Zsa Zsa Gabor had no leg, and no clue. The bedridden Hollywood icon — whose right leg was amputated above the knee last year — was never told about the surgery, her husband, Prince Frederic von Anhalt, admits. “It took over a half a year” for Gabor, 95, to make the gruesome discovery on her own, the actress’ ninth husband told The Post at a fund-raiser for the Brent Shapiro Foundation in Los Angeles. “She found out about it when she told me to sit her up, and she saw it. She couldn’t feel it because [one] hand is paralyzed and [one] hand was too short to go on it . . . Finally, a half-year later she said, ‘There is something missing.’ ” That isn’t the only secret her husband of 26 years has kept. Von Anhalt — accused by his daughter-in-law Francesca Hilton of keeping the actress “increasingly isolated” — continued, “She doesn’t even know she gets food through the tube. It will only upset her. She was so glamorous always, and she is so vain.” He also admits of the death of her ...

After 12 years of being part of the EPE team, the time has unfortunately come for my family and I to venture out and do some other things. When I first arrived here at Graceland, I was (who isn’t?) an Elvis fan but had no idea what the word “fan” really meant. I will always be appreciative of those of you who were here back then and taught me the meaning of the word. Through the years, our numbers have grown as Elvis fans began using social networks to celebrate, discuss, share, and introduce others to Elvis’ legacy. From the Elvis Presley fan clubs to the Elvis Insiders and Facebook “fans,” it’s been an honor to get to be part of something so fun and exciting. While I will no longer be an official part of the incredible group of professionals who manage Graceland and make certain Elvis music and movies will be around for generations to come, I will now join all of you - Elvis fans who get to enjoy Elvis’ music, movies, cruises, special events, Elvis Radio and Graceland. We all h...
