Elizabeth Taylor denies engagement to companion
0 
Screen icon Elizabeth Taylor on Monday denied rumors that she was engaged to be married for the ninth time.
Various media reports surfaced last week hinting that the 78- year-old actress was engaged to manager Jason Winters, 49.
"The rumors regarding my engagement simply aren't true," Taylor wrote on her Twitter page. "Jason is my manager and dearest friend. I love him with all my heart."
The news was broken by a source in an exclusive interview with UsMagazine.com. Taylor's aide confirmed that the two are romantically linked as a longtime couple, but would not comment further.
The couple took a romantic vacation together at a Hawaiian resort in 2007, British tabloids reported. "She didn't think she'd fall in love again, but since Jason came into her life that has all changed," a source close to the two was quoted as saying.
Taylor has tied the knot for eight times, and her latest marriage to a construction worker ended after five years in 1996.
She has been wheelchair-bound, and has suffered many ailments including heart and spinal cord problems.
