Academy Award-winning actress Elizabeth Taylor had four children with three different husbands; one of them was adopted (via Distractify). Those children played with young Mariska Hargitay, herself described by Outsider as coming from "Hollywood royalty." Specifically, Hargitay's mother was actress Jayne Mansfield, and her father was bodybuilder Mickey Hargitay, who was named Mr. Universe in 1955. The couple divorced soon after Hargitay was born in 1964.
Mariska Hargitay was only 3 when her mother died in a vehicle accident with a semi-truck in Louisiana in 1967. She was in the car at the time, asleep in the backseat with her two brothers. Biography reports that though the children sustained injuries, all survived the crash. Hargitay was raised by her father and stepmother, Ellen Siano. "I called her mom," Hargitay told Good Housekeeping in an interview. "She really claimed us."
In a way, Elizabeth Taylor also claimed Hargitay, and she remembered her fondly years later by watching her every show.
