  • In a series of interviews spanning more than a quarter century from 1987 to 2013, Debbie Reynolds shares her take on Elizabeth Taylor, and their close friendship that was shattered when Elizabeth began a relationship with Debbie's then-husband Eddie Fisher, causing one of the biggest tabloid scandals of the 1950s.

Yes it was the spouse who technically betrayed his wife, but the friend he cheated with bears some responsibility.

I could also see elizabeth growing to respect Debbie ultimately though, and forgiving her, just not without throwing some snark first 🤣 Debbie was definately talented. Her first turn in 'singing in the rain' showed that, but I also love Elizabeth's presence and the contribution she made to AIDS.

      @Shirley King I think both Debbie Reynolds and Elizabeth Taylor were too good for Eddie Fisher. I am a widow and can tell you that having just lost Mike Todd, Taylor was totally vulnerable.(She also had an infant daughter by Todd). Fisher had a "thing" for her before Mike Todd died, but she had been truly happy w/Todd. Being with Fisher was a way to keep Todd with her, but only until she "woke up". If anything, she did Debbie Reynolds a favor which I believe Reynolds realized, which then helped them mend their friendship. They were both very special women.

    I definately feel for Debbie always being asked about this, then again, it is definately juicy. She is incredible and an amazing talent. 'Singing in the Rain' was one of my favorite movies when I was younger and I can't believe she was only around 18 and singing, dancing and acting at that level in the film, plus she was so pretty and aged so gracefully. I've really grown to love and appreciate Elizabeth Taylor as well though. So beautiful, so brave, loyal, fiery and compassionate, with such a film presence. Am I the only one that feels a bit for Eddie Fisher though? I get he made a mistake and caused a lot of pain but he wasn't the only one and he was really disrespected in the end, and his career took a nose dive. Hope they're all happy and at peace in heaven ♡

Even if Liz had made a move, it was also up to Eddie to say no and he didn't either.

She knew Debbie and recalled what a friend she was and how wholesome she seemed and how easy it would be. Liz never wanted to be alone but she didn't think twice of getting rid of Eddie since he was such a mouse compared to Richard. Eddie cheated, he took vows with Debbie, not Elizabeth.

    The way the press asked Debbie Reynolds such intrusive, insensitive questions was shocking and repulsive. She said in one of these interviews that people more or less hounded her on the subject of how it felt to be betrayed by two people she loved and trusted, and that was actually putting it mildly. But I think she was a champion to be able to refrain from telling the rude jerks off outright, or even knocking some of them down ...in the same way she described Mike Todd and Elizabeth Taylor slugging one another. Wow. What a series of kerfuffles her friendships and marriages were.
