She has also admitted to a not-always smooth relationship with her current husband. Marie played her mother in the TV movie Side by Side: The True Story of the Osmond Family. She also starred in the TV movies "The Gift of Love" and "I Married Wyatt Earp". She garnered rave reviews as Anna in "The King and I" and Maria in "The Sound of Music" in the mid 90s, taking a break from her country music success. She returned to television with brother Donny in 1998 to cohost the Donny and Marie Show, a talk/entertainment show that lasted two seasons. She appeared as herself in the 2001 TV movie Inside the Osmonds, which showed how the brothers' egos, their father's fiscal mismanagement, and the family's quest to build a multi-media empire led to their downfall. The film was produced by Jimmy Osmond. Currently, Marie hosts her own radio show, Marie and Friends, a nationally syndicated program.
