Los Angeles, April 10 (DPA) Hollywood legend Elizabeth Taylor is to marry for the ninth time at the ripe old age of 78, US Weekly magazine reported Friday.
The report said that the actress had secretly become engaged to her long time companion, Jason Winters, 49, an entertainment manager who recently took on Janet Jackson as a client.
