Everything We Know About Marie Osmond's Health Troubles

Marie Osmond had a near run-in with breast cancer. While speaking at the 2023 Smart Women Luncheon and Expo, she revealed that she'd had 17 breast tumors surgically removed, per Savannah Now. "It was intense," said Osmond. The entertainer didn't divulge whether or not the tumors required additional treatment or radiation, which is sometimes utilized to treat non-cancerous tumors, per NIH. Osmond also offered breast cancer patients a few uplifting words. "Stay positive," she said during her speech. "I believe in miracles. Put it in God's hands. We can get through these terrible bumps in the road."

Osmond — whose friends Olivia Newton-John and Suzanne Somers both died of breast cancer — also helped to amplify Newton-John's foundation prior to her death. "My dear friend Olivia has just started the Olivia Newton-John Foundation to find kinder ways to treat, prevent and cure all cancers, with a strong focus on plant medicine," posted Osmond to Facebook in 2020. "So please follow her new page and give your love and support towards her dream of [realizing] a world beyond cancer. God bless her and all of those who have dealt or are dealing with this devastating disease."
