Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson did not wait long to start a family. In September 1988, the newlywed couple adopted a newborn baby boy whom they named Quinton Anderson Reynolds, per The Palm Beach Post. But it wasn’t long into the marriage that Reynolds realized marrying Anderson was a big mistake. In a 2015 interview with People, the actor called the marriage a “really dumb move” and admitted that he should have known better than to “marry an actress.” Not only did Reynolds complain about Anderson’s overspending, but he also said they had a sexless marriage. He also alleged that Anderson had an affair. “I caught her cheating on me,” he claimed. “And so I just… I made the decision to call it off.”

Anderson told another story. In 1995, the sitcom star told SFGate that Reynolds displayed “erratic behavior” during their marriage, and she accused her ex of physically abusing her while taking prescription drugs. “The physical abuse I always blamed on the drugs,” she said, adding that Reynolds once told her to do everyone a “favor” and shoot herself.
