Elizabeth Taylor to marry for ninth time

Elizabeth Taylor is set to marry for the ninth time, to a man 30 years her junior. The 49-year-old talent agent by the name of Jason Winters and the Hollywood legend have been together for almost three years now.

The report said that the actress had secretly become engaged to her long time companion, Jason Winters, 49, an entertainment manager who recently took on Janet Jackson as a client.

Taylor has been married eight times - twice to Richard Burton. Her last marriage, to construction worker Larry Fortensky, ended after five years in 1996.

In 2007 she gushed about Winters to gossip columnist Liz Smith, describing him as "one of the most wonderful men I've ever known, that's why I love him".
