Elizabeth Taylor, award-winning British-American actress, is known for more than just her leading lady status and her violet-colored eyes. The Hollywood starlet is also often remembered for her significant number of marriages — eight, to be specific — to a total of seven men.

At just 18 years old, Taylor married her first husband, Conrad Hilton Jr., who was 23 at the time, in 1950. Following their divorce, Taylor went on to tie the knot with husbands Michael Wilding, Mike Todd, Eddie Fisher, Richard Burton (twice), John W. Warner and Larry Fortensky.

Although Taylor had more weddings than most, she didn’t have children with each of her husbands, welcoming just three kids with two men and adopting one child with another. Get to know each of Elizabeth Taylor’s four children, Michael, Christopher, Liza and Maria.

Taylor’s first child is Michael Wilding Jr., who was born to the actress and her second husband, Michael Wilding, on January 6, 1953. Her first son followed in her footsteps as an actor, appearing in his mother’s film, The Taming of The Shrew (1967). In the 1980s, Wilding Jr. began his own acting career.

In 1971, Wilding Jr. became a father to his first child, daughter Laela Wilding. A few years later, the actor had another daughter, Naomi, in 1976. In 1982, he married his now-wife, Brook Palance, with whom he welcomed a third child, son Tarquin, in 1989.
