"Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burtons marriage"
" Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burtons marriage" The Vatican condemned Burton and Taylors affair, which began when both were married to others, as " erotic vagrancy".The press closely followed their relationship before, during, and after their ten years of marriage, due to great public interest in " the most famous film star in the world and the man many believed to be the finest classical actor of his generation." Taylor wanted to focus on her marriage rather than her career, and gained weight in an unsuccessful attempt to not receive film roles. Sixteen months after divorcing Burton said, " You can t keep clapping a couple of sticks [of dynamite] together without expecting them to blow up" they remarried in a private ceremony in Kasane, Botswana, but soon separated and re-divorced in 1976.

Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton - A Love Story Fueled by Scandal and Passion
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the iconic Hollywood couple, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, on their way to a glamorous party in London. The year is 1968, a time when their tumultuous relationship had already made headlines around the world. Their love affair began amidst controversy, as both were married to others at the time. The Vatican condemned their passionate connection as "erotic vagrancy" adding fuel to the media frenzy that followed them throughout their ten-year marriage. Taylor's desire to prioritize her personal life over her career led her to gain weight intentionally, hoping it would discourage film offers. However, despite her efforts, she remained one of the most sought-after actresses of her generation. After divorcing once in 1974, they couldn't resist each other's magnetic pull and remarried in a private ceremony in Botswana. Sadly, this reunion was short-lived as they soon found themselves drifting apart again before ultimately re-divorcing in 1976. The intensity of their relationship can be felt through this photograph - two individuals who captivated audiences with their talent but struggled to maintain stability behind closed doors. Maurice Tibbles' lens beautifully captures a moment frozen in time; an image that encapsulates both the glamour and turmoil that defined Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's legendary romance.
