In Hollywood, Zsa Zsa Gabor is considered one of the first celebrities who was famous for being famous. But a new biography about the late Hungarian-born socialite and her famous family, Finding Zsa Zsa: The Gabors Behind the Legend by Sam Staggs, argues that there was more to Zsa Zsa than her numerous husbands, diamonds and sassy quips.
Staggs, a Hollywood biographer and family friend of the Gabor’s, delves into Zsa Zsa’s private life and gives an inside look at some of her most headline-worthy scandals, from the implosion of her marriage to hotelier Conrad Hilton, to her stint in a sanitarium.

The late actress and socialite’s will has been revealed, and according to probate court documents obtained by People, all of her assets have been consolidated into a trust of which von Anhalt, 74, is the sole trustee.

The Hungarian-born socialite and celebrity has died at her Bel Air home after reportedly suffering a heart attack. She was 99.
Gabor was born Sari Gabor in Budapest in February 1917. She won the Miss Hungary beauty pageant at the age of 19 and took off to find fame and fortune in Hollywood.
She found it, appearing without much acclaim in dozens of films such as her 1952 debut Lovely To Look At, Moulin Rouge and Orson Welles’s Touch Of Evil.
There were a few stage roles and there were frequent tongue-in-cheek television appearances as herself, by which time Gabor had recognised that her wit and glamour would become her legacy.
In one of many witticisms, she declared, “I am a marvellous housekeeper. Every time I leave a man, I keep the house.”
She was renowned for frequent and heavily accented pronunciation of the word “darling” and offered this explanation for that term of endearment: “I call everyone ‘darling’ because...

Happy birthday, Zsa Zsa Gabor!
Though recent years have been plagued by health woes and feuding between Gabor's husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, and daughter, Francesca Hilton, the ailing Hollywood legend turns 96 today.
Gabor, a socialite and actress known more for her outrageous personality than film roles, was famous for being famous long before the birth of Paris Hilton (who coincidentally is her great-niece).
The Hungarian-born bombshell is also endlessly quotable, having built an arsenal of quips largely based on marriage and husbands (she should know -- she's had nine).

Los Angeles -- Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband will remain the ailing actress' conservator until at least August and will have to account for her assets, a judge ruled Wednesday.
Fredric von Anhalt has served as his wife's conservator since July after the actress' daughter questioned whether he was providing proper medical care and appropriately managing her finances.
An attorney appointed to represent Gabor's interests wrote in a report that von Anhalt has generally been a good steward of his wife and has complied with terms of a settlement that required strict financial oversight. The report by attorney LeAnne Maillian states it appears von Anhalt had used some of his wife's money to pay his own expenses, but that he has already repaid it.
Von Anhalt's attorney William Remery declined to state how much was repaid.
Gabor, a Hungarian-born sexpot of the 1950s and 1960s, has been in declining health in recent years.

Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband has been named temporary conservator of her estate. A Los Angeles court has appointed Prince Frederic von Anhalt to be in charge of the ailing 95-year-old actress' affairs, ending his bitter battle with her daughter Francesca Hilton. Frederic said: 'I'm the conservator now of my wife, so that's good. She's doing fine.' In March, Francesca - Zsa Zsa's daughter from her second marriage to Conrad Hilton - filed a lawsuit asking for a conservator to oversee her mother's finances and medical care as she didn't feel Frederic was looking after her properly. The order - which is in place for six months - gives Francesca the right to weekly visits, with 24-hour notice required and her...

A judge approved an agreement Wednesday (July 11) between Zsa Zsa Gabor's daughter Constance Francesca Hilton and husband Frederic von Anhalt to make von Anhalt conservator for Zsa Zsa's estate and well-being, reports the AP.
He will continue to make medical decisions about his wife's care, after arguing for years with Constance that he has mismanaged Zsa Zsa's wealth. Hilton requested several months ago to be appointed conservator for Gabor because she was concerned her mother was not being treated properly.
Part of the agreement that leaves von Anhalt as conservator is that Constance's attorney Kenneth Kossoff will receive monthly statements as to the financial situation and be able to review Gabor's medical files.
Gabor, who turned 95 back in February, has been in declining health for years. She was in an automobile accident in 2002 that left her partially paralyzed, and in 2005 and 2007 she suffered strokes. In 2012, she fractured her hip...

