I think the reason that Debbie could forgive Liz, other than because she was a real sweetheart, was that she recognized that Eddie took advantage of Liz's grief over the death of her husband. He probably had the hots for her the whole time and just took advantage when the situation presented itself. I also think that Debbie realized that Fisher was a cad and that she was fortunate to be rid of him.
I think later on Debbie realized that it was probably for the best because their marriage at the time was already vulnerable obviously and Eddie Fisher and her wouldn't have lasted anyway if the whole scandal didn't happen. Plus it would have hurt the children more, then again, she wouldn't have married that gross shoe salesman guy in the 60s..... hmm In an alternate universe Debbie should have married her first boyfriend, Robert Wagner. Being athletic, there would have been no way she could have drowned.
Oh but she did its History, good luck to her, it prolonged her career and Liz kept her in the news, Good Luck to her, , you are entitled to your opinion. You can't make someone stay with you if they don't love you, Eddie had a lovely voice, and was according to a lot of people a really great guy, Ann-Margret, Connie Stevens ,Bobby Darin, Andy Williams, Frank Sinatra, MM, I could be here all day, Good Luck to Debbie she became a sort of star, she had a very limited talent, read what Gene Kelly said about her. Like most marriages its 6 of one and half a dozen of the other, and normally no ones business, unless you milk it. I liked Debbie, she was always good on a talk show.
Debbie was real lady, elegant, with class, she had charming smile, beautifull facial features, noble bahaviour. She was real gem. I will miss her beauty, it is so rare nowadays.
@@evesapple Elizabeth was probably the most vulnerable one could be after losing the love of her life. We really can't blame Elizabeth Taylor. Eddie was her husband's best friend and she was grasping at any connection to try and console herself
@@animalsarebeautifulpeople3094 No, we really can blame Elizabeth. What she did was terrible. You don't get a pass to treat people like shit just you're going through something.
I absolutely love Debbie. Such a class act. Very glamorous yet very down to earth and very sweet. She never behaved like a spoiled and pompous movie star. I also love Carrie. Carrie was truly a multi-talented performer.
Elizabeth was Devastated and inconsolable after her Husband died in that Plane Crash leaving her and their little daughter. _Eddie took advantage of that._ Once Liz came to her senses she dumped him and remarried. That's when Debbie & Liz patched things up _(though they finally spoke about it 30yrs later)._ They remained friends for years.

kelli henderson That's cuz Elizabeth drank like a fish, smoked like a chimney and was addicted to every kind of prescription she could get her fins on via a Hollyweird Dr. Feel-good. In other words, Old Liz was a typical Pisces. 😊
That is because Debbie was not drinking her life away, trying to suppress all of those negative demons like Elizabeth. Elizabeth broke up a lot of homes.
You can't break up a happy home. Debbie Reynolds held no animosity toward Elizabeth Taylor, so all the negativity here is petty and mean-spirited, and reflects far more on the posters than it does on Ms. Taylor.
Yes, my spouse was unfaithful, Christmas night I thought throwing him out was the worst thing that could happen to me and my son. Turns out it was the BEST Christmas gift I ever received.
It was so obvious from the photographs I've seen, even before Mike's death, that Eddie was desperately in love with Elizabeth. Debbie was no fool, she must have suspected something and probably she no longer cared about Eddie. I admire Debbie for not holding a grudge, it takes class to behave that way. RIP now Debbie.
I agree, it does seem that Eddie was already in love, or at least infatuated, with Elizabeth before Mike passed. Debbie was a trooper to go through what she endured, from both of her husbands, and a saint for being forgiving later.
Debbie was always gracious when she talked about liz & Eddie and made it appear as if she was not holding a grudge......not sure i believe that but...debbie was no fool she was not going to play into the bullshit media
I think in that instance, its just to have a grudge. What is admirable is that, as Debbie admitted, she later forgave Liz for what Liz did. Sure Eddie is responsible for starting it, but Liz could have refused Eddie. In either case, in the end, clearly Liz divorced Eddie and it is possible also that Liz was remorseful and Debbie saw that - so it made forgiving her easier. Either way, Debbie stands out as the heroine.
