Elizabeth Taylor Denies Engagement Reports

Elizabeth Taylor won't be giving marriage a ninth try.

The legendary actress took to her Twitter account Monday to address the report that she was engaged to 49-year-old businessman Jason Winters.

"The rumors regarding my engagement simply aren't true," the 78-year-old wrote. "Jason is my manager and dearest friend. I love him with all my heart."

Taylor has been married eight times before, twice to Richard Burton.

Her exes are: Conrad Hilton (1950-51), Michael Wilding (1952-57), Mike Todd (1957-58), Eddie Fisher (1959-64), Richard Burton (1964-74 and again 1975-76), Sen. John Warner (1976-82) and Larry Fortensky (1991-96).

Taylor was widowed in 1958 when Todd died in a plane crash. All of the other marriages ended in divorce. Taylor had two children with Wilding and one child each with Todd and Burton.
