Donny Osmond, one of America’s most cherished entertainers, has had a remarkable career spanning decades, but he’s also faced ongoing health struggles. On Wednesday, he shared a touching video from a hospital bed where he appeared to be under sedation, sparking concern among fans.
Osmond began performing professionally before the age of six and has been adored by fans ever since. Now 67, he has endured multiple health scares over the years. In a past interview with *Metro*, he recalled a frightening incident during the height of “Osmondmania” in Manchester, when a fan accidentally jabbed him in the eye with a pen, nearly causing serious injury.
In 2019, during his final Las Vegas residency with his sister Marie, Donny sensed something was wrong mid-performance. He later revealed to the *Mirror* that he lost sensation in his arms and legs during the show but kept dancing until the end. It was later discovered that injuries from his *Strictly Come Dancing* win in 2009 had caused his spine to shift. Though he underwent surgery, complications followed.
“I thought I was in the clear, but then a secondary infection left me unable to move,” Donny said. He went through months of rehab and needed a cane to walk, fearing he might never regain full mobility. Thankfully, he recovered.
Now, Donny is once again in the hospital. In a video posted to Instagram, he appears in a hospital gown with medical tubes attached while being treated. He’s heard joking and singing Disney’s *“Let’s Get Down to Business”* from *Mulan*, even as the sedation takes effect.
“I’m starting to get dizzy,” he said just before dozing off. The clip later shows him waking up and continuing to sing.
Donny reassured fans in the caption: “What better way to power through a procedure than singing your all-time favorite rally song?! I’m feeling all better now!”
Fans flooded the post with love and support. One wrote, “Oh this hurt my heart. Feel better soon.” Another added, “So glad you’re okay, but sorry you had to go through surgery.” Others sent healing wishes and encouragement during his recovery.
