Donny Osmond is a grandfather — again. The former teen idol's son Chris and his wife, Alta, welcomed a baby girl on Tuesday (Nov. 24), naming her Aussie Rae Osmond.
Closer Weekly reports that the 62-year-old singer, actor and entertainer turned to Instagram on Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 26) to share a series of photos of the adorable new arrival with her mother and father.

Chris Osmond, 29, also shared the good news via social media, writing, "Today I am overcome with so much gratitude and love for my beautiful family. God has blessed us with an angel ... Words cannot express the love we feel for this little one. Just in the last two days she’s brought a whole new meaning to life for Al and I. This truly is what it’s all about right here! We’re excited to be taking her home today. I can’t think of a better way to spend Thanksgiving!"
