The legendary love life of Hollywood actress, Elizabeth Taylor is once again in the spotlight with the release of the new Fox Nation docuseries, Elizabeth Taylor: Rebel Superstar.
In a new revelation, a person who knew Taylor better than almost anyone, her stylist and close friend Vicky Tiel, has revealed intimate details about the star’s most passionate romance.
Tiel settled a question Hollywood has debated for decades: which of Taylor’s seven husbands she considered ‘the best in bed.’
Tiel revealed to People magazine that, acclaimed actor Richard Burton was unequivocally, Taylor’s favorite lover.
Richard and Taylor married and divorced twice after they first fell in love on the set of 1963’s Cleopatra.
Tiel shared a touching final message from Burton to support her claim.
‘Before Richard died, I think two days before, he called me up… He said, ‘’I don’t think I’m going to live very long, and I just wanted you and Ron to tell Elizabeth I’ll always love her the most. I love her forever and ever. And I miss her and I love her with all my heart.’”
Tiel recounted visiting Taylor shortly after, finding the star in her bathroom where the ledge surrounding her bathtub was covered entirely with framed pictures—all of her and Richard.
Even though Taylor died in August 1984, Girl revealed Taylor kept one last letter Burton wrote to her days before his death, where he wondered if they might have another chance—in a bedside drawer until her own death in 2011.