Debbie was such a kind hearted person with a forgiving soul,she became friends with Elizabeth and forgave her,she was a wonderfl person,i admire her so much
They were already friends. Debbie was around and knew what condition Liz was in when her Husband died. *Elizabeth was Devastated and inconsolable after her Husband died* in that Plane Crash *leaving her and their little daughter. **_Eddie took advantage of that._* Once Liz came to her senses she dumped him and remarried. That's when Debbie & Liz patched things up _(though they finally spoke about it 30yrs later)._ They remained friends for years.
Eddie wasn t really a great prize. Speed addict, adulterer, horrible father.... And Elizabeth dumped him quickly for Burton. For her he was a way to keep Todd alive in her mind.
Eddie was trash for leaving Debbie with two small children for her friend. Some women you can't leave alone with your man and Liz Taylor was one of them. Karma got Eddie when Liz left him for Richard Burton.
Really? according to Gene Kelly she was a useless dancer, and her voice was dubbed in Singing in the Rain, as it was not good enough.They bought in Cyd Charisse to do the real dancing.
He treated both like shit . Debbie and Elizabeth recognized he was the problem . Not only did he walk out on a wife and 2 small children to fulfill his lust for Taylor , ( taking advantage of her grief ) he was also abusive to Elizabeth . At the time he was abusing substances . He even pointed a gun at Taylor's head when he confronted her about Burton
Debbie is a beautiful example of how you shouldn't ever let any man ruin your life-long friendship. If I were in her shoes, I'd probably be mad at both Lizzy and Eddie, but what she has done was a generous and kind hearted, but also intelligent act. Imagine if she dumped Liz and stayed with Eddie as if nothing happened - yuck! It's rather rare to see the cheated side behaving like that - many people will even forgive their disloyal partners and instead direct all of their anger at the "other woman/man", as if it wasn't their partners fault in the first place! And, shall something like this ever happen to me (God forbid!), I hope I'll be smart enough to dump my SO and never look back, instead of trash-talking the other woman as if she's the culprit! Yes, I agree that it's not nice to steal other people's partners, but cheating on YOUR partner is much worse and much more cowardly. As someone nicely put it, "you cannot break a happy home unless someone hands you the keys".
I did not know this! She was in alot of trouble adter her other hysband basically ruin her finances. What other info do u have. She even gave her some jewelry to her b4 she died
Eddie Fisher was a small time singer and minor movie actor. He married Debbie first, and dumped her about 4.5 years later for Liz. When LIz dumped him for Richard Burton, then he married that cute girl lead in Phillips 66 and had 2 fine daughters with her. His main claim to fame was he married 3 great women. Liz made most of her money in perfume, the girl from Highway 66 from cosmetics and Debbie had less, due to her bad taste in men. She made by far the most movies, did the most performances and stayed at it the longest of any movie queen I can recall right now. She had roles that made people feel good and happy. Liz and Debbie who were friend in Hollywood for maybe 5 years from age 17, started speaking again about 45 years later. Liz left Debbie a fine set of her Jewelry. Liz had about 400 million dollars and Debbie about 60m. Carrie had 6 million. Not so much by Hollywood standards.
Eddie was one of the Greatest singers ever, and his concerts were always sold out.He married a girl scout and fell in love with the most beautiful woman in the world, who happended to also be a two time academy award winner.
