Field’s attendance of Reynolds’ funeral comes on the heels of several shocking confessions she made about her former love in her new book, In Pieces. The actress, 71, admitted she “dispensed” prescription pills to Reynolds on a regular basis when he was in pain.
As Radar readers know, the Hollywood icon lost 40 lbs in the 1980s, triggering a rumor that he was suffering from AIDS. In his memoir, But Enough About Me, Reynolds said his rapid health decline was a result of temporomandibular disorder, also known as TMD or TMJ, which affects the joint connecting the jaw and the skull.
The famous exes met after they were both cast in The Smokey and the Bandit in the late 1970s.

Field also revealed secret details about Reynolds’ sad childhood, including how the actor never met the expectations of his strict father.
Despite their rocky romance, Reynolds confessed in 2017 on TODAY that Field was the one woman who got away. He also referred to Field as the love of his life.
