4/4 🧵 Alan Osmond’s role in that story was bigger than just “oldest brother.” He was part performer, part stabilizer, part family architect. He performed with the group from childhood and later stepped back after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1987, but remained central to the Osmond family’s public and business legacy. The family announcement says he died on April 20, 2026, at age 76, with his wife Suzanne and their eight sons at his bedside. So the short version is: The Osmonds weren’t just a pop group — they were a multigenerational entertainment institution, and Alan was one of the pillars holding it up. Deseret News FOX 13
