Ryan Phillippe Posts Affectionate Throwback to His Ex-Wife, Reese Witherspoon: ‘We Were Hot’

Is Ryan Phillippe having sex with his ex-wife, Reese Witherspoon?

On May 27, the 49-year-old actor took us back to 2001 by posting a photo taken from a Blonde’s Revenge party he attended with Witherspoon. The former couple met on the set of Cruel intentions in 1997 and married in 1999. They separated in 2006 and share two children: Ava, 24, and Deacon, 20.

Today, Philippe remembers the good old days. “We were hot and drenched in late 90s angst,” he captioned the snap on his Instagram Story, directly tagging his ex. Parenthetically, he described that era as “a time that was so much cooler than today.” For her part, Witherspoon has not yet responded to the message… at least on social media.

So, was this post a blatant attempt at flirting or was Phillippe simply stating facts? The former couple looked particularly striking in the photo, with Witherspoon wearing a chic chin-length bob and a body-hugging striped dress while Phillippe looked moody with her short mohawk and aviator sunglasses. Then again, it’s a little difficult to express “late 90s angst” in a sleeveless striped polo shirt… In his defense, they were in the Hamptons!

Five years after her first divorce, Reese Witherspoon married Hollywood producer Jim Toth, with whom she shares an 11-year-old son. However, The morning show The star is currently single, at least as far as the public is concerned.

Witherspoon and Toth announced their own separation in a joint statement in March 2023. “It is with great care and consideration that we have made the difficult decision to divorce,” they wrote in the since-deleted Instagram post. We have had so many wonderful years together and we move forward with deep love, kindness and mutual respect for all we have created together. »
