Michael Wilding

American noted family and actor, the son of Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Wilding. He is most noted for his roles in the soap operas "One Life To Live" and "The Guiding Light." In 1985, he also played Jesus in the NBC mini-series "A.D," and, in 1982, began doing little theater. His childhood and early career were quite bumpy. Low-key and sensitive, he was a poor student as a kid, moving and changing schools often. An active member of the drug culture, he was sent to a boarding school in Switzerland. During the mid 70s, he lived on a farm commune in Wales, playing sax with a five member rock group. Wilding was first married at age 17 for two years, to Beth Clutter, with one child, Leyla. It lasted for two years. In 1975 he had another child, Naomi, with his mate in the commune. In 1982 he and actress Brooke Palance married. They met at a friends house and married a year later, deeply in love. Link to Elizabeth Taylor: Marriages, relationships, and children Read less
