Actress Jill Wagner has made a name for herself in family-friendly romantic comedies, but her real-life romance to her husband David has many of the elements of those heartwarming stories.

They dated early in life. They went their separate ways. And then they got back together. Toss in a small town and a farm – both are part of their real-life plot – and it has all the elements of a Christmas rom-com. 

“We were living in our own movie,” Wagner told Crosswalk Headlines, laughing.

Jill and David recount that and other stories in a Dec. 23 Great American Family special, Christmas at the Farm with Jill Wagner and Family, where they celebrate Christmas with friends and family on their East Tennessee farm.
