Dumb move?

They were going through a complicated divorce that took many years to complete. Once, Burt Reynolds even said that marrying Loni Anderson was a mistake.

While giving an interview back in 2015, the actor said that the marriage “was a really dumb move on my part.”

I should have known that you don’t marry an actress,” the star said at the time.“ It wasn’t lollipops and roses.

Reynolds described more details about their life in his memoir, called But Enough About Me.

Loni Anderson has recently paid tribute to late Burt Reynolds in the private service at Howard-Quattlebaum Funeral Home, which was attended by numerous guests.

Burt was a wonderful director and actor. He was a big part of my life for twelve years and Quinton's father for thirty years. We will miss him and his great laugh.