I AM A BIG FAN OF ELIZABETH TAYLOR,I AM OBSESSED ABOUT HER BUT IN THIS CHAPTER OF HER LIFE I THINK SHE DIDN'T SHOW RESPECT TO HER FRIENDSHIP WITH DEBBIE AND HER MARRIAGE
I think it was the press who made a thing about there so called friendship, I think being in Hollywood they knew one another, Liz said she was a girl scout, and she took the piss out of Debbie's home made frocks,
When Mike Todd died, Elizabeth Taylor almost went crazy with grief. Eddie Fisher was also devastated by the loss of Mike because they were very good pals and Eddie looked up to MIke, he almost kind of hero worshipped him. Mike's death left a huge hole in the lives of both Elizabeth AND Eddie. Elizabeth later said that this shared grief between her and Eddie Fisher played a big part in both of them getting together, and I think that this is understandable. Each of them knew what the other one was going through. Grief can be a very lonely thing, and when you have someone close by who knows EXACTLY how destroyed you are feeling....well, I guess feelings start to develop. I feel that Eddie got a bad press from all of this, but the truth is that he adored Elizabeth and she was the love of his life. Very few men could have resisted Elizabeth Taylor in her prime.....she was beautiful beyond words. Of course it was terrible for Debbie too......she was betrayed by her husband AND her close friend. Eddie Fisher said in his book that he remembers the day when he knew for sure that Elizabeth was strong again. It was on the set of 'Cleopatra' where she was to meet the SECOND great love of her life (after Mike Todd)....Richard Burton. Eddie said that she walked on to the set dressed in a gold costume and everyone stared in awe at the incredible vision that was Elizabeth Taylor........Eddie says that this was the moment when he knew that Elizabeth no longer needed him. Elizabeth always knew that she had wronged Debbie and they were later able to put it all behind them and become friends again......and it certainly helped Debbie's career because she lived off of the Eddie-Debbie-Liz-Biz for the next several decades.
I feel bad for Todd Fisher he was so little when Eddie left. When his sister died his mom was heart broken and died at his house I could understand if he feels soo alone. Eddie was not Brad Pitt , cause Brad does try to see the children Eddie never did. Although I am surprise that Connie Stevens never tried to contact Debbie after Eddie left her so the kids could meet.
God bless Debbie. When your girlfriend cheats with your husband it's kind of hard to swallow. Debbie Reynolds aged beautifully better than many gorgeous actresses. I heard Fisher was jealous of Debbie expecially when she had the hit song Tammy.
one thing i liked about Liz was she made no apologies for who she was and her actions...ppl wntd to stand in judgment of her for stealing debbie's then husband....the press attempted paint her as a home wrecker for her affair with eddie and tried to further put the nails in her coffin by reporting liz & debbie as best friends...liz told barbara walters...she wld describe her relation ship with debbie as a friend but leap yrs away from best friends...eddie fisher was a little weasel that lusted after liz frm the moment he laid eyes on her...when Michael todd died he saw an opening and made it appear as if he was going to console liz in her time of grief...meanwhile he was lusting...but debbie had the last laugh...cause a few short yrs later she dumped eddie for burton...
I totally agree with her. Eddie wanted Elizabeth before Mike Todd died. Maybe he felt guilty about it on some level. Anyway, he wanted to divorce Debbie before Mike did but didn't get a divorce because Debbie got pregnant with his son
Yes I love that about Elizabeth Taylor. She never cared about what anyone thought or said and she put herself first without ANY apologies!! That takes a very strong personality. She was a lover of men for sure. She cared about her own needs over the opinions of anyone else. She needed Eddie at that time to get over Mike Todd. She got more out of men then she did from a female friendship and she was true to her own needs. I admire her a lot. Debbie got the love and support of the media and people and Elizabeth didnt care for that. She didnt care what people said about her. Both were very beautiful in different ways.
Somehow I always felt bad for Eddie, the way he was humiliated when Elizabeth dropped him publicly for Richard. Eddie was so much in love with her, more than Burton ever loved her. This whole story is so sad for all involved, the children also.
Why is it that women blame other women for break ups. Maybe not in this case but almost all women start slinging mud at each other and the man who caused the upset remains stain free.
debbie reynolds was too much lady for a simple disordered mind as it was eddie... debbie´s fault was not to think twice with whom she was getting married... debbie reynolds was my heroine when I was 5 years old, in 1957... and I still feeling the same respect and admiration, most of above when she passed a day after her daughter... that was a real mother´s love...
You never send your husband to console another woman. Never. And he said nasty things in his memoir, so people would run to buy it. Not that hard to figure out. Must have needed $.
