What did Sally Field say about Burt Reynolds death?

After Burt Reynolds’ death, his former lover, Sally Fields shared a few words;

“He was a hugely important part of my life, but for a very short period of my life. I really didn’t speak to him for the last 30 years of his life. I would feel him kind of reach out to me via the press. It was something that he would do even when we were dating. He would speak to me about things that he could call me on the phone about. He would do the TODAY show and  say, ‘I need to tell Sally…’ Well OK! He will always be in my heart and in my history. I think at least he’s not hurting right now,” she said.
