Donny Osmond’s grandnephew, Stephen James Craig Jr., recently celebrated his 10th birthday, and fans were amazed by the uncanny resemblance he shares with Donny. Stephen is the eldest grandson of Donny’s younger sister, Marie, who has eight grandchildren in all.
Marie Osmond shared a cute video of herself and Stephen dancing together as she wished him a happy birthday. “Happy birthday to my oldest grandson, Stephen!! Every year, I can’t believe how big you’re getting! We even wear the same size shoe now! Always remember how much Grandma loves you!!!!!” she wrote.

A user left a lengthy note wishing Stephen a happy birthday and Marie a happy holiday; it read, “OMGOSH, happy birthday, Stephen you are absolutely adorable. You look so much like Uncle @donnyosmond at that age. Absolutely love you all. Have the best holiday ever Marie. I can hardly wait to see you again. Love you so much. Love this post as always.”
The Osmonds love it big
When it comes to family, the Osmond siblings love to play it large. Donny is a father of five and grandfather to 14 adorable grandchildren. Like her brother, Marie has several grandchildren and birthed eight kids whom she shares with her ex-husbands Stephen Craig Jr. and Brian Blosil. Sadly, she lost one of her sons in 2010.

Donny and Marie often spend time with their families and share their joyous Osmond moments on social media, to their fans’ delight. “I consciously make an effort to take a back seat and just be grandpa, not a celebrity, not the head of the house with my wife, none of that. It’s just like grandpa’s in the corner playing with the grandkids. That’s what I like to do,” Donny told PEOPLE in August.
