Former Sen. John Warner and Elizabeth Taylor met on a blind date with Queen Elizabeth
Fox News
John Warner was the sixth of Elizabeth Taylor's seven husbands. The two were married from 1976 to 1982.
The unlikely pair first met on a blind date in 1976 when the British ambassador asked Warner to escort Taylor to an embassy party honoring another Elizabeth – the Queen of England. The reigning monarch was visiting Washington at the time. Warner and Taylor married that December on his farm near Middleburg, Virginia. "Well, I thought we would get married, live on a farm, raise horses," Taylor told Larry King on his show in 2001. "… And I thought it would be all very sort of farmish, and jobby, horsey, and I could have animals, and I would go out and brand the cattle."More Related News
