Donny Osmond recently celebrated a significant milestone in his marriage and shared a touching message. The singer and his wife tied the knot in 1978, even in the face of opposition from his father. Together, they have been blessed with five sons.
More than four decades ago, hearts were joined when former teen idol Donny Osmond and Debbie Glenn exchanged vows. Donny was 20, while Debbie was 19 at the time.
To celebrate their 45th anniversary, Osmond took to Instagram and posted a charming black-and-white throwback photo of the couple, both grinning to their ears. The musician wrote:
- “I asked this sweet little girl named Debbie Glenn to marry me 45 years ago today. It was the best decision of my life. 👩❤️👨”

Fans also join in the fun, celebrating Osmond’s profound anniversary. One fan shared, “I remember when you got married. A million young hearts were broken. Congratulations ❤️ ❤️ ❤️.”
Another added jubilantly, “😂16 year old me was so sad when you asked Debbie Glenn to marry you 45 years ago today because I loved Donny Osmond liked every other girl! You know what? I am so happy for Donny and Debby, you knew! 45 and counting! Congratulations! I am so happy for and proud of you! God bless you! 💕👍🏻.”
Another wrote, “Happy 45th wedding 💒 anniversary to a truly special couple from whom many could learn a LOT ❤️👫 … especially in show business X.”
The journey to the altar presented its fair share of challenges for Donny Osmond. The singer, known for his “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” hit, faced strong opposition from his father, who had concerns about the impact on his career.
In retrospect, Osmond’s father’s concerns seemed justified. However, the artist believes that his life would have been in disarray if he hadn’t chosen to marry Glenn. “Now I had someone who understood me and with whom I could build a future together,” he exclaimed.
Osmond and Glenn’s family grew as they welcomed five sons into their lives: Donald Jr., Jeremy, Brandon, Christopher, and Joshua. Their family expanded even further with the arrival of 13 grandchildren, and Donny Osmond thoroughly enjoys his role as a grandfather.

The singer crossed paths with the love of his life when she was just 15, and he dedicated three years to winning her over. Donny Osmond has consistently praised Debbie Glenn for being the stabilizing force in his life, helping him stay grounded and humble.
Osmond also acknowledges that their enduring marriage was not established in an instant. He humorously admits that in their disagreements, Debbie usually holds the upper hand, quipping, “When we argue, Debbie is always right – but I’m only half-joking.”
