Veteran actress Sally Field recently shared a candid behind-the-scenes story from her decades-long career, revealing what she described as her least enjoyable on-screen kiss during a television appearance.
Speaking on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen hosted by Andy Cohen, Field was asked to reflect on her experiences working closely with various co-stars in romantic roles. After a brief pause and some laughter, she admitted that one particular on-screen kiss stood out to her for being especially uncomfortable.
To the surprise of many viewers, Field named actor Burt Reynolds, with whom she also shared a real-life relationship and co-starred in the popular film Smokey and the Bandit. The revelation drew immediate reaction from the host, who pointed out the added irony that the two were romantically involved at the time.
Field’s comments quickly circulated online, with fans revisiting the long and complicated history between the two actors.

The discussion added another layer to Field’s reputation for being open and reflective about her career, which spans film, television, and stage work over several decades.
