Reese Witherspoon sparkles on the October cover of Marie Claire magazine. The Oscar winner opens up about her divorce from Ryan Phillippe and why she is so much less stressed being married to new hubby Jim Toth.
"I was hard on myself when I got divorced," Reese says in the October issue of Marie Claire about ending her relationship with the father of her two children. "And until I got remarried, I don't think I realized how stressed I was. I feel so much relief."
Reese shares that being a single parent — she has two children Ava, and Deacon — was a lot harder than she anticipated.
"I don't think I realized how stressed I was being a single parent. It was really, really stressful. It's not easy on anybody," she says.
She also gushes on her new hubby, Jim, a CAA agent.
"I got lucky. I did. I got very lucky, and he's so wonderful with the children," she says. "I'm very blessed."
