She has gone through two divorces and a number of years since she established herself in show business. Steven Craig, Field’s high school lover, and she were united in marriage for the first time in 1968. After seven years of marriage, the former couple welcomed two boys, Peter and Eli, before divorcing in 1975.
The Hollywood celebrity then started a relationship with Burt Reynolds, an actor she compared to her stepfather. She later had a son named Samuel with film producer Alan Greisman after their 1984 second marriage. But in 1994, they broke up.
Both Field’s romantic life and professional life were on hold at the time. According to a friend, “She wasn’t getting any acting offers that were very substantial, and she pretty much gave up on the dating scene.”
But ultimately, things improved as she received an Oscar nomination for her performance as Mary Todd Lincoln in the film “Lincoln,” and went on to land a number of other TV and film parts. The friend also revealed more about how she feels about romance:
Sally is content with her life as it is. It’s okay that she doesn’t see herself getting married again.
According to the insider, the mother of three spends much of her time with her brother Richard and Hollywood friends, including Tom Hanks, and her brood and grandkids.
After becoming famous as a young ingenue, Field chose a down-to-earth path of natural aging. In a March 2016 interview, she addressed her aging process and said she had embraced it:
“I’m an old woman. 70 is old, and that’s OK.”
Although there are some things she doesn’t like about growing old, which include her neck, she has made peace with that. When she was 63 in 2009, she revealed she was proud to have aged naturally without having plastic surgery:
“I see myself on TV, and I say, ‘Oh, I wish that weren’t happening to my neck. And your face is falling down, and your eyes are so puffy.”
But Field would remember that there were some women who she thought were gorgeous when they were young but had gone under the knife and she had a change of heart.
“Now I think, ‘Oh dear, don’t do that!’ And it seems so terribly disrespectful to who they are now,” said the two-time Academy Award winner.
