The man: British Actor Peter Sellers, 47, whom Liza had been visiting for a week or so on the set of his new film Soft Beds and Hard Battles. "I suppose we shall live in London now," Liza added, declining to say whether they would get married. One hitch, of course, is that Sellers is currently wed.
