Elizabeth Taylor: 8 marriages, 50 movies, 2 Oscars, 100 operations, a £360m fortune | Mail Online: "In 79 fabulous years, she looked death in the eye countless times and lived to tell the tale.
But yesterday, after a life as dramatic as any movie script, Elizabeth Taylor's battle was over.
She died of heart failure in hospital, with her four children at her side. And when the New York Times paid tribute to Hollywood's last movie goddess, it had to admit that Miss Taylor had actually outlived the obituary writer by six years.
The Oscar-winning actress spent the final six weeks of her life at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles. She had been admitted after her weight plummeted to less than 98lb and the heart failure diagnosed in 2004 threatened to overwhelm her."
