Alan Osmond, who played piano and guitar and wrote and composed songs as the oldest member of The Osmonds, has died. He was 76.
Osmond died Monday night with his wife, Suzanne, and their eight sons at his side, his family announced. He was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 40 years ago, forcing him to retire from performing.
He is the second of the nine Osmond siblings to die; his brother Wayne died at age 73 on New Year’s Day 2025 after suffering a stroke.
Alan Ralph Osmond was born on June 22, 1949, in Ogden, Utah, the third child of Olive and George Osmond. His two older brothers, Virl and Tom, did not perform musically with the family.
