On March 24, the actress and her talent agency announced their divorce through Instagram, stating that they took the ‘tough choice to split’ with ‘a great deal of care and consideration.’ The couple also stated that they are concentrating on their family, including their 10-year-old son Tennesee James, through their divorce and requested privacy.

Witherspoon and Toth had ignited dating speculations after being seen eating dinner together in Santa Monica in February 2010. By December they were engaged.

Before their divorce, the couple kept their relationship fairly low-key.

Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth married in a private ceremony in Ojai, California, in March 2011. Tennessee James, their 10-year-old son, is their only child. Reese Witherspoon also has two children with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe: Ava, 23, and Deacon, 19.

‘There's no great controversy or drama, just two people who have effectively become co-parents and don't really have any love feelings for each other anymore,’ a source said after the actress and her talent agency broke the news on Friday.

'There's no major controversy or drama, just two people who effectively became co-parents and don't really have any love feelings for each other longer,' said a source after the actress and talent agency broke the news.

A second source stated that the couple has not yet filed for divorce and that they ‘will continue to work together.’

'Reese enjoyed the idea that Toth was simply a strong, trustworthy, and stable person,' according to an insider, 'which was refreshing after years of trash with her first husband, Ryan Phillippe.'

Witherspoon married her Cruel Intentions co-star in 1999, when she was 23 years old and already pregnant with their first child.

They divorced in 2008 after they separated in 2006.

Despite a few hiccups, which they both blame on being so young when they decided to marry and create a family, the exes are now able to co-parent as friends.
