 Ryan Phillippe: Torn over divorce from Reese Witherspoon
Ryan Phillippe revealed the reason for the breakdown of his eight years marriage in with Reese Witherspoon, recently in an interview.
Ryan Phillippe says that the reasons for the breakdown with Reese Witherspoon "are far more complicated and far less interesting than it's made out to be".
The 33-year-old actor, Ryan Phillippe termed his divorce after seven years of marriage from Reese Witherspoon in October 2007 as "the darkest, saddest place I had ever been". Ryan and Reese, Hollywood's former "IT" couple, shocked millions of people when they announced they were splitting.
And he has spoken about the reports that his current co-star, Abbie Cornish, the Australian actress who starred in Candy with Heath Ledger and Somersault with Sam Worthington, was the third wheel in his marriage, and one of the possible causes of the divorce. "It was unfair for her to be called the names that she was, because it wasn't about that," he says. "I don't think an outside person can ever cause a divorce. I had difficulties in my relationship, and in my marriage, long before I ever met her".
"I spend a lot of time just holed up in my house in Los Angeles," he says. "I don't really go out because I know it's going to turn into a photo shoot". Ryan Phillippe laments the only reason paparazzi follow him "is because I was married to the highest-paid actress in the world. Even though I'm not with her any longer, there is a certain amount of notoriety that I guess sticks beyond".
But he is happy that he and Witherspoon, 31, "have done a really good job at keeping things peaceable and completely focused on" the children.
Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon have two children together, eight-year-old daughter Ava and three-year-old son Deacon. |