Good. It’s all Eddie’s fault anyway because he was the one cheating. I don’t understand why the women are always blamed the most when it is a man who is cheating.
I will always love you Debbie Reynolds, ... our unsinkable Molly Brown and your daughter Carrie Fisher, ... our feisty Princess Leia; may your adorable, wonderful, talented, and peculiar souls find peace, warmth -- and a place to entertain, within God's loving embrace. “Death is a natural part of life.

Man I adored carrie fisher growing up....star wars was just amazing,watching Carrie up here explai ing this was just on point ..bless you carrie....and your family .,you were a blast of sunshine....
Eddie was a rot & Elizabeth as well. They were just the same guilty. The worst thing that u could do to a women is to " steal" her husband. That shoud never happened under any circumstance. Elizabeth had a small child but didnt think much about her girlfriend ,& her small children taken up with Eddie. What a horrible women
Il.lavoro di attore induce spesso a infatuarsi del partner,per questo motivo molti matrimoni sono saltati peccato, per certe coppie che parevano inossodabili. Alida.
@@gloria-sw1iw yeah you wish you had a smidgeon of Debbie Reynolds Talent. She could sing, dance and act ..it you probably never saw any of her movies either.
Debbie was a brilliantly talented entertainer and the industry never really recognized her appropriately. Unfortunately she is more often remembered for the Eddie/Debbie/ Liz scandal or as Carrie's mother. I'll never understand why she sent Eddie to comfort Elizabeth after Mike Todd's death anyway. You don't send your husband to be with a lonely widow considered at the time to be the sexy and most beautiful women in the world. I don't care how innocent Debbie appears.
Apparently their marriage was already messed up, maybe she was "testing" him so that if he did mess around with Liz, she could get a legitimate divorce. But the real truth is she was that innocent and Elizabeth was a good friend at the time, I don't think she ever thought in a million years her good friend was just going to have an affair with her husband. In a sad sort of way, I think Elizabeth also used Debbie's innocence to her advantage and used Debbie. She wasn't a very good person in that respect until she got a little older and matured a bit.
Debbie was never a 'beauty' but she was cute (she always nice teeth/a nice smile), and she aged amazingly!!!!! I suppose she had a really good plastic surgeon. In that clip from 1988, she was 56 years old, but her face was completely smooth. And in the clip from 2000 she was 68. She looked absolutely incredible for those ages.
Different cultures see beauty differently when I've been to South East Asia and show a random photo of young Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor I asked a random young men who they find more attractive in their eyes and most of them choose Debbie Reynolds over Elizabeth Taylor... FYI they didn't know who these two ladies 😂
They were both beautiful, but not Eddie. He was a little Weisel of a dirt bag. Not even a man of good character or values. Pleaseeeee, her husband had just died. And that was supposed to be his best friend. Of course she was devastated and vulnerable, so he took the opportunity. Lost his wife and children. ...not just any wife, but Debbie Reynolds (loyal movie star). Thinking he has the power to hit back .... marries Elizabeth Taylor and says SHE IS THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE. Elizabeth not loyal because she's been married before and knows he is a little Weisel, divorces him later. Boo hoo hoo for the little Weisel.
EDDIE actually told the truth. Debbie and Eddie were already headed for divorce before he had his affair with Taylor. The Public doesn't like to hear that. It's not SALACIOUS enough !
You know what. Eddie was the pawn in this game. Liz was#$@#$. I don't blame Eddie. He gets the bad guy image and Liz gets no blame at all. After reading Eddie's book, sounds like Debbie was a dead piece of ass. As far as a singer Eddie could out sing them all. Maybe not Bing with his smooth voice, but watch that video with Andy Williams and Bobby Darin and he had the voice. He had 5 times the voice that Elvis had.
how could any man not make a move on Elizabeth Taylor, she was gorgeous in those days! watch the movie Cleopatra, that face, could launch a thousand ships, as they say!!
that is very true. she did let herself go, when she was married to the politician Warner. She gain a bit of weight. when she married Larry Fortenski, she lost the weight, and looked great again!!
it kept Debbie Reynolds career going for the rest of her life, with her limited talent, Elizabeth was beautiful, talented, and who could blame Eddie, LIz was the love of his life, most beautiful woman or girl scout? if it had not been for the publicity of this marriage breakup and the name Elizabeth Taylor, you would never have heard of Debbie Reynolds again, most of the films she made bombed at the box office anyway.
