She wanted to jump his “Bones.”
Betty White told actor David Boreanaz she wanted to “f–k” him the first time they met on the set of the long-running show “Bones.”
Boreanaz, 56, recalled White arriving to film in 2015 and graciously saying hello to everybody on set.
“Emily [Deschanel] and I were waiting for her. When she arrived, she greeted us warmly, saying, ‘Great to see you. Oh, great to see you. You’re so kind. You look so lovely,’” he recounted during the Bones: 20th Anniversary Retrospective panel at the first Televerse Festival on Saturday, as reported by People.
Boreanaz said that the Emmy winner went up to Deschanel and complimented her good looks before turning to him to spew an obscene statement.
“She looks at me, she goes, ‘Holy s–t, I want to f–k you. I want to f–k you!’” Boreanaz recalled, adding, “I just started laughing.”
Deschanel had no memory of the interaction between her co-star and the late “Golden Girls” star, but called it “amazing.”
Their co-star Tamara Taylor referred to White as a “legendary potty mouth,” while T. J. Thyne dubbed White “a little troublemaker.”
The panel, moderated by People reporter Sean Mandell, also featured Hart Hanson, Michaela Conlin and Eric Millegan.
White appeared as Dr. Beth Mayer in Season 11 of the show in 2015. She reprised her role two years later for the series’ 12th season.
Throughout the years, White became well-known for her candid remarks and was once even accused by Sally Struthers of making a derogatory comment about her weight in front of others while they were filming a game show.
The beloved “Mary Tyler Moore Show” star died on Dec. 31, 2021 at the age of 99. She was less than three weeks away from her 100th birthday.
“Even though Betty was about to be 100, I thought she would live forever,” her agent and close friend, Jeff Witjas, said in a statement at the time.
“I will deeply miss her, and so will the many animals she adored,” Witjas shared. “I feel Betty was never afraid of passing because she always wished to reunite with her beloved husband, Allen Ludden. She believed they would be together once more.”
Witjas also shared that the beloved TV icon died of natural causes “peacefully in her sleep at her home.”
White suffered a stroke on Christmas Day — just six days before her death.
