Duston Hoffman is looking back at moments from his youth while promoting his new memoir, Look at Me, and recalls an affair he had with a married woman that almost went sideways.
The Meet the Fockers actor appeared on the “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” podcast on Monday to discuss his memoir and asked the comedian if he’s ever had a “gun pointed at him.” While O’Brien answered “no,” Hoffman recounted a story that had him terrified.
Hoffman doesn’t reveal exactly what age this story took place at, but it was well before he became a notable Hollywood actor. At the time, he was having an “affair with a married woman,” and she assumed her husband would stay asleep once he went to bed. A young Hoffman was then “invited to come over after he went to sleep.”
As it turned out, the man wasn’t asleep as Hoffman and the woman were having a “festival of sorts.” The husband waled in with a gun and “pointed” it at the future actor and told him to get out of his house.
“When you have a gun pointed at you — first of all, that hole is much bigger than the actual hole — you realize how, any second, he’s gonna pull that trigger,” Hoffman continued. “His finger is on the trigger and you think, any second. You realize, that’s it. I’m gonna die. You will do anything to avoid getting killed.”
It’s safe to say that Hoffman heeded the angry husband’s warning and likely never saw the woman again. When it comes to the actor’s love life, he married actor Anne Bryne in 1969, adopted her children from a previous marriage and had a child of their own together.
The couple divorced in 1980, and Hoffman began dating Lisa Gottsegen, whom he had known growing up. They had four children together and are still married. In 2017, the Hook actor gave some rare insight into his marriage and said he and his wife are “more in love” than ever before.
His wife also commented that they “work hard” on their marriage, and she always knew she’d be with the actor, whom she calls “Dusty.”
