“From heartbreak to full-circle romance” 💔➡️❤️ She faced betrayal, loss, and a very public breakup with a country legend — but decades later, she found love again in the most unexpected place: her college sweetheart. The reunion that has fans tearing up — full story (and vintage pics!) in the article below 👇
There is hardly anyone who doesn’t know this country music singer and actress. Born on May 1, 1945, in Lafayette, Tennessee, the future star began her journey in the arts after graduating from Florida State University. She reached the peak of her career in the 1970s and 1980s with her hit songs and appearances in «Octopussy» and «Splash». Her tracks were on Billboard magazine’s pop, country, adult contemporary, and jazz charts making her a household name.
Her marriage to famous musician K. Kristofferson deserves our special attention. Their marriage was not without controversy too being fraught with challenges and obstacles. Most problems stemmed from his drinking, being unfaithful and emotional pressures. All this took its toll on the star’s mental state which ultimately led to their divorce. Despite their unfortunate personal life, they achieved professional acclaim and success worldwide.
It was in her 2016’s memoir that she admitted still caring about the man despite their separation. In fact, they maintained a rare emotional connection which even remained decades later. During their union they experienced a heartbreaking incident – the loss of their child due to a miscarriage which filled their inner worlds with grief and sadness. The singer was too strong and independent to ask for financial support for her and her daughter.
It became known that she reunited with J. Hutto, her college sweetheart whom she met during her time at Florida state. It was back in the 1970s that they first crossed paths at a beach party. Then, the man joined the military and they had no choice but to go on to lead separate lives.