Eddie was a genuine nice person, Get over yourselves he made a mistake in marrying Debbie, Liz called her a girl scout, and he fell in love with the most beautiful woman in the world, keep judging everyone, we weren't there. anyway Debbie got great publicity out of it, and it prolonged her career, she wasn't blessed with much talent, people get energy mixed up with talent. Leave Eddie alone,,
I think the reason that Debbie could forgive Liz, other than because she was a real sweetheart, was that she recognized that Eddie took advantage of Liz's grief over the death of her husband. He probably had the hots for her the whole time and just took advantage when the situation presented itself.

Although I am surprise that Connie Stevens never tried to contact Debbie after Eddie left her so the kids could meet.
Eddie dumped Debbie for Liz Liz dumped Eddie for Richard Love Karma and for added kick Eddie Fisher career goodbye!😉
God bless Debbie. When your girlfriend cheats with your husband it's kind of hard to swallow. Debbie Reynolds aged beautifully better than many gorgeous actresses. I heard Fisher was jealous of Debbie expecially when she had the hit song Tammy.
Elizabeth still trifling for that
Liz during heyday was perfect. none could match her even till today.
Debbie Reynolds had girl power Rest In Peace ❤️❤️❤️
Eddie's are like that lol
Not all eddies ..my dad was an eddie and he stayed with my mom for 62 1/2
yrs till he passed away first
??????
What a beautiful-hearted woman! She brings both Eddie and Liz to shame
Eddie truly hurt Carrie by not being a father to her.
one thing i liked about Liz was she made no apologies for who she was and her actions...ppl wntd to stand in judgment of her for stealing debbie's then husband....the press attempted paint her as a home wrecker for her affair with eddie and tried to further put the nails in her coffin by reporting liz & debbie as best friends...liz told barbara walters...she wld describe her relation ship with debbie as a friend but leap yrs away from best friends...eddie fisher was a little weasel that lusted after liz frm the moment he laid eyes on her...when Michael todd died he saw an opening and made it appear as if he was going to console liz in her time of grief...meanwhile he was lusting...but debbie had the last laugh...cause a few short yrs later she dumped eddie for burton...
I totally agree with her. Eddie wanted Elizabeth before Mike Todd died. Maybe he felt guilty about it on some level. Anyway, he wanted to divorce Debbie before Mike did but didn't get a divorce because Debbie got pregnant with his son
Yes I love that about Elizabeth Taylor. She never cared about what anyone thought or said and she put herself first without ANY apologies!! That takes a very strong personality. She was a lover of men for sure. She cared about her own needs over the opinions of anyone else. She needed Eddie at that time to get over Mike Todd. She got more out of men then she did from a female friendship and she was true to her own needs. I admire her a lot. Debbie got the love and support of the media and people and Elizabeth didnt care for that. She didnt care what people said about her. Both were very beautiful in different ways.
It's a good thing that they became good friends again
Elizabeth *DIDNT* steal fisher! He willling left Debbie!
U can't steal men who don't want to be stolen! U can't steal unwilling men...
What a friend Elizabeth was, right?!
Somehow I always felt bad for Eddie, the way he was humiliated when Elizabeth dropped him publicly for Richard. Eddie was so much in love with her, more than Burton ever loved her. This whole story is so sad for all involved, the children also.
monica How you get 'em is how you lose 'em. Eddie publicly humiliated Debbie and left her to raise their babies alone.
Eddie was a philandering jerk
@@luciverdad4834and refused to pay child support
@@luciverdad4834 Debbie and Eddie were no longer in love
@@ElaineDavis-t6d Eddie was a human being
It made Debbie very strong but I bet she wishes she didn’t have to be strong
Why is it that women blame other women for break ups. Maybe not in this case but almost all women start slinging mud at each other and the man who caused the upset remains stain free.
