Summary

  • Debbie Reynolds viewed her ex-husband's affair as a bedtime story.
  • Carrie Fisher's father left Reynolds for Elizabeth Taylor.
  • The affair began while Taylor consoled Fisher after a tragedy.

Billie Lourd revealed that her grandmother, Debbie Reynolds, had a unique perspective on personal turmoil. Reynolds apparently recounted the details of her ex-husband Eddie Fisher's affair with Elizabeth Taylor as a "bedtime story" for her children. This affair ultimately led to the dissolution of Reynolds and Fisher's four-year marriage in 1959.

During the time of their divorce, Fisher had been consoling Carrie Fisher following the tragic death of her husband, Mike Todd, in a 1958 plane crash. This period marked a significant upheaval for the family, with Carrie Fisher and her brother Todd Fisher being born prior to the separation.
