ELIZABETH TAYLOR, 78, ENGAGED FOR THE NINTH TIME — TO A 49-YEAR-OLD!!!!

Posted by Adam

Friday April 9, 2010

Elizabeth TaylorELIZABETH Taylor is to be a bride for the ninth time — the 78-year-old actress, who now predominantly uses a wheelchair, recently got engaged to boyfriend Jason Winters, 49, of Sterling Winters Management, according to Us Weekly magazine.

Winter recently became pop superstar Janet Jackson‘s new manager.

“It’s no secret that they’ve been together forever and are in love, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if they were engaged,” a source said.

“Right now they are keeping it between them.”

Taylor has previously called Winter “one of the most wonderful men I’ve ever known, that’s why I love him.”

The Hollywood veteran has been married eight times — twice to love Richard Burton. Her last union, to construction worker Larry Fortensky, ended after five years in 1996.

    Wheel on down that asile Liz,laying or sitting- enjoy your last days.

  • Eugene Khoo

    What Liz has to ask herself is – would all those men have married her if she were NOT Elizabeth Taylor. It is very disheartening to find out that someone marries you not for the person you are, but for the CELEBRITY you are. Anyway, I wish her all the best. She’s a great actress and a wonderful personality. Ah, yes, and one of the most BEAUTIFUL women to grace the screen when she was younger.

    A Dame and a Legend – for heaven’s sake – have some integrity- I do not see a need for her to marry – after so many marriages – her friend can be her best companion – forget marriage Liz.

  • Tish

    Good grief, he’s only after her money. A male gold digger. I hate to say it, but she must be senile.

  • linda

    PLEASE, IF THE MAN YOUR GONNA MARRY HAS AN OUNCE OF INTEGRITY HE WOULD BE YOUR COMMITTED COMPANION NOT YOUR HUSBAND. HE IS ONLY AFTER YOUR MONEY THINKING YOUR ON YOUR DEATH BED.I HOPE YOU THINK ABOUT THIS KNOWING HE HAS.IALSO HOPE YOU LIVE TO BE IN YOUR HUNDREDS…YOU ARE A GREAT LEGEND AND NO NEED TO MARRY YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL WITHOUT PAPER SAYING I GIVE YOU ALL MY MONEY AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THATS ON HIS AGENDA.

  • Danielle

    Sorry Liz and with all due respect. I grew up listening to my Mom go on about you. She was and still is a big movie buff and has been a big fan of yours over the years. My Mom is the same age as you and still works, out lived two husbands, still lives alone and takes care of her self, still drives and her mind is still what it was 50 years ago. she has a boyfriend who wants to marry her and you know what she said, “I like being single and not having to answer to anyone’.

    this is good and it is bad. why are so many older women getting married before younger women. the younger women cant even find a man much less a husband. would she have talked to this man or let him touch her back in her heyday when she was ‘smoking hot” ? no, i don’t think so. what can she do for him but give him some money. what can he do for her with her being in a wheelchair. i see now that her being with Michael jackson was a hoax the whole time since this sterling man has being her companion for years. well, ms taylor, best wishes.

  • Katherine

    Bless her ole slutty heart….she just don’t get it that these guys are trying to take her for all she’s worth….what healthy, studly 49yr. old man wants an old 78yr. old woman in a wheelchair? I think it’s rather sickening…as if he’d be faithful.

  • yosra

    Elizabeth,,,i love you and wish you the BEST,,,so i REALLY hope that you will do the right thing,,,i don’t know if this guy after your money or not,,but i see that Friendship can be better in that stage of life,,,But anyway,,hope you the best and happiness..
    God bless you

  • Baron Von Hugecock

    good for you liz. hope you outlive the sob!!!

  • Sarah Godwin

    This is truly heartbreaking! She is my favorite movie star, but this is just too much, and I fear for her welfare! What can she be thinking?! Is this just a sympathy for Michael Jackson? I will pray for her, and I do hope that if there is any chance for happiness, that it will be hers. She richly deserves it for all the entertainment and pleasure she has provided over the years!

    It is a shame that is she from a generation that thinks that one should be married! I hope that she does not live to regret it one day as she has alot of wealth to be considered. She would be safer having this man for a companion! PLEASE give this CAREFUL THOUGHT, MS. TAYLOR!

  • Elinor

    Elizabeth,
    Listen to me. Don’t do it.
    If there has to be romance, get engaged.
    That would be fun, wouldn’t it. But don’t do a ninth marriage, this time to a care-taker. That’s not good enough for you.
    There has to be a limit to giving, Elizabeth. You know well and good what marriage costs. Even pre-nups don’t erase the emotional costs.
    Like him. Love him. But do not marry him. Now or in the future. Don’t do it
    Your friend,
    Elinor

    Dear Ms. Liz Taylor,

    You have been a talented actress like no other actress has been. You have been (and still are) a beautiful woman like no other woman on earth. You have always been in control of your life and lead it to your heart’s content. You deserve the best, not the way other people see it, but as you yourself do. So, if it makes you happy, then that is the answer to the question. Go for it! You need no one’s approval, and those who think they have the right to judge you, well, they are all wrong. It is your life, and you are the only one to decide and make the best of it. God bless you! I wish you a long happy life, as you so much deserve! If that means for you to get married again, then my best wishes go to your future husband as well.
    All my love,
    Diana Lucia Zotescu

    This is a first class lady (in case you hadn’t noticed, Kathyrn), as well as a first class actress. Hollywood doesn’t turn out truly glamorous actresses, like Elizabeth Taylor anymore. Those days are gone. Kathyrn, your remark was way out of line, shame on you. Ms. Taylor~I wish you the best. (And I’m sure she’s smart enough to have a prenuptial, and if she decided not to, so what~).

