Even though Marie Osmond suffered a pretty nasty knee injury during a recent show in Las Vegas, the legendary performer made it clear that nothing was going to stop her from giving it her all for the remaining performances of her residency. Just days before she and her brother Donny Osmond are set to close out their incredible 11-year run at the Flamingo Resort & Hotel, Marie took to Instagram to give her fans a candid look at her bruised leg. Let’s just say it’s not pretty, but it’s not stopping her!
Marie’s Resilience Shines Through
In a video she posted on Instagram on November 13, the 59-year-old star kicked things off with her signature charm. “Hi everybody! We just finished The Talk today, and I’m heading back to Vegas — I’m so excited!” she said, her enthusiasm unwavering despite her injury. She went on to assure her fans, “Only four more shows… but I told everybody that I’m going to do them, no matter what. I don’t care if I fell or not. But I just wanted to let you know that I’m not faking it. Here… see?”
Marie didn’t shy away from showing the full extent of her injury. She panned the camera down her leg, revealing a massive bruise that extended from just below her kneecap all the way down to her ankle. “Look, this is my knee. It’s under the kneecap and it went down into my ankle,” she explained, pointing out the black and blue area. “The other side isn’t as bruised, but trust me, it’s not great either.”

The show then aired a clip of the incident, where Marie can be heard saying into the microphone, “I can’t walk, I can’t walk. I think I broke my knee!” In true sibling fashion, Donny, 61, rushed to her side, asking, “You did what?!” Marie replied with a mix of humor and concern, “Yeah, I think I broke it.”

During the episode of The Talk, she said, “Those of you who bought tickets for the last week, I will be there.” She shared a sweet moment with her brother, saying, “Donny was so sweet, he said, ‘I can handle the last week.’ And I said, ‘I think they want to see Donny and Marie.’” Her commitment to delivering a memorable experience for her fans is truly commendable.
