Who is Elizabeth Taylor's latest husband?

Answer:
Actress Elizabeth Taylor hasn't been married

since divorcing former Teamster Larry Fortensky, 55, more than 10 years ago. Fortensky is Taylor's latest husband, but we certainly wouldn't want to go on record saying that he is the last.

Elizabeth Taylor is famous for the number of times she walked down the aisle. The actress has so far been married eight times to seven husbands (she married Richard Burton twice).

In what probably should have been a clue to their future chances as husband and wife, Taylor and Fortensky met while both were undergoing treatment at the Betty Ford Clinic.
Elizabeth Taylor and Fortensky were married in October 1991.

Many at the time asked - Larry and Liz, what are you thinking?

Put simply: Getting married to a recovering alcoholic. Very costly. Having the ceremony at Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch. Very risky. Marrying a woman 20 years older that you (who's been married seven times before). Priceless.

Elizabeth Taylor and Larry Fortensky divorced on Halloween 1996.
