Angela and Courtney have chronicled their falling in love and secrets to a healthy relationship in
Friends: A Love Story. Courtney summarizes his goal as a husband: "I want peace in my home, I want a smile on my wife's face. What I had to realize was that she's first, and when the queen's happy, the land is happy."
In addition to the good times they've shared, the book also covers one of the most challenging periods of their life -- trying to conceive a child.
"We went through about seven attempts at in vitro fertilization," Angela shares. "That was tough at times, but I had him by my side. I was disappointed but I never allowed my spirit to be just devastated to where I'm over in a corner somewhere weeping. Just get up, try again. He was very supportive, always letting me know it's about us, and it's about me, and we will have children, you know -- some way, someday, somehow ..."
Courtney was right, and today the happy couple has a beautiful set of twins, Bronwyn Golden and Slater Josiah. "Surrogacy was the answer for us," Angela beams. "A wonderful family helped us out. And they were magnificent, and the kids are just brilliant!"
