Marie Osmond's Kid Heads to Rehab

It's not a good time to be Marie Osmond.


On tonight's "Larry King Live," the "Dancing with the Stars" star was blindsided by Larry King who asked if 16-year-old son Michael was in rehab. What would Brigham Young do?! She confirmed that he was admitted last week -- the same week Marie's father died at his home in Utah.

Osmond got choked up while talking about her son, telling Larry, "He is the most amazing kid ... it's been a hard week." Still, Marie managed to go on with the "Dancing" show.

106. I'M DISAPPOINTED IN LARRY KING. YOU WAS OUT OF LINE TALKING ABOUT MARIE 16YRS OLD SON. WE DO NOT NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HER SON, UNLESS SHE DECIDES SHE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT. IT IS NOT ANY OF YOUR BUSINESS OR OUR BUSINESS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS. IT WAS IN POOR TASTE TO BRING IT UP TO HER WITH OUT HER KNOWING WHAT YOU WAS GOING TO SAY. I NORMALLLY ENJOY YOUR PROGRAM. IF THIS WAS YOUR SON, WOULD YOU LIKE SOMEBODY TO ANOUNCE IT WITH OUT YOUR PERMISSION.

112. Larry is married to Marie's best friend. I doubt the question was a surprise. I'm sure she just wanted to get it out there before the tabloids plastered it on all the covers.

I feel for her.

114. OMG...there are so many stupid people here....First of all, Her Dad passed away after he saw her dance on DWTS and he was very very proud of her, he died the next day...she went on competing for him....Secondly...Her Dad was to have been on the Oprah show with the entire Osmond family the day he died and as a family, they decided to go on with the show just a few days after he died because that is what he would have wanted them to do. And as far as her being on mother....her kids range from ages 5-24.....she takes care of those kids on a daily basis....she choses to do things (dance for a few weeks, do worthwhile Charity work) and work (multi-million dollar doll business) outside of the home, that makes her a terrible mother? Women aren't supposed to leave the family home. Oh please....get a life. And kids from every walk of life, good familes and bad.....can get into drugs.

118. Hey teach, they know it. They just have nothin better 2 do. Don't respond and the haters will go away.. Love Donnie and Marie.

119. I love Marie..her whole family is amazing and she has every right to go forward with the show. It is the nature of the business and I would bet my bottom dollar she is a great mom with kids who love her. Her 16 year old is no different the 1/2 the kids across the US, the only difference is her son's struggle will be publicized.

120. Hey BRIT,,Us haters aren't going away. Maybe for a while but the OSMOND's have many haters. So if some go away, others will return. After all they ARE a bunch of low class freaks!! I loved the look on Marie's face when Mr. King asked her about her crackhead son> PRICELESS!
