Reese Witherspoon and her husband Jim Toth announced their divorce on Saturday, March 25 (Philippine time)—a day before their supposed 12th-year anniversary. 

"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," the former couple said in a joint statement posted on the actress' Instagram page.

"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," they added, sharing that their top priorities now are their son Tennessee James and their entire family as they "navigate this next chapter."

"These matters are never easy and are extremely personal. We truly appreciate everyone's respect for our family's privacy at this time."

According to a report by PEOPLE, an insider said they will follow a co-parenting setup after their decision to call it quits.

The reason for their divorce remains unknown, but there have been speculations that it was due to the actress’s busy schedule or that their relationship has turned platonic.

“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,” a source told entertainment portal Page Six.

Reese tied the knot with Jim in March 2011. She was previously married to Ryan Philippe, with whom she shares two children Ava and Deacon.