Zsa Zsa Gabor is 95 and in extremely poor health, but still clinging to life. Also clinging to Gabor are her husband -- Prince Frederic von Anhalt -- and her daughter -- Constance Francesca Hilton -- who have been feuding about control of Gabor's care and finances for months.
Now they may have a chance at settling their differences out of court when both sides sit down with a retired probate judge in June to attempt to iron out their issues, reports the Associated Press.
Hilton has ask that a conservatorship be created to oversee her mother's medical care and assets, citing evidence that both have been mismanaged by von Anhalt who is obviously opposing the petition. He and Gabor have been married for 25 years and, he says, he's providing the best possible care for his wife.

Lawyers for Zsa Zsa Gabor's warring husband and daughter have asked a judge to delay a hearing into the actress' conservatorship case so they can attempt to settle the matter in mediation.
Constance Francesca Hilton filed documents at Los Angeles Superior Court in March in a bid to become the conservator of her mother's estate, claiming the star's husband Prince Frederic von Anhalt prevents her from visiting the 95 year old at their Beverly Hills home and isn't providing adequate care.
Von Anhalt hit back by filing an official objection earlier last month, insisting Hilton is not a suitable carer for Gabor.
However, they now want to settle the matter out of court, and their lawyers appeared in front of a judge on Wednesday to ask for a conservatorship hearing to be delayed so they can attempt to resolve the issues on their own.
Hilton's attorney Kenneth Kossof said, "Miracles happen in mediation."
Gabor has been bed-bound since breaking her hip in a nasty fall at her home in 2010, and has been in and out of hospital ever since.

Francesca Hilton, the daughter of Zsa Zsa Gabor, is asking a judge to appoint a conservator to oversee her mother's finances and medical care.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Reva Goetz scheduled a hearing for May 2 to consider the request, reports Ktla News.
Hilton is reportedly concerned because Gabor's husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, is keeping her "heavily sedated" and "increasingly isolated."
"My wife doesn't complain," said Von Anhalt in a Tuesday (March 20) news conference. "She says she's in a good condition, she feels good."
Hilton also recently learned that Von Anhalt took out a $700,000 loan on Gabor's $10 million Bel Air mansion and that he hasn't been consistently paying the home's mortgage.
Von Anhalt says the loan was necessary to pay for his wife's medical bills.

"My wife doesn't complain," said Von Anhalt in a Tuesday (March 20) news conference. "She says she's in a good condition, she feels good."
Hilton also recently learned that Von Anhalt took out a $700,000 loan on Gabor's $10 million Bel Air mansion and that he hasn't been consistently paying the home's mortgage.
Von Anhalt says the loan was necessary to pay for his wife's medical bills.

Los Angeles — Zsa Zsa Gabor's only daughter asked a judge on Tuesday to place her mother in a conservatorship that will independently control the ailing glamor queen's medical care and financial needs.
Constance Francesca Hilton claims Gabor's husband, Frederic von Anhalt, has been isolating her 95-year-old mother and leaving her heavily sedated. She also questioned whether her mother's finances are being properly handled by von Anhalt.
"By isolating me from my mother, not only does her current husband deprive her of my love and companionship, but he goes against estate planning documents that appear to reflect her wishes that he not be in sole control of her affairs," Hilton wrote in a declaration accompanying her petition.
Hilton is asking the court to appoint her as Gabor's conservator, although her attorney, Kenneth Kossoff, said they would be willing to have an independent third party handle all oversight duties.

Zsa Zsa Gabor's daughter is petitioning for the ailing actress to be placed under a court-ordered conservatorship.
Constance Francesca Hilton has filed documents at Los Angeles Superior Court requesting the independent management of her mother's medical and financial affairs.
She is asking officials to decide whether Gabor is receiving the best care she can afford and whether she is being isolated or allowed to be with her friends and family.
Hilton is also seeking a ruling on whether her mother's funds are being managed in her best interests.
Gabor is currently being cared for by her husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt. She has been in and out of hospital since breaking her hip in a fall in July 2010.
A spokesman for Hilton's legal team says, "This is not a proceeding about Ms. Hilton or Mr. Frederic von Anhalt... it is a proceeding where Zsa Zsa's best interests are in the forefront.

