The Bible says nothing about the Magdalene washing the feet of Jesus. That was a rumor started by Pope Gregory I, that confuse Mary Magdalene (of whom seven demons had been expelled ") with the" sin "of women in Luke's account of the washing of the feet.
The account details differ in each washing Gospel. In some, their feet are washed, in other head. Some use oil, others use the tears of women. Judas complains, or is Simon the Pharisee, or the other apostles? John says it was Mary, the sister of Martha and Lazarus, who did the washing. Or did a lot or the details are not important. But no mention of Madeleine in the scene.

N did not.
She does not exist, Jesus did not exist as the Bible is just a piece of fiction that a few million weak-minded people interpret as fact.

That Mary was a girl one.
There are three Marys in Jesus' life.
His Mother
Magdalena
And the woman who washes his feet. [Mary of Bethany, sister of Lazarus]

Yes, he washed his feet with her tears of repentance loving, dried them with her hair, which means the act of delivery of its "beauty" to one who saw it as more beautiful. And then she anointed his feet with expensive perfume. This last act showed his full confidence and devotion to serve and follow him. He declared his love and deep gratitude to him for these things.

That's what he says. Personally I think it is a metaphor for something else.
