Why Marie Osmond Doesn't Want Her Kids To Inherit Her Fortune

Hollywood may be full of heirs who’ll never have to worry about securing a source of income, but most working-class people don’t have that privilege. Despite having a rich, famous mom, Marie Osmond’s kids don’t either. During an interview with Us Weekly, Osmond revealed that she won’t be sharing her money with her kids. “Honestly, why would you enable your child to not try to be something? I don’t know anybody who becomes anything if they’re just handed money,” Marie said in January 2023. “To me, the greatest gift you can give your child is a passion to search out who they are inside and to work. I mean, I’ve done so many things from designing dolls [and much more]. I love trying [and] I wanna try everything. I’m a finisher.”

She continued, “That’s one of my rules with my kids. If you start it, you finish it, you don’t ever have to do it again, but you gotta finish. I just think all [an inheritance] does is breed laziness and entitlement.” Marie also claimed she intended to spend her fortune and enjoy her days with her husband. In 2020, however, Osmond proclaimed during an episode of “The Talk” that she’d earmarked her money for her charity, per Fox News. Perhaps she’ll do both.
