Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors
Turns out, Hollywood's favorite spooky kid and Disney's ultimate bestie are family IRL — and now there's a photo to prove it.
On Sunday, January 5, Haley Joel Osment shared a rare snap with his younger sister Emily Osment on Instagram.
Taken at the Paramount Golden Globe Nominee Celebration in Beverly Hills, California, the picture shows the 36-year-old Sixth Sense star looking sharp in a suit and tie while Emily, 32, stuns in a silver dress, her shoulder-length hair styled in soft waves.
After the post hit social media, it didn't take long for reactions to flood the comments section.
"Oh my gosh I love this 🙌❤️," one fan wrote.
"Brother and sister classic🔥👏," another added.
"😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️ Cutties," someone else gushed.
But it wasn't just "oohs" and "ahhs" filling the feed — many fans were surprised to learn the two are siblings.
"Why do I feel like this is the only picture I've seen with y'all together lol," one person wrote.
"I keep forgetting y'all are siblings. You two are simply amazing 💜🦇," another shared.
"Oh my god - just realized that you are siblings and now I feel stupid 🙈😂," a third chimed in.
This rare photo is a treat for fans since the Osments don't often share pictures together. The last time Haley Joel posted about the Hannah Montana icon was during the 2021 holiday season. "Yuletide," he captioned a festive photo of the brother-sister duo.
Meanwhile, Emily mentioned her big brother last November during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, revealing that he was a groomsman at her wedding. "I loved being able to sort of have him support me in that way, to support both of us in that way," she told host Drew Barrymore. "He just nailed it." (The Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage actress married Jack Anthony in October 2024.)
Both siblings kicked off their careers as child stars and have managed to stay in the spotlight. Haley Joel made a name for himself with roles in Forrest Gump and Pay It Forward and recently appeared in Blink Twice. Emily carved her own path with roles in Spy Kids 2 and Young Sheldon.
