Reese Witherspoon premiered her latest flick, “Four Christmases” last night in Los Angeles looking gorgeous! That dress fit her like a glove and her hair was full of bounce.
She recently gave an interview to Parade Magazine where she opens up about a lot of stuff she usually doesn’t talk about.
She chats about her divorce in 2006 from Ryan Phillippe and her current beau Jake Gylenhaal.
On divorce:
“There are things in my life that are hard to reconcile, like divorce,” she says. “Sometimes it is very difficult to make sense of how it could possibly happen. Laying blame is so easy. I don’t have time for hate or negativity in my life. There’s no room for it. When you make wrong choices, you have to take responsibility for them: ‘What part of this do I own?’”
One this I love about Reese is how she makes it a point to not be like the other women in Hollywood. She wants to be a role model to young women.
“It takes perseverance and determination for any young woman to navigate the movie business,” she says. “It’s deeply offensive when they are objectified, treated like sex toys. It’s so easy to get attention early on in your career when you promote only the sexual side of yourself. It gains you popularity, but it doesn’t mean anything. Five years later, no one knows your name, and you wonder why.”
Does she think she will re-marry again?
“Obviously, I’m not far enough out of being married to think about doing it again. You sort of reconstitute your family. You find a family, with people who come into your life for a reason.
“I definitely still have a capacity to love,” she continues. “Someone said to me once, ‘No matter what breakup you went through or what new love you find—the love you remember, like the love you now value, is yours. Whatever love you once gave to somebody else, it doesn’t go away. Even if it is only remembered love, it belongs to you.’”
