Marie Osmond to re-Marry

[UrbanFool]

So, does getting married have anything to do with the sealing at all? I figure my husband and I will be getting sealed within the next few months here.

Marie is marrying her first husband again.

Seems like the middle marrige was a long term fling. But that's just me.

Seems like if there was a chance the first one could have been saved, and all, I mean if you're going to re-marry the first guy. Just seems odd. I can see doing that if there was no marrge in between, but I wouldn't re-marry my first husband after divorcing my second husband......

Hear I am babbling, and what I am trying to say makes no sense...sorry. I'll shut up now.

She was really young when she got married the first time. I didn't get married until I was 32, and I'm pretty sure that marriage to ANYONE before that would have been disastrous.

True, but just seems like too much.

She married him yesterday.

Well that just shows how up-to-date I am!

The thing I'm curious about is that she received a sealing cancellation with her 1st husband, to marry husband #2. It appears they married in the Temple, so I'm assuming she got a sealing cancellation from her 2nd husband, so she can marry husband #1. It almost sounds dizzying.

I thought at first it was strange that she chose a wedding dress for this recent wedding, but it appears that it was her original wedding dress to husband #1.

I'm guessing they kept in touch over the years due to their son and with the death of her other son, maybe husband #1 became a rock for her.

Maybe she can just cancel the cancellation?

I'm happy for her.

Aww! Hope it works out this time around for her.

I think sometimes people need to remember WHY they commit to a marriage and WHY the divorce before jumping into the frying pan again.

[classylady]

I wish her all the best! But, I can tell you, as a 2nd spouse, it brings up some serious misgivings.

[UrbanFool]

I don't see what the problem is. I'm assuming they've matured and find themselves in the same place at the moment. A lot of change can take place in all those years.

If it didn't work out to begin with, what is going to change now? More mature, maybe. BUT, that doesn't change your overall personality traits.

This is where the change is:

They finally figured out the grass is not greener on the other side.

A lot of divorces happen because one or both of the spouses think they "deserve better" only to find out later on that the person that they thought is better have their own set of problems...

As they mature, they learn that you don't escape a problem in a marriage by jumping ship; rather, you learn how to solve the problem.

Therefore instead of thinking, "why did she divorce him?" you can shift the focus to, "why did she marry him the first time around?". She probably realized that reason is still there and still as valid as it was then.
