American actress Reese Witherspoon is renowned as the richest actress in the world, according to Forbes. The $450 million net-worth actress is currently in the headlines after announcing her divorce from her husband, Jim Toth. The couple has been married for 12 years and has finally decided to part ways. Allegedly, the reason for their separation is Witherspoon’s busy schedule.

Money indeed isn’t capable of taking the pain away from a person. This isn’t the first time Witherspoon is going to bear the pain of separation from a partner. Before Toth, the actress was married to Ryan Phillippe and separated from him after nine years of marriage. Despite their differences and reasons to split, Toth and the Legally Blonde star will continue to co-parent their 10-year-old son.

All this doesn’t seem easy for the couple, but their amicable decision must be respected without the other’s intervention. A source shared with a news portal,

“Reese is obviously disappointed and upset. She never saw herself getting another divorce. They love Tennessee, and this is their focus. They will continue to co-parent amicably.”

A relationship needs time and understanding to nurture. But Witherspoon’s relationship with her husband somewhere lacked all this, which later turned out to be the reason for their separation. Reportedly, it was revealed by a source that Withwespoon’s busy work schedule played a major role in the split. Separations are always painful, and it takes time for a person to heal. An insider explained,

“After she was set up with Jim, their relationship moved quickly. Reese was thrilled by his attention and excited to marry him. They are two very different people, though. Reese is headstrong and focused. Although very hard-working, Jim is more laidback.”

There was a time when the two chose each other despite their differences, but today it seems like their differences are the reason for their separation.

As per the reports of an insider, the decision of Witherspoon and Toth’s separation was amicable. The ex-couple shares a platonic bond and is devoted to raising their 10-year-old son Tennessee together. The insider told Page Six,

“There’s no big scandal or drama, just two people who essentially became co-parents and don’t really have any romantic feelings for each other anymore.”

Among the many rumored reasons for the couple’s separation, what’s more crucial is that the decision to divorce was amicable rather than forced and that they continue to be friends. The Wild actress was previously married to Ryan Phillippe. Unfortunately, the marriage didn’t last for a long time, and the couple parted ways in 2006. After Phillippe, the 47-year-old actress was linked up with Jake Gyllenhaal. Eventually, she fell for Toth, and the couple tied the knot in 2011.
