But allegedly, Betty and George had a fling back in 1987, when he appeared on an episode of The Golden Girls! Remember when he joked about it when Betty won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2010 SAG Awards?

For years now, Betty has refused to meet Robert Redford, although we all know she could if she really wanted to.

"No, no, no!" Betty exclaimed when asked if she'd finally meet The Horse Whisperer. "That's the bargain — I never want to meet him. I just like to admire him from afar."
"It would be such a disappointment if I met him," she added. "I've taken his name in vain so many times — I would be so embarrassed. He understands."
