The "Risqué" Reality TV Debut: RHOSLC and Britani Bateman
Jared Osmond was introduced to the *Real Housewives* universe during Season 5 of *The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City* through his complicated, on-again, off-again relationship with new "friend of the housewives," Britani Bateman.
The pair's dynamic quickly became a central storyline, characterized by intense arguments, breakups, and dramatic reconciliations. Britani herself described their connection as a "sloppy situationship," which provided ample drama for the Bravo cameras.
The relationship has proven to be a rollercoaster ride. During the Season 6 premiere, Britani famously used her catchphrase, "I have an announcement," to declare that her engagement to Jared had been called off. However, the saga didn't end there.
Recent reports, even as of late 2025, suggest the couple has reunited. Britani Bateman has provided multiple updates confirming that despite the drama, they are back together, showcasing the passionate yet volatile nature of their bond.
The high-profile nature of his appearance drew immediate attention, not just from fans, but from his own family. His uncle, legendary performer Donny Osmond, publicly commented on his nephew's reality TV venture, describing it as "risqué."
The Regret and Controversy Behind the Camera
While his time on RHOSLC generated significant buzz for the show, Jared Osmond has since expressed deep regret about his participation. He claimed that he felt exploited and "thrown under the bus" by the production.
This sentiment is not uncommon among reality TV participants, but for someone from a family known for its carefully curated, wholesome public image, the experience was particularly jarring. Jared's appearance on the show—which often delves into personal and sometimes messy conflicts—stood in stark contrast to the legacy of the Osmond Brothers and Donny & Marie.
The Osmond Family Reaction and 'Risqué' Label
Donny Osmond's comments were a clear indication of the family's distance from the reality TV spectacle. When asked about Jared's role on RHOSLC, Donny stated that while he loves his nephew, the show is a bit "risqué" for his taste. This reaction highlights the cultural clash between the traditional values associated with the Osmond name and the modern, often scandalous, world of Bravo television.
Business and Legal Entity Drama
Beyond the relationship drama, Jared's background includes serious business controversies. Documents from a legal dissolution process surfaced, alleging that Jared had concealed "significant business activity" within his company, Osmond Development, from his former partner. This legal entanglement adds another layer of complexity to his public profile, portraying him not just as a reality TV personality, but as a high-stakes Utah Power Player with a complicated corporate history.
The Future of Jared Osmond and RHOSLC
Despite his regret over filming, Jared Osmond's life remains intertwined with the *Real Housewives of Salt Lake City* narrative, primarily through his ongoing, unpredictable relationship with Britani Bateman. The couple's constant breakups and makeups ensure they remain relevant to the show's fanbase.
Whether Jared will appear in future seasons remains to be seen, but his story serves as a fascinating case study in the collision of celebrity lineage, Mormon culture, and reality television. He has successfully built his own career as an executive with Osmond Construction and as a musician, suggesting that his identity is far more complex than just a reality TV boyfriend. The drama, however, continues to follow the nephew of Donny Osmond, ensuring his name remains in the headlines across the reality TV landscape.
