When Elizabeth Taylor famously stole the husband of her best friend Debbie Reynolds, it became a scandal heard around the world.
Reynolds, known for her role in “Singin' in the Rain,” was married to singer Eddie Fisher while Taylor was wedded to Mike Todd.
However, everything took a turn for the worse after Todd's death in 1958.
Reynolds' son, Todd Fisher, recently spoke out about Taylor's rendezvous with his father and how it affected his mother.
In an interview with Fox News, Todd Fisher shared that his father left his mother for Elizabeth Taylor, which caused a lot of anger among people.
He also mentioned that many referred to Taylor as the “bad girl” who had come a long way from her innocent beginnings in “National Velvet.”
Reynolds, on the other hand, was seen as the “good girl” who had been humiliated by her husband's actions.
Despite this, she maintained her classy demeanor throughout the messy situation.
Todd Fisher reminisced about his mother's strength during those difficult times, saying she never spoke ill of his father in front of them, even though the scandal was constantly in the news.
The scandal, he added, still continues to be talked about to this day.
Despite the public shame and the label of being a virtuous victim, Reynolds managed to preserve her clean image.
She truly embodied the persona she portrayed to the public – a wholesome and genuine person, without any hidden dark side.
As the years went by, Reynolds and Taylor eventually reconciled their differences.
They even worked together in the film “These Old Broads” in 2001, proving that time can heal wounds and mend broken relationships.
The affair between Elizabeth Taylor and Eddie Fisher remains a chapter in Hollywood history that will always be remembered.
However, it is also a testament to the strength and grace displayed by Debbie Reynolds in the face of adversity.
Her legacy as a true icon and a remarkable woman lives on.
