Burt Reynolds

Who would have known that footballer Burt Reynolds had a knack for acting? After retiring from football due to a car accident, he pursued being an actor. Burt made his film debut in Angel Baby and then rose to fame after appearing in the film Deliverance. His career stalled but he made a comeback in the ‘90s when he filmed Boogie Nights. Reynolds became a hot topic in Hollywood, and then he met his lifelong love, Sally Field. Reynolds and Sally Field dated throughout the 1970s.

In 1988, Reynolds married Loni Anderson, and in the next five years, their luxury consumption made headlines. They divorced in 1993. He also made headlines for financial loss after his second divorce and lavish expenditures. In 2018, Burt was able to film Defining Moments before dying of a heart attack. Hopefully, he had health insurance to help his family.
