The Celebrity Truth

In a new interview with Parade magazine, Reese Witherspoon opens up about her divorce with Ryan Phillippe and why she hates the tabloids, saying they are “the biggest detriment of my life.”

Witherspoon reveals in this Sunday’s (November 23) issue of Parade, “There are things in my life that are hard to reconcile, like divorce. 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,” she continues.  “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?’ I struggle to figure out what made me make those choices. All I can hope for is that I’ve learned something from it and won’t make the same choices again.”

Witherspoon also discusses being under the constant spotlight of the tabloids saying, “The biggest detriment of my life is tabloid fame. It removes me from people.

“When I first meet someone, it is so hard for me to overcome everything they’ve read about me. It’s not fair. It’s difficult, because I’m the kind of person who just wants to hug people.”