I know when you're partner cheats it's his fault period.
The other person doesn't even matter
Stop blaming liz...it takes 2!!
It's sad how society entirely blames women we. Cheating happens but men r just as involved!!
My dad said Liz was the tramp of Hollywood and Debbie was the sweetheart.
debbie reynolds was too much lady for a simple disordered mind as it was eddie... debbie´s fault was not to think twice with whom she was getting married... debbie reynolds was my heroine when I was 5 years old, in 1957... and I still feeling the same respect and admiration, most of above when she passed a day after her daughter... that was a real mother´s love...
You never send your husband to console another woman. Never. And he said nasty things in his memoir, so people would run to buy it. Not that hard to figure out. Must have needed $.
Not sure why Carrie is whining about this years later. Carrie hurts easily. Many children go through this because of death or divorce.
Good. It’s all Eddie’s fault anyway because he was the one cheating. I don’t understand why the women are always blamed the most when it is a man who is cheating.
Well in this case, Elizabeth was her friend. Not some stranger. So she definitely does deserve some blame for betraying a friend
I will always love you Debbie Reynolds, ... our unsinkable Molly Brown and your daughter Carrie Fisher, ... our feisty Princess Leia; may your adorable, wonderful, talented, and peculiar souls find peace, warmth -- and a place to entertain, within God's loving embrace.
“Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force." -- Yoda
Unsinkable Molly Brown, don't get energy mixed up with talent, 1st choice was Shirley Maclaine or Mitzi Gaynor, two real talents.
Debbie Reynolds was a class act and way more talented than Taylor. Debbie was a true triple threat, and funny.
Man I adored carrie fisher growing up....star wars was just amazing,watching Carrie up here explai ing this was just on point ..bless you carrie....and your family .,you were a blast of sunshine....
Debbie looks like cinderella in the 50's. She can play Cinderella. Why she didn't play the role.
not a lot of talent?
It’s possible
Ladies also after he left her they become real
Good friends again
Eddie was a rot & Elizabeth as well.
They were just the same guilty.
The worst thing that u could do to a women is to " steal" her husband.
That shoud never happened under any circumstance.
Elizabeth had a small child but didnt think much about her girlfriend ,& her small children taken up with Eddie.
What a horrible women
Poor Debbie.
She was a better person than me, thats for sure
yess "the men leave and the women stick together."
Debbie deserved better. Eddie was a jerk, druggie, cheater
Debbie was the Hollywood sweetheart
muu bonito reportage, 💝💞💟👍. ENRIQUE. VALENCIA. ESPAÑA, 7 # 1 # 2017.
Il.lavoro di attore induce spesso a infatuarsi del partner,per questo motivo molti matrimoni sono saltati peccato, per certe coppie che parevano inossodabili. Alida.
Debbie Reynolds was much more talented then Liz...!
Your opinion, not the worlds, Debbie had a very limited talent, and was thankful for all the publicity she was getting, it kept her career going
@@gloria-sw1iw yeah you wish you had a smidgeon of Debbie Reynolds Talent. She could sing, dance and act ..it you probably never saw any of her movies either.
Debbie was a brilliantly talented entertainer and the industry never really recognized her appropriately. Unfortunately she is more often remembered for the Eddie/Debbie/ Liz scandal or as Carrie's mother. I'll never understand why she sent Eddie to comfort Elizabeth after Mike Todd's death anyway. You don't send your husband to be with a lonely widow considered at the time to be the sexy and most beautiful women in the world. I don't care how innocent Debbie appears.
Apparently their marriage was already messed up, maybe she was "testing" him so that if he did mess around with Liz, she could get a legitimate divorce. But the real truth is she was that innocent and Elizabeth was a good friend at the time, I don't think she ever thought in a million years her good friend was just going to have an affair with her husband. In a sad sort of way, I think Elizabeth also used Debbie's innocence to her advantage and used Debbie. She wasn't a very good person in that respect until she got a little older and matured a bit.
