Marie Osmond's 18-year-old son Michael Blosil has died, a family spokesman said Saturday.
"My family and I are devastated and in deep shock by the tragic loss of our dear Michael and ask that everyone respect our privacy during this difficult time," the entertainer said in a statement through spokesman Alan Nierob.
It's probably because of the Mormon church and the fact that Michael was gay.. So extremely depressing. I lived in Salt Lake for three and a half years. Mormons are nice people, but the culture is very different. I am very sad for the whole family.

The Mormons are apparently very focused on their cause... traditional marriage the focus of their cult pretty much.
lemon&lime, I agree sometimes people feel they have no choices, sad that his situation was such that he felt death was the only solution. A life lost. Tragic.
I really felt a sadness for Marie when I read the story this afternoon. To lose a child has to be the hardest thing any mother ever has to go through. I'm glad they are a strong loving family and will support her emotionally during this time.
