Marie Osmond ‘Scraps Plans to Marry First Hubby Stephen Craig’

Marie OsmondMARIE Osmond has scrapped plans to remarry her first husband Stephen Craig.

The performer apparently pulled the plugs on her marriage plans after the two got into a nasty fight over her fears of Stephen cheating.

“Stephen and Marie were in a really good place with their relationship until the holidays rolled around,” a source close to the couple told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“They were going out on romantic dates, spending time at home in Las Vegas with the kids and genuinely cherishing their time together.

“Making plans to marry this summer took precedence over almost everything else in their lives.”

The couple first wed in June 1982, after an 18-month courtship. They had a son the following year but divorced three years later, with Marie accusing Stephen in divorce papers of cheating throughout the marriage.

“Marie tried to put the past behind her, but after reuniting with Stephen, suspicions about his cheating stayed in the back of her mind,” said the source.

“When Stephen traveled to New York over the holidays to visit her while she was performing with her brother Donny, she told him flat out, ‘I just don’t feel I can trust you.’

“Stephen insisted he’s a much different man than he was 25 years ago, but Marie wouldn’t hear it. It ended with Marie calling off the wedding.

“Stephen is devastated over Marie’s decision to call off the wedding.

“He’s done everything he can think of to change her mind, but she won’t budge.

“While she was in New York, Marie stayed at the Marriott Marquis – the same hotel where she and Michael had once stayed.

“Being there without him brought back an avalanche of emotions that Marie wasn’t prepared to deal with. Her heart constantly aches for Michael, especially with the one-year anniversary of his suicide approaching.

“Marie’s children fear she’s heading for an emotional breakdown now that Stephen is out of her life. Everyone hopes she’ll come around before it’s too late and she loses Stephen forever.”

    Marie, you don’t need to get into a relationship, much less marriage, with anyone right now. You’re still grieving Michael’s death and hurting from your divorce from Brian.

    Give yourself more time to heal, spend more time with your children — they need you and you need them more than you need another man right now. Taking a break from work would probably do you a lot of good, too. Getting to rest and just kick back with family can work wonders.

    Marie,

    I am sure you have heard every piece of advice from every form of the word. From Oprah to E News, to the neighbors and your family, everyone has an opinion. Let me ask you something…Arent you happy that you have been able to rekindle this love with your first husband, to a level where you both seemed to be happy. What will you do when the bottom falls though this dream you have with this idea to remarry him. Please do not do it.
    You cannot live in the past, Once a bridge has been crossed, walking back to this bridge, it may appear to be the same water under the bridge, it is water yes….but it is totally different now. Trust your instinct, you know inside your heart how this will happen.
    Sadly this man, has been abloe to take advantage of your frailty and your weak resistance right now. This is a time for you to be the strongest, Dig deep, hold yourself close to your high values,
    You can still be close with him, you can still see him, and have a relationship, but keep your independence. Never give up your own control over your life again. You have come too far, achieved levels of surviving the unthinkable stressors.
    Take care of Marie first, Your family and place your love where you will never feel you have to question it again. Pay no attention to those who cannot share in your grief and support your needs. You are worth more than this. Ask yourself this….Would your son be happy for you if you went back and remarried again., I think your son would tell you No Mom….do not do this for the reasons you think you want this…Both people must trust each other unconditonally.
    Be wise…Be smart…and always remember…you are who you are becuase of how you love….
    Be gentle and Kind as you tend to your own needs….in doing this…you are planting your own seeds.

    Well, what does scripture say abt it? thats the question to ask your self, and have you been able to forgive? if stuff comes up from the past, then you havent learned to forgive and let go. Holding bitterness is not of love. I dont think its proper for your fans to bash on Steven, they dont know his life. We all make our choices we have but to be sure though (as Christians)they are right with God.
    If you feel you need some man in your life, then turn to the one who gave you life. GOD! If he feels you should be with someone then it’ll be. But of course sometimes he gives to us our desire for something just so we learn from it, not because it was what he knew we really needed. Just like the nations of this earth, man wanted man to lead us, so God gave man a leader to rule us so that we would see that man is never going to do better then God himself and should have done it his way in the first place!
    Pray for Steven, and for your fans so they learn to not judge Steven or anyone else for that matter! Pray they learn to pray and learn unconditional love.
    I pray you peace and healing and truth.

    Well It’s your decision between you and Stephen Craig and don’t rush to remarry. Give yourself enough time and make right decision. But no one’s eles. NO ONE CAN’T JUDGE YOU. Just pray about that you and Stephen before you decide. okay take your time. That is all.

    Marie,
    Bless you. You have been through so much and with so many people watching. You need to love the ones you trust – and that is your family who have always been there through thick and thin. Give yourself time to heal and allow your family to just love you. Don’t hurry – be still. x

    Mormonism is a cult religion. As a matter of fact, it is one of the few religions which would make Scientology look respectable.

    The entire religion is shot through with voodoo ways and beliefs. I’ll bet if the truth were known, Ms, Osmond has some really strange sexual fantasies. I’ve had a lot of experience with these “goody-two shoes” Mormon women and can tell any guy who is thinking about hooking up with one, that he’d best run, . . . while the running is clear.
