Once an unknown construction worker, Fortensky found fame as the seventh and final husband of screen legend Taylor.

The two were married on October 6, 1991 at Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch. He was 49; she was 59. Fortensky reportedly signed a prenup that would grant him $1 million if the marriage lasted five years.

Almost exactly five years later, they divorced on Halloween, 1996.

Fortensky suffered a series of misfortunes following the split.
