died as an infant.

He’s now married to Carolyn Osmond, with whom he has two children. Tom is also a stepfather to two kids from Carolyn's previous marriage, and the family reportedly resides in Ephraim, Utah.

Born on 22 June 1949, Alan is the third-born Osmond sibling. 

Like his brothers Virl and Tom, his net worth is unknown. 

Alan was one of the original members of the family barbershop quartet and he rose to fame on The Andy Williams Show in the 1960s.

During this period, he also served in the California Army National Guard.

By the time younger brothers Donny and Jimmy had joined the band, Alan was demoted to backing singer, though he contributed to writing some of The Osmonds' greatest hits, including Goin’ Home and Crazy Horses.

Alan also dabbled in acting in his youth, most notably appearing in the Western TV series The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters between 1963 and 1964 along with his younger brothers Wayne, Merrill, and Jay.

Additionally he’s produced several TV projects, such as the variety show Donny & Marie and The Osmond Family Christmas Special.

Now in his 70s, Alan prefers to stay out of the spotlight.

The devoted family man is married to Suzanne Pinegar (pictured), and they have eight kids. 

The couple raised their massive brood in Missouri but now reside in Orem, Utah.

Wayne, born on 28 August 1951, is the fourth Osmond sibling. 

Like his older brothers, his net worth is something of a mystery. 

Wayne was an original member of the family barbershop quartet.

The multi-talented musician can sing, as well as play an impressive range of instruments including the guitar, clarinet, flute, violin, banjo, saxophone, drums, piano, and bagpipes.

The skilled musician also helped to write many of The Osmonds hits.

As mentioned, Wayne appeared in the ABC Western series The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters alongside Jay, Merrill, and Alan (pictured together). 

He then went on to flex his acting chops in the 1989 holiday movie It Nearly Wasn’t Christmas.

Meanwhile, his production credits include the TV movie The Gift of Love and the variety show Donny & Marie.

In more recent years, Wayne has shunned the spotlight. 

He married Kathlyn White in 1974 and the long-time couple share five children.

The family man leads a quiet life in the city of Bountiful, Utah and, like the rest of his family (some pictured together here), he's a dedicated member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Born on 30 April 1953, Merrill Osmond is the fifth-born sibling in the famous family. 

His estimated net worth is a respectable $5 million (£4m).

Merrill was an original member of the family barbershop quartet, and was later the co-lead vocalist and bass guitarist of The Osmonds. 

You can hear Merrill's voice on the tracks One Bad Apple, Let Me In, and Love Me For A Reason and, along with his brothers Alan and Wayne, he co-wrote many of the band's smash hits.

As mentioned, Merrill acted in Western The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters in the 1960s.

He’s also dabbled in producing, most notably serving as an executive producer on the variety show Donny & Marie. 

In fact, Merrill has collaborated with his famous family on a range of TV projects, including The Osmond Family Christmas Special and the TV movie The Gift of Love. Most recently, he competed along with his brother Donny in Celebrity Family Feud this year. 

Outside of the family band, Merrill has achieved moderate success as a solo artist.

Most notably, he released the country duet You’re Here To Remember (I’m Here To Forget) with Jessica Boucher in 1987.

He’s dropped numerous solo albums over the decades, with his latest offering being 2022’s Now is the Time.

However, Merrill announced his retirement last year and completed his final American tour in April 2022. Donny Osmond is shown here embracing his older brother during his emotional final performance. 

Merrill married Mary Carlson in 1973 and the couple have six children: Troy, Justin, Heather, Sheila, Travis, and Shane. Troy sadly passed away in 2018 at the age of 33. 

In 2016, Merrill revealed via Instagram that he lived in Utah, though little else is known about his private life. 

Jay, born on 2 March 1955, is the sixth of the eight Osmond siblings.

His net worth is unknown. 

Jay was an original member of the barbershop quartet and rose to fame on The Andy Williams Show. 

He later became the drummer for The Osmonds. Due to his more guttural tone, Jay also provided the vocals for the band's more rock 'n' roll-inspired tracks, including Crazy Horses and Having a Party.

Jay starred in The Travels of Jaimie McPheeters with his older siblings Wayne, Merrill, and Alan in the 60s. 

He also made a cameo in the 2013 comedy movie Awful Nice, appearing as himself.

Additionally, he's teamed up with his famous family to produce the TV projects Donny & Marie and The Gift of Love.

