Witherspoon was born in New Orleans and grew up in Nashville. Over the years, while she has spent much of her time in California because her Hollywood career, she has honoured her Southern upbringing—most notably in her 2002 rom-com Sweet Home Alabama, and in her clothing line Draper James, inspired by Southern style.
Recently, she has also been spending time in Nashville, where she and ex Jim Toth have a home, and where they’ve raised their 10-year-old son, Tennessee. Witherspoon also shares daughter Ava Elizabeth Phillippe, 23, and son Deacon Reese Phillippe, 19, with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe.
Witherspoon and Hollywood talent agent Toth announced their separation this March, after nearly 12 years of marriage. And in April, the actress filed for divorce in Nashville, citing irreconcilable differences.
“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,” Witherspoon and Toth wrote in a statement shared on Instagram after their breakup. “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.”
