Her life was filled with more drama than a Hollywood movie and now, a month after her death, there has been yet another plot twist.
Elizabeth Taylor was forced to give up a secret love child, it has been claimed today.
The late Hollywood legend gave birth to a baby girl called Norah, according to psychic and self-proclaimed Taylor confidant John Cohan.
Cohan claims that Taylor had been a client of his since the 1960s and told him he could not reveal the secret until after her death.
'She revealed a secret that's haunted her for years,' Cohan told the New York Post Post's Cindy Adams.
'A child out of wedlock. The studio and her mother gave baby Norah away.
'Money was exchanged. Living in Ireland, the child, resenting the mother who gave her up, wanted nothing to do with Elizabeth.
'Having been with three men, Elizabeth was not sure of the father.
'Elizabeth, guilt-ridden about this always told me, "Say nothing until I'm gone."'

Adams, a well-known gossip columnist, admitted she couldn't confirm Cohan's claim, but added: 'I tell it because one can't ignore the story in case there's some truth.'
Taylor, who died in March at the age of 79, was famously married seven times and had four children.
She had two sons Christopher , 55, and Michael , 57, with her her second husband, British actor Michael Wilding.
She had a daughter, Liza, 53, with her third husband, film producer Michael Todd.

Taylor began adopting a two-year-old girl from Germany, Maria, now 49, while married to fourth husband Eddie Fisher however it was not processed until after they divorced. Her fifth husband Richard Burton later adopted both of her daughters.
The bulk of her fortune will go to her four children with the proceeds of her best-selling perfumes being donated to her favourite Aids charities.
The Daily Mail revealed on Sunday that her eight and final husband, Larry Fortensky, will get £500,000 from her will.
He says the money will enable him to buy a new home.
