Barbara Walters dated and was married to several notable men throughout her life. She was married three times: first to Robert Henry Katz (1955-1957, annulled), then to theater producer Lee Guber (1963-1976), with whom she adopted a daughter, and finally to television producer Merv Adelson, whom she married twice (1981-1984 and 1986-1992). In addition to her marriages, she had a notable affair in the 1970s with then-Senator Edward Brooke, which she disclosed in her 2008 memoir. Walters also dated other prominent figures such as lawyer Roy Cohn, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, former Senator John Warner, and was close with Henry Kissinger. She expressed regret for never dating Clint Eastwood despite their flirtatious interaction during an interview.
