Has she had significant facial rejuvenation? All of the quirky little character marks seem to be gone from her face.

 

I don't care what she does with her time, but I WAS curious about that.


Oh without a doubt. Those lips! She look like she has had a ton of "procedures"

And just who are you to judge just how another person should grieve?

 

 

 

Just because you would grieve a certain way, does not mean that that's the only way to grieve.

And to set the record straight for those sitting in narrow minded judgment, Marie returned to work two weeks after her son's death.

 

She has said in interviews that the stage and the opportunity to work saved her.

@Love my grandkids   Well good for you. 

 

I attended a cook-out one week after burying an infant son.  I guess you cannot stand me either.

My mother returned to work very shortly after my father died.  She said she would have paid her boss to let her work.  So I understand what Marie said in those interviews.

And I pray that you never bury a child, because it is the worst thing a parent can go through. I have gone to support groups for parents that have lost a child. And there is no right or wrong way to grieve, it's a loss greater than no other. 

 

Shame on any mother for lacking empathy and belittling another mom how she grieves with the loss of a child.

Re: Marie Osmond hawking Publishers Clearing house on TV Comercials

  As far as Marie returning to work 2 weeks after her son's death,people handle grief differently.There is no right or wrong. Working helped her cope with her loss.A week after my MIL passed I told my husband to return to work. He was a wonderful son & the grief was eating at him.Being immersed in the B.S. of work occupied his mind & allowed him begin to heal.

  As far as Marie working,that's a good thing. When the Osmonds became famous years ago their parent's insisted that all their earnings be pooled together for the good of the family.Their 2 oldest sons had been born deaf & needed a lot of medical care. That's how the group was formed.

  Everyone had a job working within the family based on their abilities. All money earned was equally distributed. Over the years Donny & Marie became the main income earners.Some of the brothers developed health issues. Some of their careers stalled. Donny & Marie have always stepped up to take care of their siblings.

  Their devotion to the wellbeing of their brothers is commendable.Marie works hard.She will never turn down an opportunity to make an honest buck.Good for her.

Re: Marie Osmond hawking Publishers Clearing house on TV Comercials

What surprises me about this is that Marie Osmond is a Mormon. They oppose addictive substances and behaviors such as drugs, including caffeine, and gambling. Entering the PCH sweepstakes is gambling. I don't care how she earns money. I would never enter that contest. To each his own.
