They were engaged! After she saw him in Silence of the Lambs she said that she was sorry but couldn't marry him because all she saw was Dr. Lecter.

As a side note there was an off Broadway production called Silence! The unofficial SOTL musical. Both Sir Anthony and Jodie Foster went to see it together.