    You got to be kidding? Is it for love or MONEY?

  • http://www.artistcolony.net/jamiedakis Jamie Dakis

    Dear Elizabeth,
    I have watched you all my life on the movie screen. I admire your tenacity and wish you the best of everything. I think it is way cool that at 78 you are in love and wish to marry. Don’t listen to all the negative comments.
    Mae West was married to a younger man when she was older and I think it is up to you and your love to do whatever it is you both choose. More power to you.
    Shalom
    Jamie

    Elizabeth,

    Is this how your want your children and grandchildren to remember you? Have some respect for yourself and your family. He is only after your money!! What do you have to prove by marrying again? You don’t even know what marriage is. If you have one ounce of dignity left in you, don’t do this. It will make you look like a fool.

  • http://yahoo Kathy Aceves

    I hope Elizabeth does whatever makes HER happy. At 78 years old, I don’t think she cares about the money thing. If this guy respects her and treats her right….who cares why he is marrying her. Seems to me, he makes her happy or she would not consider marrying him. I adore her and I hope the rest of her life is very very happy. God Bless her! You GO GIRL!!!

  • Marti

    Congrats and want to say you were one ofthe most beautiful child and adult actress. I loved all of your movies. I see ou still adorn yourself with beautiful jewelry and hair and make up is beautiful.

  • christine moore

    Haven’t you learned men are slim yet? It only took me three tiumes and 45 yrs!

  • tata

    Elizabeth darling he is not Michael Jackson, he cannot substitute Mike in any level, cause there is only one Michael Jackson. I hope you are not jumping into marriage to compensate the loss of MJ. This man is younger then King of Pop. Wow… I always thought that the age difference between MJ & ET was an obstacle to grow romantic relationship. Probably MJ didn’t want to mix friendship with romance. (God I ♥ him even more). Elizabeth you are young at heart, but please he will not go any where if he loves you he will be besides you 4ever. You will not break his heart if you say no. I guess she is afraid of loosing him, so maybe that’s why she said YES. But why not when MJ was alive but now? Fear of loneliness made her make this decision?

  • annie

    Elizabeth don’t worry what anyone says. It is your life you live it as you want I know I should have I listened once and made a big mistake so you listen to youself just what you want to do and do it. Live your life how your heart tells you to, spend your money how you want to you are the one that earned it so don’t let anyone tell you how to spend it. I learned late in life but finally got smart. I am 71 years old so I am not far behind you. Get Married and Enjoy what years you have left and lets hope its many many more hope you live to be over 100 Best of Luck on your new Marriage I will say a Prayer for you both.

  • Kate

    Liz is getting older, and she stayed away from marriage for a long time. Like many older people, she may be getting married for companionship. Who knows? We don’t know if this man is in it for the money or if he’s helping her out. Even elderly people who are not celebrities marry so as not to be alone in their final days.

    What a woman and man …

  • charles

    Dear Ms.Taylor: I’ve enjoyed all of your movies and you over the years. I am 69 and I am really appalled at the negative people out there who have no idea about life. I hope you enjoy the rest of your years any way you choose cause you will always be my star. Charles

  • GRANNYJ17

    She must be senile and out of her mind with pain pills. Why in hell would she want to get married to a 49 year old, black dude? I’m sure she can do better than a gigolo that is after all the money. Remeber Liz….you already wore out one pair of hips with all those men and you are too old to have them replaced again!

  • GOd

    Black gold digger male….and the old lady should give her money to charity..instead of going the money to the black dickhead who will replace her with a younger girl after she died….no brain .

  • http://yahoo crazy lake

    Who really cares about this? what other issues we have to deal with in our lives, I wish you happiness Elizabeth if you still know what it is.

  • dolly

    to marry or not is your choice Liz but why make a fool of yourself? haven’t you learn anything from your previous 8 marriages? These guys are using you to gain publicity and to have a go at your wealth.See how long they will be with you if there is no money or fame involved. If you are lonely, then keep his as a companion but dont buy him with marriage.

  • http://yahoo Nancy

    Dear Liz, I have been your fan for ever, now I am 56. I also loved Richard Burton, I guess no one can replace him either, not to state his love for you. Live with this man, but don;t make him an equal to Richard, he is not worth that. He has a long way to go (if he ever can) to take Richard;s place. Don’t do that. We love you and even now respect you. We don;t want to see you heartbroken again. God Bless you and Richard too. Remember him always!!

    Everyone is correct in his/her opinion. I completely agree with joy. Madame LIz Taylor has been doing great in her advocacy for AIDS. May there be many more of your kind. Let those without sin criticize? But is there…
