private money." And you know, he was right. They didn't have to worry
from that point forward. [Reporter] Here she is

Appearances are important.
00:00:03.211 --> 00:00:06.464
They were paramount
to the Reagans,
00:00:06.506 --> 00:00:09.258
and they lived a moneyed life.
00:00:09.003 --> 00:00:13.221
But she really got concerned
and she called Holmes Tuttle,
00:00:13.262 --> 00:00:17.058
and she cried several
times and said,
00:00:17.001 --> 00:00:19.394
"Ronnie and I can't
afford to do this."
00:00:19.435 --> 00:00:22.023
And Holmes Tuttle
reassured her and said,
00:00:22.271 --> 00:00:25.525
"Don't worry, there's
private money."
00:00:25.566 --> 00:00:27.652

The only thing she loves
better than picking them out
00:00:39.205 --> 00:00:40.665
is wearing them.
00:00:40.707 --> 00:00:41.499
That's pretty,
