Carrie Underwood recently opened up about the beauty that came with family struggle amidst a global pandemic.
In a recent interview with CBS Sunday Morning, the American singer-songwriter shared the silver lining that came with being in quarantine with her husband, ex-pro hockey player Mike Fisher, and their two sons, Isaiah and Jacob.
