...Marie Osmond

Marie Osmond has gotten married to a familiar face, her 1st husband Stephen Craig. She was married to him 30 years ago and they have a 28 year old son together. I guess after her divorce from her 2nd husband, the weight lose and the death of her son she found comfort in him and he in her. I do not find this totally shocking looking at some other celebrities who have done this before. Elizabeth Taylor divorced Richard Burton in 1974 after ten years of marriage, only to remarry him a year later. This time, the marriage barely lasted only six months. The issues that had forced them apart—boozing, mostly, both his and hers—were still there. Taylor was angling for yet another reconciliation with Burton when he ran off with his make-up artist, Sally, and married her instead. They also seemed on the verge of yet another reconciliation right before he died in 1984 from a brain hemorrhage. Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson first married when Melanie was 18—they had been dating since she was 14 and he was 22. They divorced six months later and remarried in 1989 when Melanie was 32. Her increased age did not help, and they again divorced, though this marriage lasted seven years and produced a daughter, Dakota. Rapper Eminem married his high school sweetheart, Kim, in 1999, divorced her in 2001, wrote a bunch of mean songs about her, married her again in 2006, divorced her by the end of the year, and wrote some more mean songs about her. At least he got some hits out of it. Larry King’s 3rd and 5th wives, whom he married in 1961 and 1969 respectively, were the same woman, a Playboy bunny named Alene. They divorced for good in 1972. Natalie Wood and Robert Wagner were married twice, once when Wood was 19 and again when she was 34. One night in 1981, they went out on a boat, had a party, and Wood ended up drowning in the ocean. They were, however, still married. I am going to give her a Digit Up thought because 30 years is a long time to be apart from someone. With age and maturity hopefully they will be able t get over whatever it was that drove them apart before.
