And that’s all I can say is just, I wish Jodie well, and I hope she has a good life.” Hinckley infamously shot President Ronald Reagan outside of the Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., on March 30, 1981. But I was believing those things at the time, so the best outcome would have been a union with Jodie Foster.”
