Trashy Divorces

Since Cardi B roared onto the rap scene in 2018 with Invasion of Privacy, she's won all the awards and become one of the most celebrated artists of our day. But the notion of "invasion of privacy" is a little funny in our current era, where stars often seem committed to invading their own privacy by oversharing on social media. Which is our entrée into the tumultuous marriage and (ongoing) divorce between Cardi B and her husband, fellow rapper and Migos alum Offset.

Hello dahlinks! We've made it to the very last of the Glamorous Gabors, and the later years of Zsa Zsa Gabor. This episode follows her final marriage, to a fake prince that Zsa Zsa's daughter described as an "evil queen," the fake prince's legal action against that daughter, a robbery of the fake prince by a lesbian street gang, and of course, Zsa Zsa's Slap Heard Around The World.

The Glamorous Gabors was researched and written by Melanie Shawn, with our deep gratitude.

This week, we turn our attention to the middle - and certainly the best known - sister of our glamorous trio, Zsa Zsa Garbor. In this Part One of her life, we follow the irrepressible Zsa Zsa her through her first marriage - and perhaps an affair with the founder of the Turkish Republic, Kemal Ataturk - as well as her move to the US, where she promptly destroyed her sister Eva's first marriage, for reasons that were never clear to Eva herself. Zsa Zsa likely thought "such is life when you're a Gabor," and after all, Conrad Hilton was waiting to scoop her out of obscurity.

Dahlinks - hold on to your hats for the story of Magda Gabor, the eldest and perhaps the most undercover of the Glamorous Gabor sisters. Magda, continuing the family tradition of being well-versed in the art of falling in love and getting married, also had some nasty breakups. But there's so much more to her story, from her World War II experiences working with the Hungarian Resistance against the Nazi occupiers, to being a significant part of the brains behind her mother's New York jewelry business. She may be lesser known than her sisters, but her story is every bit as fascinating.

The youngest of the Gabor sisters was Eva, and to say that Eva worked for the career that Zsa Zsa sauntered into would be about right. An earnest actor, Eva toiled in relative obscurity for a quarter of a century before landing the role that finally made her a household name: Lisa Douglas, a big-city wife whose husband decides to leave it all behind for the bliss of their very own Green Acres. Through it all, in typical Gabor fashion, Eva married and divorced and married again (and divorced again, and again) and branched out into entrepreneurial endeavors, including Eva Gabor Wigs.

Jolie Gabor, mother of the famous sisters, grew up in Budapest, Hungary, just in time for the tumultuous 20th century to unfold. Her mother's family was in the jewelry business - put a pin in that - and as a girl, Jolie dreamed of a life in the theater. Her parents were having none of it, and forced her into a not overwhelmingly wanted marriage that almost immediately produced three daughters. But rather than give up on her acting dreams, she just transferred her drive for celebrity and notoriety onto those daughters. The rest, as they say, is history.

The Gabor sisters were some of the most iconic cultural figures in the second half of the 20th century, having arrived on our shores from Nazi-occupied Hungary, where they experienced loss and engaged in heroic resistance. Along with their mother, Jolie, sisters Eva, Zsa Zsa, and Magda, stormed the mid-century zeitgeist and lived through extremely complicated family dynamics, as well as complicated romantic entanglements - including, between them all - 23 marriages, 18 divorces, two widowhoods, and two annulments. They were allies and rivals, poly-linguists, artisans, and entrepreneurs. But mostly, they were women possessed of a drive to succeed and an eternal willingness to bend their stories to suit the moment at hand. 

This month, Trashy Divorces is proud to present the lives and loves of The Glamorous Gabors, an eight-episode arc bringing these four amazing women into focus in the 21st century.

The Glamorous Gabors was researched and written by Melanie Shawn, with our deep gratitude.
