How many times has actor Richard Burton been divorced during his life, and from whom ?

75% of players answered correctly.

THE CORRECT ANSWER: 4 times (Sybil Williams, Elizabeth Taylor 2 times, Suzy Hunt)

Richard Burton, one of the most charismatic and tormented actors of his generation, lived a love life as epic as his roles on screen. He was divorced a total of four times. His first marriage to Sybil Williams ended in 1963 after he met Elizabeth Taylor on the set of "Cleopatra."What followed was the most publicized romance of the 20th century: Burton and Taylor married in 1964, divorced in 1974, remarried in 1975, and divorced again in 1976. This double breakup counts as two separate divorces. His fourth divorce was from model Suzy Hunt (ex-wife of James Hunt) in 1982.He remained married to his last wife, Sally Hay, until her death in 1984. This tumultuous private life, marked by alcohol and all-consuming passion, often overshadowed his immense Shakespearean talent, making him a tragic and fascinating figure in Hollywood history.
