One of the most heartfelt revelations Field has shared in recent years involves her relationship with\u00a0Robin Williams<\/strong>. The two starred together in the beloved family comedy\u00a0\u201cMrs. Doubtfire\u201d (1993)<\/strong>, where their on-screen chemistry felt almost too real to be just acting.<\/p>\n

Field admits her feelings for Williams were \u201ccomplicated,\u201d saying:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI really loved him\u2014but it wasn\u2019t a romance. It was something more layered than that.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She describes Williams as a whirlwind of humor and brilliance, able to make the entire set erupt in laughter before suddenly revealing a deep, emotional vulnerability.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cHe could be exhausting in the best way,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0she said.
\u201cAnd then he\u2019d say something so tender it would break your heart.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Field also sensed the pain Williams carried beneath his quick wit:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI could see the sadness, even when he was making everyone laugh. It was like a shadow that never left him.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Now, she admits she regrets not reaching out more\u2014wishing she had told him how truly loved he was before he passed away in 2014.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI miss him terribly. Sometimes I wonder if he ever really knew how cherished he was.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Lessons She Carries Today<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Field says her memories of Williams serve as a reminder of the delicate balance between joy and sorrow that many people\u2014including performers\u2014carry within them.<\/p>\n

At 78, she embraces honesty more than ever.
By speaking openly about Williams, she hopes others will learn to express their feelings before time runs out.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m grateful I knew him the way I did,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0she says.
\u201cHe wasn\u2019t just a genius. He was a deeply human soul.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
