Osmond is following suit of other A-listers who have spoken out about wanting their kids to pave their own paths. She previously said leaving her children a sizable inheritance would only "harm" them.
Ashton Kutcher revealed that he and his wife, Mila Kunis, have no plans of setting up a trust for their two children. The couple reportedly has a $275 million net worth.
Osmond said she would still help her children if they needed it.
"And they'll never know it because this is the only one that they'll know. I'm not setting up a trust for them," Kutcher said. "We'll end up giving our money away to charity and to various things. If my kids want to start a business, and they have a good business plan, I'll invest in it. But they're not getting trusts. So, hopefully, they'll be motivated to have what they had or some version of what they had."
