00:00You said on this subject, never safe until you're seven feet underground, but why the escape hatch?
00:06Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're exploring the most notorious and scandalous times in history
00:12when famous faces were involved in love affairs with married celebrities.
00:16We had struggled to keep it going, but obviously we'd both run out of steam.
00:22Sienna Miller
00:23Balthazar Getty and Rosetta Millington
00:25Having been on the other side of an affair after her partner Jude Law hooked up with his children's nanny in 2005,
00:32Miller found herself as the other woman in 2008.
00:35Paparazzi have driven Sienna Miller to tears after pouncing on her outside a Los Angeles petrol station.
00:41That year, intimate photos of her and Balthazar Getty, the actor and musician, were published in newspapers.
00:47The problem was that Getty, part of the famous family, had been married to fashion designer Rosetta Millington since 2000.
00:54So, dating a young actor was never something I thought was a good idea.
01:02Miller was heavily criticized in the press for being a homewrecker.
01:05She went on to successfully sue the newspapers that published the compromising photos.
01:10You make the point that the actions of the news of the world made your life hell
01:17and damaged a lot of your relationships, making you nervous and paranoid.
01:21By 2009, the affair was over.
01:24Getty went back to Millington, and they are still together today.
01:28Tori Spelling
01:29Dean McDermott and Mary Jo Eustace
01:32Only a year into having tied the knot with Charlie Shanian,
01:35in 2005, Spelling was cast in the Lifetime TV film Mind Over Murder.
01:40There, she met her co-star and soon-to-be-affair partner Dean McDermott,
01:44who'd been married to Mary Jo Eustace since 1993.
01:48What do you say?
01:49What do you say?
01:51Come on, I'll buy you a cup of coffee.
01:53You're supposed to bring the coffee.
01:57The same night they met, the duo hooked up.
02:00This caused both marriages to implode, resulting in a double divorce.
02:04A month after Spelling divorced Shanian, she and McDermott had their nuptials, which they renewed in 2010.
02:10However, it wasn't all post-affair bliss.
02:13In 2014, McDermott admitted he'd cheated on Spelling.
02:16I'm so sorry.
02:17Are you really sorry?
02:18I'm so sorry.
02:20Look.
02:20Look me in the eye.
02:22Look, I'm so sorry.
02:23I'm so sorry.
02:25I am so sorry.
02:27While they reconciled and tried for several years to stay together,
02:30McDermott posted on social media in 2023 that they'd split.
02:34The following year, they filed for divorce.
02:37I definitely, it was time, and I feel like everything comes full circle when life is supposed to have a shift.
02:44It shifts for you.
02:46Lauren Bacall, Humphrey Bogart, and Mayo Metho.
02:49I'm gonna get that wallet, Slim.
02:52I'd rather you wouldn't call me Slim.
02:55I'm a little too skinny to take it kindly.
02:57In 1938, Humphrey Bogart and Mayo Metho tied the knot, securing themselves as one of Hollywood's biggest power couples.
03:05However, their life wasn't easy.
03:07The couple reportedly clashed, with Metho allegedly having drinking and mental health issues.
03:13With issues mounting, Bogart was then cast in 1944's To Have and Have Not.
03:18His character's love interest was played by Bacall.
03:21At the time, she was 19 while he was 45.
03:24Regardless of the big age gap, the two began having an affair.
03:36By 1945, Bogart and Metho had divorced.
03:41A few months later, he married Bacall.
03:43While there were allegations of affairs from both, the couple would act together and remain married until Bogart passed away in 1957.
03:51I would look across the room, and wherever there were people laughing and there was fun...
03:54He was there.
03:54He was there.
03:55At the center of it.
03:56Yes.
03:57Because he was an original.
03:59There wasn't anybody like him.
04:00Marla Maples, Donald and Ivana Trump.
04:03While attending a celebrity tennis match, model and actor Maples met Donald Trump.
04:08While they started as friends, it soon became something far more intimate.
04:12We really anticipated getting married and having a baby, not having a baby and getting married.
04:16So why didn't you marry her right away when you found out she was pregnant?
04:19Why did you...
04:19Indecision.
04:20Indecision.
04:20Trump had been married to Czech model Ivanka Zelnitskova since 1977.
04:25In 1989, Donald arranged for Maples to appear during a family skiing vacation, causing the two women to clash when the affair was discovered by Ivana.
04:34And Marla and Ivana were here.
04:38And there wasn't shouting, but you could obviously see there was some friction.
04:42A month later, in 1990, the New York Post released an infamous headline about Maples' positive review of Donald in the bedroom.
04:50By the end of the year, Ivana and Donald were officially divorced.
04:53In the book, she gets the blame.
04:56He married Maples in 1993.
05:08However, amid allegations she'd had an affair with her bodyguard, Maples and Donald split in 1999.
05:14Leanne Rimes
05:15Eddie Cibrian
05:16There seems to be something in the catering when it comes to Lifetime movies.
05:22This time, it was 2009's Northern Lights that caused not one, but two marriages to crumble.
05:34I didn't mean to scare you.
05:36Cast as the leads were country musician Rimes and actor Eddie Cibrian.
05:40Rimes had gotten married to Dean Shermay in 2002, while Cibrian got hitched to Brandi Glanville in 2001.
05:48Several months after meeting on set, the two began their affair.
05:51He hopes people will finally accept that what started as an affair between two people who were married to other people is indeed a really solid relationship.
06:01As reports came out about it, Cibrian made statements to deny he'd had any relationship with Rimes.
06:07However, shortly afterward, Rimes and Cibrian broke up with their partners and later got divorced.
06:13In 2011, the new couple had their nuptials and have been together ever since.
06:18Love doesn't ask if you want to fall
06:23June Carter
06:25Johnny and Vivian Cash
06:27Before he was a country musician, Johnny Cash married Vivian Liberto in 1954.
