Little People, Big World viewers questioned whether Amy Roloff split from her husband Chris Marek after she was spotted solo at a wedding recently.

Douglas Sirk movies: ‘Imitation of Life,’ ‘Written on the Wind’ (photo: Lana Turner, Juanita Moore, Karin Dicker in ‘Imitation of Life’) Douglas Sirk is Turner Classic Movies’ Director of the Evening.