She swam naked in its pool every morning and entertained Hollywood royalty there. Now the ailing movie star's house is up for sale – exacerbating a bitter family feud
Zsa Zsa Gabor is selling her gated Bel Air mansion, and as you would expect from a Hollywood legend, this is no ordinary listing. The former movie star may be ailing but the anticipated $15m (£9.4m) sale has intensified a long-running family feud and turned into something of a drama.
The decision to sell the property was made after 94-year-old Gabor was re-admitted to hospital in May, following a bout of pneumonia. She returned home this month but the Hungarian-born socialite, actor and star of the chatshow circuit is now barely able to speak and bed-ridden after having her leg amputated earlier this year.

A photograph of Zsa Zsa Gabor sipping champagne in her sickbed has prompted an angry reaction from her only child, who has accused the ailing actress' husband of using the star for self-publicity.
Gabor's husband Prince Frederic von Anhalt released a snap of the pair holding a glass of Veuve Clicquot to celebrate his 68th birthday on Sunday.
The picture shows the actress in seemingly good spirits despite her severe health issues, but her only child, Constance Francesca Hilton, is fuming over the image.
In an angry statement, Hilton - who has previously claimed von Anhalt has banned her from seeing her gravely-ill mother - slams her stepfather for allowing a picture to be released when her formerly glamorous mother is not wearing make-up. She also criticises him for allowing a sick woman to drink alcohol.
Hilton says, "He once again uses my mother to bring publicity to himself. He once again releases photos of my mother in unflattering situations without hair and makeup, two things that were so important to her.
"This time he is feeding her alcohol, which could be detrimental to her condition since she is on numerous medications. It's disgusting and no one is doing anything about it."
Gabor has been in and out of hospital since she broke her hip in a fall last summer. In January, part of her leg was amputated to stop the spread of gangrene and fears for her health mounted in March when she began coughing up blood.

Ailing actress Zsa Zsa Gabor's daughter has slammed the star's husband Prince Frederic Von Anhalt over plans to have a child via a surrogate.
Von Anhalt, 67, revealed on Thursday he is considering becoming a father, saying, "It was always my wife's dream for us to have a child... and even though we won't be using any of her eggs, she would be thrilled to know I'm going through with this."

"We are still trying to get over his wish to have Zsa Zsa's body preserved and displayed. What's next from von Anhalt? Zsa Zsa clones?"
However, Von Anhalt has brushed off Hilton's remarks, responding: "She doesn't know anything. She's not involved in the family, she doesn't know what's going on. Whatever she says, I really don't give a damn."...

Zsa Zsa Gabor appears to be defying death once again after coughing up blood at her Beverly Hills home on Tuesday.
The actress was taken back to hospital for treatment of a possible lung infection, according to her husband Prince Frederic von Anhalt, who feared the worst.
But the 93 year old is refusing to go without a fight - and Edward Lozzi, a spokesman for Gabor's daughter Francesca Hilton, reveals the ailing actress is not in critical condition.
He says, "She's sitting up and awake. She's not on any oxygen or ventilator."
Lozzi and Hilton have been at odds with von Anhalt over his reports to the media about his wife's health ever since she fell and broke her hip at home last summer.
Gabor has been in and out of hospital ever since and in January she had part of her leg amputated to stop the spread of gangrene.
Von Anhalt said Gabor was admitted to UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center in Westwood last week after her blood pressure spiked following the news of the death of her friend Elizabeth Taylor.
Lozzi disputed the story, insisting his client was told that her mother had not been admitted to hospital.
The publicist states Hilton is glad her estranged mother is in hospital again - because she knows she is being cared for there.
Lozzi tells the Los Angeles Times newspaper, "It's the only time Francesca knows her mother is being cared for properly and knows exactly what's happening with her mother."...
