Barbara Walters, the renowned journalist, is most widely known for her tell-all interviews with celebrities and politicians, and for later creating the talk show The View." However, in the new documentary, "Barbara Walters: Tell Me Everything," friends and colleagues get candid about her rather exciting personal life.
Attracted to Power and Money
Her pal Cindy Adams also said "she liked the possibility of sex" and that "she liked men". Barbara Walters was married three times and divorced four times, and once said she was "bad at marriage". Despite never believing she was pretty, she had a wit and charisma that "should have been studied," according to her friend, ABC News producer David Sloan.
High-Profile Relationships
Barbara Walters had numerous high-profile relationships, including an affair with married Senator Edward W. Brooke III had to keep their relationship a secret because he was Black (interracial dating wasn't widely accepted at the time) and married. She also had romances with Virginia senator John Warner (after his marriage to Elizabeth Taylor), former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan, and Massachusetts senator Edward W. Brooke III.
Marriages and Divorces
Walters had three ex-husbands and four divorces. She was married to her first husband, Robert Katz, from 1955 to 1957, before marrying theater producer Lee Guber from 1963 to 1976. The two shared a daughter, Jackie. She later married and divorced TV producer Merv Adelson twice between 1981 and 1992.
Barbara Walters was also no stranger to marriage. In the film, she can be heard fretting that she was "bad at marriage," but her longtime friend, former NBC correspondent Cynthia McFadden, says that she was simply too busy to be able to give much to her personal relationships.
