At the time, Osmond was enjoying the success of her hit show with her brother, "Donny and Marie." They got married shortly and had their son, Stephen, a year later. The marriage lasted for three years, and by '85, things went awry.

GOD GIVES SECOND CHANCES

The couple got divorced, and the singer remarried Brian Blossil, with whom she had six children. Osmond's second marriage ended in 2007, and she told the news outlet she believed then, she would never get married again.

By 2009, the TV personality reconnected with Craig through their son and rekindled their romance.

People were so cruel because [I] chose to show my children that they had to go on living

LOVE TRIUMPHS

The TV host is happy with the former pro-basketballer turned motivational speaker, and interestingly, he was with Osmond when she lost her son, Michael, to suicide in 2010.

The singer opened up about that time of her life on her first appearance on "The Talk" in September. She recalled getting shamed for returning to work after the then-18-year-old teenager died.

"When my son died, I chose to go back to work a week after his funeral, and people were so cruel because [I] chose to show my children that they had to go on living."

Craig was there to help Osmond through that difficult phase. They support each other in everything, and their love keeps triumphing always.
