Given that Summer was Yang's stepmother, I'd say that Summer actually made the commitment to stay with Tai in that way. The fact that they were together long enough for Yang and Ruby to remember her that long would indicate a very close marriage between the two. My guess is that they married not long after Yang's birth, with Summer just helping to step up and care for her former teammate's daughter while getting closer to Tai in the process. It would make sense that having a common investment in Yang's care while she was an infant would bring Summer and Tai together. I can see them finally opening up regarding unspoken feelings from their Team STRQ days and then getting hitched not long after.
