Debbie Reynolds Reveals Eddie Fisher and Elizabeth Taylor Pressured Her into Divorce

The shocking love triangle involving Debbie Reynolds, Eddie Fisher, and Elizabeth Taylor continues to captivate the public's attention.

Reynolds recently opened up about how Fisher and Taylor guilted her into ending their marriage.

The divorce between Reynolds and Fisher was a highly publicized scandal that dominated the headlines for an entire year.

Fisher, who was Reynolds' first husband, had an affair with Taylor, who was his fourth wife.

The two actors had been close friends since high school, but their relationship took a dramatic turn when the affair began.

Reynolds claims that Fisher and Taylor pressured her into granting him a divorce.

Reynolds and Fisher's love story began when they met in their early 20s.

Reynolds was already a successful Hollywood star, while Fisher's singing career was taking off.

Their romance only added to their popularity, and they became known as America's sweethearts.

They tied the knot in 1955 and welcomed their daughter, Carrie Fisher, the following year.

Their love was evident to the public, with Fisher often bringing Reynolds on stage during his performances and referring to her as his princess.

In turn, Reynolds affectionately called him her handsome prince.

They were also good friends with Taylor and her third husband, Mike Todd.

Tragedy struck in 1958 when Todd died in a plane crash.

By 1959, Reynolds and Fisher's marriage came to an end.

However, Reynolds managed to avoid divorce for another year.

Reynolds reveals that she was the last to learn about her husband's affair with Taylor.

She discovered the truth in a shocking way.

Reynolds had encouraged Fisher to comfort Taylor after Todd's death, not realizing that it would lead to an affair.

One day, while missing Fisher during his tour, Reynolds called Taylor's hotel room.

To her dismay, Fisher answered the phone, and she could hear Taylor's voice in the background.

This revelation shattered Reynolds and made her realize that her husband had been unfaithful.

Despite hints in the papers and whispers from friends, Reynolds chose to ignore the signs of infidelity until that moment.

She describes the shock and devastation she felt upon discovering them together.

The affair left her completely shattered.

When Fisher returned home, he confessed his love for Taylor and expressed his desire for a divorce.

Reynolds warned him that if he married Taylor, she would eventually leave him, just as she had predicted.

Reynolds herself had been cautioned against marrying Fisher by Frank Sinatra, who told her that they were not faithful.

However, despite the warnings, Reynolds wanted to preserve her family and raise their two children together.

Nevertheless, Fisher and Taylor relentlessly pressured her, making her feel guilty for keeping them apart and denying them true love.

Eventually, Reynolds decided to release Fisher from their marriage.

The divorce between Reynolds and Fisher was finalized in 1959, and Fisher married Taylor on the same day.

Reynolds reflects on the painful decision she had to make, considering her religious beliefs and the impact it would have on her children.

Despite her initial reluctance, she finally gave in to the guilt and allowed Fisher to go.

Reynolds' prediction about Taylor and Fisher's relationship proved to be true when Taylor met Richard Burton on the set of Cleopatra.

Debbie Reynolds' story of heartbreak and betrayal continues to be a compelling tale that showcases the complexities of relationships and the influence of outside forces.
