Award season has begun, and Sally Field describes a bittersweet Oscar memory of her own.

In an interview for an upcoming book called “50 Oscar Nights,” Sally shared that, when she won her first Academy Award in 1980, her then-boyfriend, Burt Reynolds, refused to attend the awards with her.

Sally explained, “When the Oscars came around, he really was not a nice guy around me then, and was not going to go with me.” Field went on to say that he was “jealous of her stardom.”
