Melissa Gilbert announced that she's returning to work amid her husband Timothy Busfield's child sex abuse case. Gilbert, 61, took to Instagram on Monday, February 15, to share that she's jumping back in to her position as Chief Creative Officer for her brand Modern Prairie. "I wanted to take a moment to speak to you directly," she said in the reel. "As many of you know, I stepped away for a little while to focus on my family. It was time I needed. Time to be present and to gather my strength in a season that has not been easy.
