The Utah native was the second-oldest of the original Osmond Brothers singers and the fourth oldest of the nine Osmond children.

Maybe they mean the first three Osmond children were girls.
I think.

Some older brothers were not part of the singing group. If I remember correctly, they were born deaf.

There were about 5 Osmond singers and 9 children total apparently

I heard that the two oldest Osmond brothers caught a virus when they were very young and it caused them to be deaf.

The two oldest Osmond brothers are Tom and Virl who are hearing impaired and were not part of the Osmond brothers musical act who performed on stage.

There are two older brothers not in the singing group. They were deaf. So, as it says, Wayne was the second oldest in the group, but fourth in order of birth.
