The Us magazine reported quoting sources that the wheelchair-bound star and Winters, of talent agency Sterling Winters Mana-gement, have been together for almost three years.
“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. Right now they are keeping it between them,” the source said.
Access Hollywood reported that they had contacted the actress’ rep, who said: “We generally don’t respond to queries regarding her relationship status, but it is well known and documented that they have been together for some time. We do our best to not be referenced in these matters.” If the reports are true, Winters will be Taylor’s ninth husband, her last being construction worker Larry Fortensky. Taylor married Fortensky at good friend Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch in 1991, but the couple divorced five years later. Her most famous marriage till date is with late actor and her Cleopatra co-star Richard Burton, whom she famously married twice.
They first married in Montreal, Canada in March 1964 but divorced in June 1974. They walked down the aisle again sixteen months later only to get divorced again after just nine months.
Taylor’s first husband was hotel heir Conrad “Nicky” Hilton, the great-uncle of socialite sisters Paris and Nicky Hilton. She married him in 1050 and divorced him a year later to marry Essex-born actor Michael Wilding in 1952, with whom she had two sons, Michael and Christopher.