06:42Yet, as his celebrity took off, their marriage began to decline.
06:46Johnny would spend long periods away from home touring.
06:49He met Carter, who was a part of the family behind the Carter family.
06:52I'm going to Jackson
06:54I'm going to mess around
06:58Yet, during their time on tour together, Carter and Johnny fell for each other.
07:03It's believed that one of his most famous songs, Ring of Fire, is an allusion to the affair.
07:08I fell into a burning ring of fire
07:11I went down, down, down
07:14And the flames went higher
07:16Both married couples, Johnny and Vivian, plus Carter and Edwin Nix, divorced in 1966.
07:22Two years later, Carter and Johnny tied the knot.
07:25They remained together for the rest of their lives, passing away within months of each other in 2003.
07:30What have I become
07:33My sweetest friend
07:39Ingrid Bergman
07:41Roberto Rossellini and Marcella DiMarcis
07:44When this affair was discovered, the world went into a meltdown as it painted Bergman as the biggest homewrecker ever.
07:51In 1948, Bergman sent Rossellini a letter requesting he cast her for a project.
07:56In that letter you said to him, quite innocently, uh, I'm afraid the only Italian I know is, Te Amo, is it I love you?
08:04Yes, but I
08:05Perhaps if you'd known the phrase for be careful or something
08:07Well, he did just that for 1950s Stromboli.
08:11Their affection went further than the professional as the duo had an affair.
08:15It's so beautiful here
08:16It's nice to have you in peace
08:19They would see me in Hollywood now
08:23That secret leaked, causing Rossellini's wife, Marcella DiMarcis, to divorce him.
08:29Because of his refusal, Bergman had to divorce her husband, Peter Lindstrom, by proxy in Mexico, allowing her to marry Rossellini in 1950.
08:37During their marriage, which ended in 1957 after Rossellini had another affair, Bergman was essentially blacklisted in Hollywood.
08:45My voice was taken off all the radio programs that asked for money, you know, charity, Salvation Army, whatever.
08:53Even my voice over the radio was supposed to be dangerous.
08:56She managed to return afterward and sealed her name as one of the industry's greatest actors.
09:01Katharine Hepburn
09:03Spencer & Louise Tracy
09:05In 1942, Hepburn and Spencer Tracy starred as love interests in Woman of the Year.
09:10Not only did this birth one of the most famous on-screen pairings in Hollywood, making nine films together,
09:16but it created one of the most iconic and saddest celebrity relationships.
09:21Darling.
09:25Do I look like the outstanding husband of the outstanding woman of the year?
09:28You're fine.
09:28It was an open secret that Hepburn and Spencer were having an affair, as he was married to Louise Tracy.
09:35While they were married on paper, the couple was essentially living separate lives.
09:39However, in 1967, shortly after completing Guess Who's Coming to Dinner with Hepburn,
09:45she found Spencer's body after he had a heart attack.
09:48And there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that your son feels for my daughter that I didn't feel for Christina.
09:56Their affair had lasted 26 years.
09:59However, out of respect for the family, Hepburn didn't attend the funeral.
10:04Are you happy finally?
10:06Is it a nice, long rest you're having?
10:09Making up for all your tossing and turning in life?
10:13Elizabeth Taylor
10:14Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds
10:16In 1958, Taylor's world was destroyed as her husband of one year, Mike Todd, had perished in a plane crash.
10:24Then he came up to say goodbye to me five times.
10:28And it's like we both knew that, it's like we both had a premonition.
10:33Soon after, Eddie Fisher went to Taylor to offer comfort.
10:37This wasn't unusual, as he and his wife, Debbie Reynolds, were very close to Taylor and Todd.
10:42When Elizabeth flew to Chicago for the funeral, she was accompanied by Todd's best friend, singer Eddie Fisher.
10:49His wife, Debbie Reynolds, stayed in Los Angeles to watch over Elizabeth's three small children.
10:55They even named their son after Taylor's husband.
10:58But this time, Fisher and Taylor got too close, beginning an affair.
11:02Soon, it became public knowledge.
11:04This led to Fisher's TV show being canceled in 1959.
11:08The same year, Reynolds divorced Fisher, and he married Taylor before splitting in 1964.
11:14Taylor later called the marriage a mistake, as she was acting out of grief.
11:29Thankfully, Reynolds and Taylor would later reconcile their friendship.
11:33I really owe Elizabeth a favor for breaking that whole situation.
11:37But I don't blame her for the break, I blame Eddie for the break.

11:56Camilla Parker Bowles, Charles III and Princess Diana.
12:00In Diana's immortal words in her 1995 Panorama episode,
12:05Well, there were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.
12:09She married the future Charles III in 1981.
12:13Rather than his new bride, Charles' eyes were on Camilla.
12:17The two had previously had an affair when she was married to Andrew Parker Bowles.
12:21The illicit relationship resumed in 1986.
12:24In 1992, Diana and Charles announced their separation.
12:28Shortly after, a royal scandal emerged when recorded telephone conversations between Charles and Camilla were published.
12:35Famously, it involved Charles wishing he was a tampon.
12:39There's uproar in Britain over the publication of the so-called Camillagate tapes.
12:44The phone call allegedly between Prince Charles and a close female friend was taped three years ago.
12:49He will not come back from this.
12:50By 1995, Camilla and Andrew divorced, with Charles and Diana following a year later.
12:56Camilla and Charles married in 2005, eventually becoming the UK's king and queen.
13:02May thy servant Camilla, who wears this crown, be filled by thine abundant grace and with all princely virtues.
13:10What other love triangles stand out to you?
13:13Let us know below.
13:14I've been seeing another man for the last 11 weeks and it was nothing and I ended it tonight.