The American star temporarily relocated to Chester, England in 2019 to work on a stage play about his famous family. The Osmonds: A New Musical, which was written by Jay, premiered in the UK in February 2022.

Speaking about the inspiration behind the theatrical hit, Jay revealed: "I’ve wanted to tell my story for such a long time, and the opportunity to create this beautiful musical, a sort of 'living autobiography', seemed the perfect way to do so."

Next up, Jay will return to the UK to appear in the British musical NOW That’s What I Call A Musical this September. He said, “I am so excited to be back in the UK and performing live on stage in NOW That’s What I Call A Musical."

As for Jay’s personal life, he wed Kandilyn Harris in 1987. 

The couple welcomed three children together but ultimately divorced in 2011.

Jay is now married to Karen Randall (pictured). The couple live in Star Valley, Wyoming.

Donny, born on 9 December 1957, is undoubtedly the most famous Osmond brother. 

His net worth is estimated between $8 million (£6.2m) and $18 million (£14m).

Donny made his singing debut on The Andy Williams Show in 1963 at just five years old, wowing with his adorable rendition of You Are My Sunshine.

He later joined the family band, and with the addition of Donny the group became known as The Osmonds.

When The Osmonds hit the peak of their fame in the 70s, Donny became the breakout star.

Though he still performed with his brothers, Donny launched his solo career in 1971 with the release of The Donny Osmond Album. 

Today, he's a hugely successful musician and his biggest hits include Puppy Love, Go Away Little Girl, and Soldier of Love. 

Despite a decade-spanning career and 18 studio albums under his belt, the 66-year-old star shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. His latest album, Start Again, was released in 2021. 

Donny has also found success on the screen, starting with Donny & Marie, the variety show that he starred in with his younger sister in the 1970s.

He also hosted the game show Pyramid for two years between 2002 and 2004.

Donny has also appeared on several reality TV shows, including Dancing with the Stars and The Masked Singer in 2019 (pictured). Most recently, he competed on Celebrity Family Feud alongside his brother Merrill, wife Debbie, son Chris, and grandson Dylan.

Donny is also an established actor. His credits include the popular sitcom Friends, medical-drama series Diagnosis: Murder, and the comedy movie College Road Trip.

Furthermore, he’s lent his voice to several animated projects, such as Johnny Bravo, Bob the Builder: Built to Be Wild, and Disney’s Mulan.

Donny is shown here at the 1998 premiere of Mulan.

Donny has graced the stage as well as the screen, appearing in productions such as Little Johnny Jones, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and Beauty and the Beast.

His stellar performance as Joseph on stage earned him the title role in the 1999 film adaptation of the popular musical (pictured). Next, he will return to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in December, appearing in the UK version of the stage play as the character Pharaoh.

His most recent Broadway appearance was back in 2010, when he starred with his younger sister in Donny & Marie – A Broadway Christmas.

Donny and his younger sister Marie had an 11-year residency at the swanky Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel & Casino, though their 1,730-show run finally came to an end in November 2019 (pictured).

"I want to express my deepest thanks to everyone who came to see the show during our 11-year run here in Vegas", Donny wrote on Instagram after the final performance. "You've traveled from all over the world to see us perform. We feel and sincerely appreciate your loyal support." ⁣

Donny and Marie each took home $1.6 million (£1.3m) per year for the lucrative residency, plus a 40% cut of the box office gross.

Donny married Debra Glen in 1978, and they have five children. 

After travelling for Donny’s work and living in Toronto and Chicago, the couple finally settled down in Provo, Utah. 

Their lavish family home (pictured), where they've lived for more than 25 years, boasts sprawling gardens, a vineyard, a swimming pool, an outdoor man cave, and a recording studio.

Born on 13 October 1959, Marie is the second-youngest Osmond sibling and the only sister in the clan. 

Her estimated net worth is a phenomenal $20 million (£16m).

Though she wasn’t a member of The Osmonds, Marie still appeared on The Andy Williams Show with her famous family during her childhood.

She went on to achieve solo success as a country singer with the release of her debut single, Paper Roses, in 1973.

Marie’s hit songs include Read My Lips, You’re Still New to Me, and There’s No Stopping Your Heart. 

Though she reached the peak of her recording success in the 70s and 80s, Marie still makes music today. She has released 12 studio albums, with her latest being 2021’s Unexpected.

Marie’s TV career officially began in 1976, when she starred in the aforementioned Donny & Marie, alongside her big brother Donny (pictured together).

Donny & Marie was later relaunched as a talk show that aired between 1998 and 2000.

