HE DIVORCED HER IN 1978. SHE SPENT THE NEXT 28 YEARS SINGING BEHIND HIM ANYWAY. Bonnie Owens never asked to be the star, yet country music would not sound the same without her. After marrying Merle Haggard in 1965, she helped raise his four children, stood beside him in the studio, and co-wrote the timeless classic Today I Started Loving You Again.
