Quick Comeback
Although Marie Osmond had achieved remarkable success in the 1970s, the new decade was a different story. After her cooperation with Donny ended, Marie was forced to watch her singles receive decreasing attention. As each record struggled to make an effect outside of the country charts, where they were steadily dropping, it appeared that Marie Osmond’s musical career had come to an end. That’s when she dropped her fifth solo studio album, There’s No Stopping Your Heart. Both the 1985 album and three of its singles became enormous country hits, rekindling Osmond’s career just as it appeared all was gone.

Out With the Old
Marie Osmond’s first marriage did not turn out to be the lifelong relationship she had dreamed for. She and Stephen Craig divorced in October 1985, just over three years after they married. Almost precisely a year later, on October 28, 1986, Osmond walked down the aisle of Utah’s Jordan River Temple with a new man. Osmond and Brian Blosil had two biological children: a daughter named Rachael and a son named Matthew. They also expanded their family via adopting. The Mormon couple formally adopted five children: Jessica, Michael, Brandon, Brianna, and Abigail, making Marie Osmond the mother of eight. This marriage lasted more than 20 years and ended in divorce in 2007.
