Since ending her second marriage, which Witherspoon raved about in its early stages, the actress is said to be transitioning well into her single life again.

Why Is Reese Witherspoon Feeling Better after Announcing Her Divorce?

Witherspoon and Toth announced their divorce in a joint statement, which read, "We have some personal news to share. It is with a great deal of care and consideration that we have made the difficult decision to divorce." The divorce came as a shock, but a close source clarified that the decision was not an easy one.

The source said, "The divorce decision was not easy for her. It was rough to reach the decision and to announce it." However, since breaking the news to the public, the "Legally Blonde" is said to be doing much better.

While the decision to end her marriage was heartbreaking, Witherspoon has no regrets; she is mainly focusing on her children.

The actress shares her 10-year-old son Tenessee James with Toth. She also has two children with her former husband, Ryan Phillippe Ava Elizabeth, 23, and son Deacon Reese, 19.

As the mother of three navigates her new single life, she's focused on her support system, "She has a big group of loyal friends that she leans on," said a close source.

When it comes to her relationship between her and Toth, a close source confirmed that the two are on good terms, "Things between Witherspoon and Toth are reportedly on good terms," "There is no drama with Jim. They co-parent, and this is the focus."

Although Witherspoon shared the news with her fans, she acknowledged that divorce proceedings are never easy, and she would still appreciate privacy as she navigates these "extremely personal" issues.

Fans might have been shocked about the break-up news, but the marriage had reportedly already begun its downward spiral in the past two years.

How Did Reese Witherspoon's Marriage Go Wrong?

According to reports, the downfall of Witherspoon and Toth's marriage started in 2021. The couple had cut a massive cheque after the actress' production company, Hello Sunshine, was bought by Candle Media.

The unimaginable amount of money from that deal reportedly started to expose the cracks in their marriage, and soon the couple realized they wanted a life apart from one another.

Close sources stated that money fueled everything and changed some of the core things the couple used to agree on. In no time, it became clear that the only common ground they could find was about their son.

The one thing the former couple was willing to be dedicated to was their co-parenting relationship. Sources also revealed that most of the changes came from Toth's side. "He just isn't the guy Reese married and had a son with," remarked the close source.

The sources said everything from his personality and attitude toward life changed after he left his former job. Toth worked as an executive at Quibi but became an independent investor and advisor.

He provided his services at Hello Sunshine and was able to cut a deal that is said to be one of his most significant ones. However, dealing with that much money made the couple reevaluate their marriage.

But, the millions that Toth was able to make through his independency as an agent and advisor was reportedly what he had always wanted.

But the success came with a few changes. The close source said some of Toth's differences were also physical, which they referred to as a "mid-life crisis" and pointed out his new tattoos and stacked jewelry.

Therefore, the reason behind their divorce reportedly grew from the immense wealth they gained after their company's acquisition, but Witherspoon had allegedly handled everything well, especially co-parenting.

Since it was not the first time the actress had to transition from a romantic relationship to a co-parenting one, she reportedly did not mind going through the process again for her son, Tennessee.

However, sources clarified that their differences did not lead to any drama. It was just two people that realized they were not in love anymore.
