Tom is the second eldest of the Osmond family and is 71 years old. He was born on Oct. 26, 1947.

Like his older brother, Virl, Tom is also hearing impaired. In fact, he was born almost completely deaf, but has regained some hearing from medical treatment. The hearing impairments of the two is what prompted their younger siblings to create their musical group in the first place so they could pay for their hearing aids. Both Virl and Tom were the inspirations for Children's Miracle Network.

Tom and Virl have only made occasional performances with their siblings due to their hearing impairments. 

Tom was previously married to Lyn Heslop from 1972 until 1989 and they have four kids together. He and his second wife Carolyn married in 1989 and have two children together. They currently reside in Utah.
