"My father knew my husband long before I ever did. He actually always says that he loved him first," Stephanie said. "There really was this wonderful respect and admiration between the two of them before I even came into the picture. So I don't think it was too hard of a push. But when you think about what it took for my husband to put his career on the line. What if things didn't go well? ... If it didn't work out, what would that mean for him?"

She said that after they started dating, Vince changed his mind.

"It was not always just all roses. We were given permission and then it was taken away," she revealed. "In terms of the reasons why, I don't know if he was getting pressure. It was a really big thing in our business for the top star to be dating the boss' daughter and all of the implications it could have."
