Elizabeth Taylor's Tumultuous Love Life

0:00On March 23rd, Elizabeth Taylor, the two-time Oscar winner, lived a life full of dramatic romances, marrying eight times to seven men over the years. She tied the knot with Richard Burton twice, hotel air Nikki Hilton, actor Michael Wilding, producer Mike Todd, singer Eddie Fisher, politician John, Warner, and construction worker Larry Fortensky. Taylor had four children, two sons from her marriage to Wilding, and daughters from Todd and an adoption. She passed away from congestive heart failure at age 79 on March 23rd, 2011. Her first marriage came at just 18 to Hilton, but it lasted only a year amid claims of abuse and miscarriage. She followed that with Wilding, 20 years her senior, staying together five years in welcoming sons, Michael and Christopher. Tragedy struck with her third husband, Todd, who died in a plane crash in March 1958, leaving her a widow at 26 with infant, daughter Lisa. After Todd's death, Taylor found comfort with

Her final marriage to Fritsky in 1991, after meeting in rehab, lasted five years before media glare took its toll. Taylor once reflected on always needing a man in her life, but grew to cherish her independence by the late 1980s. Her bold loves and harbours continue to inspire new generations of stars, keeping her spirit alive, and Hollywood lore. You've been listening to entertainment and celebrity