In 2019, Marie joined the panel of ABC's The Talk. However, she left the popular chat show after just one season, amid rumours of a feud with her co-hosts Sharon Osbourne and Sheryl Underwood.

Marie has boosted her bank balance with acting and has appeared in a diverse range of TV projects over the years, including the romance movie The Gift of Love (1978), period piece I Married Wyatt Earp (1983), and holiday flick The Road Home for Christmas (2019).

She's also lent her voice to projects like kids series Enchanted Musical Playhouse, and hosted Ripley's Believe It or Not!.

Marie most recently appeared in the TV shows Fantasy Island and The Bold and the Beautiful in 2023.

Multi-talented Marie is an author with three best-selling books under her belt.

Her first, 2001's Behind the Smile: My Journey Out, discussed her struggle with postpartum depression (pictured).

This was followed up by her autobiography, Might as Well Laugh About it Now, in 2009. Four years later, she released The Key is Love: My Mother's Wisdom, a Daughter's Gratitude.

As mentioned, Marie has also benefited from her 11-year residency at the Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel & Casino (pictured), although this ended in 2019.

Marie was taking home a juicy $1.6 million (£1.3m) per year thanks to the gig, and she also split a 40% cut of the box office gross with Donny.

Marie is married to Steve Craig and shares a son, Stephen Jr., with him. She also has children Jessica, Rachael, Brianna, Matthew, Brandon, and Abigail, as well as a son named Michael Bryan who passed away in 2010, with her ex-husband Brian Blosil.

Marie owns a lavish mansion in Utah that boasts stunning mountainside views. The enviable family home also features a cinema, a sauna, a pool with an island in the middle, and a recreation room.

Born on 16 April 1963, Jimmy is the youngest Osmond sibling. 

His estimated net worth is a cool $8 million (£6.5m).

Known back then as "Little Jimmy Osmond", the former child star made his debut on The Andy Williams Show in 1967.

Though he’s performed with The Osmonds over the years, Jimmy is best known for his solo career. He impressively achieved his first gold record when he was seven with his Japanese rendition of My Little Darling.

His song Long Haired Lover from Liverpool, released when he was just nine, scored him a place in the Guinness Book of World Records as the youngest performer to have a number one hit on the UK Singles Charts.

As a solo star, Jimmy has six gold records, one platinum record, and two gold albums under his belt. His biggest hits include Tweedle Dee and I’m Gonna Knock On Your Door.

Like many of his siblings, Jimmy has found success on the screen. 

He made his acting debut in the 1978 comedy flick The Great Brain, with other acting credits including TV shows Fame and The Love Boat.

Jimmy is a successful producer and has collaborated with his famous family on TV movies such as The Gift of Love and It Nearly Wasn’t Christmas, as well as the documentary Inside The Osmonds.

He's also served as a consultant to Warner Brothers to develop new content, and was also approached by the Chinese government to work as a producer and consultant for live entertainment shows in China and the US.

Like his older brother Donny, Jimmy is a bona fide stage star, and he owns the Osmond Family Theater in Branson, Missouri. 

He made his stage debut in 2004 in a production of Boogie Nights in Blackpool, England.

The following year, he brought his Jimmy Osmond’s American Jukebox Show to Blackpool, where he was joined on stage by brothers Jay and Wayne.

He’s also starred in productions of Grease and Chicago, and in 2008 he made his debut in a British pantomime by starring as Buttons in Cinderella.

Over the years, Jimmy has lined his pockets by appearing on several British reality TV shows. 

Most famously, he was a campmate on the popular survival series I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2005 (pictured).

When asked by This is Money if he'd ever been paid "silly money" for a job, Jimmy said: "When I did I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2005, I was shocked by how much they paid me. Because I turned it down three times, the money just kept growing. I was one of the highest paid on the show. I signed a contract so I can't disclose how much, but it was a good six-figure sum".

He's also appeared on quiz shows such as All Star Family Fortunes and Celebrity Pointless, as well as on cooking competitions like Celebrity Come Dine With Me and Celebrity MasterChef.

Jimmy married Michelle Larson in 1992 (pictured), and they have four kids together: Sophia, Zachary, Wyatt, and Isabella.

Like much of the rest of his famous family, Jimmy has settled down in Utah, in the city of Provo.

However, he revealed to This is Money in 2015 that he actually owns four properties: two in Utah, one in Idaho, and a secret family "getaway condo" in an undisclosed location.
