Magda's exact birth date is not known. Some sources have citied it as June 11, 1915 or June 11, 1914. Other sources have cited July 1, 1914 and July 10, 1915.[citation needed] No one believes the years of 1918 or 1919 that she assigned herself, which would have made her younger than her younger sisters, Zsa Zsa Gabor and the late Eva Gabor.
Magda was married six times, but bore no children.
