An Unconventional Romance
An enduring relationship spanning 50 years, Diane von Furstenberg and Barry Diller’s timeless partnership is considered a great but unconventional love story. Von Furstenberg shares two children with her first husband, Prince Egon von Furstenberg of Hungary, to whom she was married from 1969 to 1983. In Diller’s 2025 memoir Who Knew: My Story, the media tycoon ends years of speculation about his sexuality and marriage to the iconic clothing designer by coming out as gay.
“Yes, I also liked guys,” he writes, “but that was not a conflict with my love for Diane.”
He further explains that his sexuality was never a secret in his social circle, writing, “I wasn’t ever lying. I never pretended anything. I never hid. People in my social circle knew about my life both with men and with Diane. The only thing I didn’t do was make a declaration. I chose not to for a lot of complicated reasons.”
In response to her husband’s public revelation, von Furstenberg said the news “doesn’t change anything,” while also noting Diller has always been open with her about his sexuality.
Fifty years later, the couple is stronger than ever in a relationship defined by their longstanding love for one another.
