Larry Fortensky Biography

Larry Fortensky is one of the most popular and richest Celebrity who was born on January 17, 1952 in Stockton, California, United States. Larry Fortensky (January 17, 1952 – July 7, 2016) was a construction worker best known as the seventh and last husband (but eighth marriage) of actress Elizabeth Taylor. Fortensky and Taylor were married on October 6, 1991, at Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch and divorced on October 31, 1996.

In August 1996, Fortensky was arrested for drug use after police in Hemet, California, found him in an illegally parked luxury motor home with no license plates with a woman he identified as his live-in maid. Fortensky, whose black BMW was parked by the home’s front door, refused to allow police to search the motor home, but he was arrested for being under the influence of drugs at the time.

He bought a three-bedroom house in Temecula, California, in 2002 with money from the divorce settlement. In 2009 Taylor, with whom he remained friendly and spoke on the phone twice a month, reportedly gave him $50,000 to pay the $5,800/month mortgage and keep the house out of foreclosure. It was repossessed in 2010 after plummeting in value.

Fortensky’s last phone call with Taylor was a day before she entered the hospital in February 2011. Following her March 2011 death, she left Fortensky $800,000 in her will. From April 2011 he lived with his sister Donna in Menifee, California. He was unable to work following his accident, for which he took medication. He was estranged from his sister Linda, who sold information to the National Enquirer, and from his daughter Julie.

When Taylor and Fortensky married in 1991, Fortensky was reported to have a prenuptial agreement in which he would receive $1 million (with no additional support) if the marriage lasted five years. The couple split after five years in 1996 with Fortensky hiring New York divorce attorney Raoul Felder.
