However, this close-knit but controversial reality TV couple almost never got their romance off the ground.

According to Savannah, Julie refused to marry Todd twice.

This is my baby.

I’m gonna raise my baby.

However, Savannah says Todd didn’t take Julie’s initial response as a final answer.

“He asked her twice, and she told him no.

And now, look at ‘em, 27 years later,” she recalled.

However, looks like even being miles apart didn’t put a damper on this famous marriage.

However, Surgent once again stepped in to dispel any concerns about the couple’s union.

“Julie is devoted to him.

She loves him,” he explained toRadar.

Unfortunately, Todd’s decade-long sentence means the couple will have to wait many more years to be reunited.
