Reese Witherspoon and her husband have announced a divorce just two days before their 12th wedding anniversary.
She shared their last family picture on January 1, 2023.
A source has revealed possible reasons for the divorce, which began 18 months before the actress shared the statement.
Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth have mutually decided to end their marriage after eleven years. Following news of their divorce, an insider said the pair are “best of friends.”
The source further stated that Witherspoon and Toth’s decision to dissolve their union was solely amiable as they are both involved parents to their child.
The pair are family-orientated and intend to make the divorce process less painful for everyone involved. Toth and Witherspoon announced their divorce on March 24, 2023, via an Instagram post writing:
“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. We have enjoyed so many wonderful years together and are moving forward with deep love, kindness,, and mutual respect for everything we have created together.”
Their focus now is their son Tennessee and Witherspoon’s two older kids, daughter Ava and son Deacon – whom she shares with her former spouse, actor Ryan Phillippe.
The mother of three and Toth first announced their engagement in December 2010 and later walked down the aisle on March 26, 2011.
The now-estranged couple’s last family social upload was on January 1, 2023. Witherspoon shared a picture of her and Toth with their son posing at the beach during sunset while facing away from the camera.
“Welcoming 2023! Let the sun shine in!” the Academy Award-winning actress and producer captioned the Instagram post.
Witherspoon and Toth marked their 11th wedding anniversary in March 2022, and she commemorated their special day with a sweet tribute online.
The movie star posted a gallery of photos of the pair from throughout the years alongside a caption that read: “Happy Anniversary JT!! 11 years of adventures, love, and laughter. I feel so lucky to share this wonderful life with you.”
The two celebrated Valentine’s Day a month before as Witherspoon shared how they marked the day while wishing her spouse a happy Valentine’s Day.
She penned, “Love my Valentine” on social media while sharing a snapshot of the arrangement of red roses and chocolates, which Toth surprised her with.

Witherspoon and the talent agent’s divorce news came two days before their 12th wedding anniversary. A friend and colleague of the pair, who has worked closely with them for the past ten years, revealed the move is not as surprising to those close to them.
The insider mentioned that despite Toth and the award-winning actress having amassed great success with their joint business ventures, including selling their production company Hello Sunshine for nearly $1 billion in 2021, they had developed different goals in life.