But honestly.......would you have done the same thing ?
@@sisterluke poor debbie she is too kind, rip debbie and carie
Debbie was never a 'beauty' but she was cute (she always nice teeth/a nice smile), and she aged amazingly!!!!! I suppose she had a really good plastic surgeon. In that clip from 1988, she was 56 years old, but her face was completely smooth. And in the clip from 2000 she was 68. She looked absolutely incredible for those ages.
Different cultures see beauty differently when I've been to South East Asia and show a random photo of young Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor I asked a random young men who they find more attractive in their eyes and most of them choose Debbie Reynolds over Elizabeth Taylor... FYI they didn't know who these two ladies 😂
They were both beautiful, but not Eddie. He was a little Weisel of a dirt bag. Not even a man of good character or values. Pleaseeeee, her husband had just died. And that was supposed to be his best friend. Of course she was devastated and vulnerable, so he took the opportunity. Lost his wife and children. ...not just any wife, but Debbie Reynolds (loyal movie star). Thinking he has the power to hit back .... marries Elizabeth Taylor and says SHE IS THE LOVE OF HIS LIFE. Elizabeth not loyal because she's been married before and knows he is a little Weisel, divorces him later. Boo hoo hoo for the little Weisel.
EDDIE actually told the truth. Debbie and Eddie were already headed for divorce before he had his affair with Taylor. The Public doesn't like to hear that. It's not SALACIOUS enough !
God bless her. I wouldn't want that chick in my life.
I imagine Debbie Reynolds in hindsight thanked Liz . Eddie’s presents as a very shallow weak man with minimal talent .
debbie is a natural born sweetheart
Debbie was a wonderful person,,,very classy lady
He took advantage of elizabeth's grief.
LOVE OF MOTHER LIZ Debbie's truth
Debbie is such a lovely lady
Да разве можно не влюбиться в элизабет, она женщина неба
Debbie ❤❤❤
Carrie was so funny, miss her humor
Well! FOLKS😅THATS HOLLYWOOD
Elisabeth taylor was a beauty most beautiful actress in Hollywood
Carrie Fisher is funny....
Chin Up
,si la perdonó

Yolo
You know what. Eddie was the pawn in this game. Liz was#$@#$. I don't blame Eddie. He gets the bad guy image and Liz gets no blame at all. After reading Eddie's book, sounds like Debbie was a dead piece of ass. As far as a singer Eddie could out sing them all. Maybe not Bing with his smooth voice, but watch that video with Andy Williams and Bobby Darin and he had the voice. He had 5 times the voice that Elvis had.
how could any man not make a move on Elizabeth Taylor, she was gorgeous in those days! watch the movie Cleopatra, that face, could launch a thousand ships, as they say!!
Elizabeth was even gorgeous in her 50s and 60s. It wasn't till the last 2 or 3 years of her life that her illnesses affected her
that is very true. she did let herself go, when she was married to the politician Warner. She gain a bit of weight. when she married Larry Fortenski, she lost the weight, and looked great again!!
it kept Debbie Reynolds career going for the rest of her life, with her limited talent, Elizabeth was beautiful, talented, and who could blame Eddie, LIz was the love of his life, most beautiful woman or girl scout? if it had not been for the publicity of this marriage breakup and the name Elizabeth Taylor, you would never have heard of Debbie Reynolds again, most of the films she made bombed at the box office anyway.
So she had to be disrespected ??? Whatever
Disrespected?
First comment
Is that it? A very profound comment indeed.
Demented Gaming Well done. Nothing else to say?
Eddie was a genuine nice person, Get over yourselves he made a mistake in marrying Debbie, Liz called her a girl scout, and he fell in love with the most beautiful woman in the world, keep judging everyone, we weren't there. anyway Debbie got great publicity out of it, and it prolonged her career, she wasn't blessed with much talent, people get energy mixed up with talent. Leave Eddie alone,,
Doenst Debbie hate her ex? Lol 😂 she’s prob like Whoo girl you saved me a headache 🤣🤣🤣
