Osmond went on to marry record producer Brian Blosil in 1986, and the couple welcomed seven children together (two biological, five adopted) before they broke up in 2007.

Unlike Osmond, Craig had not not remarried, which allowed the former lovers to begin dating again (in secret) in 2009, after years of co-parenting their child. "Stephen was getting married and we [realized] we can’t go to our son’s wedding and not be married,” Osmond told Peopleof their decision to walk down the aisle again in 2011. “So we got married a few months before he did. He joked that he never thought it would happen, but it did!"

As Vanity Fair describes it, "Taylor’s addiction to pills, Burton’s late-stage alcoholism and his affair with the actor Nathalie Delon, and the couple’s frenetic lifestyle eventually tore the legendary lovers apart."

A year later, the couple reconciled, and they married for the second time in Botswana in October of 1975. Their rekindled passion was not enough to make their second marriage work, and they divorced again for the final time on Aug. 1, 1976. According to excerpts from Burton's diaries published by The Daily Mail, Burton's alcoholism and Taylor's failure to kick her pill addiction ended up being the demise of this tumultuous love story once again.
