Lorrie Morgan wanted to marry Troy
(From Associated Press - 5/21/96)
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Country singer Lorrie Morgan says she
and Sen. Fred Thompson once talked about marriage, but before
that she wanted to marry Dallas quarterback Troy Aikman "probably
more than I've ever wanted anything in my life."
Morgan made the declaration during an interview with Phyllis George.
The interview will be broadcast during the May 28 "Spotlight
With Phyllis George" on TNN: The Nashville Network.
Morgan, 36, blamed tabloid newspapers for the demise of her relationship
with Aikman about two years ago.
"You hear something in Dallas or you hear something in Nashville
and you're not there to look at each other eye to eye. You call
each other on the phone and you hear it, and right away you accuse
the other one. And it tore our relationship up. It totally destroyed
us," she said.
Morgan said her more recent relationship with Thompson, one of
Tennessee's two Republican U.S. senators, "has been a wonderful
thing in my life."
"And we had at one time talked about marriage. But I don't
think that's going to happen for Fred and I," she said.
Morgan is known for hits including "Watch Me," "What
Part of No" and "I Didn't Know My Own Strength."
