1959: Elizabeth Taylor and Eddie Fisher

It’s sort of ironic and bizarre how Liz Taylor and Ed Fisher were once involved with other people, and their relationship with those people was also the most popular during their respective years. In 1959, however, Taylor and Fisher became the most famous celebrity couple. Taylor is a legend; she became a legend a long time ago, which was credited to her superb fame and beauty that can launch a thousand ships.

Their infamous relationship was one of the things that rocked the world of show business. Not only because of their love triangle with Fisher’s former wife, whom he left for Taylor, Debbie Reynolds, but also because their marriage didn’t last long. Taylor went off and left Fisher for her co-star Richard Burton. Reynolds and Fisher were one of the world’s most favorite couples, while Taylor and Fisher’s was one of the most hated. Years later, Taylor apologized to Reynolds about what she did, and Reynolds was quick to reply that their friendship was worth more than one man.
