“They’ve been spending less and less time together while she was working.” Reese has been “headstrong and focused” with her projects.
Toth is quite ambitious himself, but the source said that he is more “laid back.”
Recently, Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth have had fewer shared interests. In 2022, Witherspoon started to spend more time in Nashville. She produced the Apple TV singing competition My Kind of Country and flipped a house there for almost double the amount she paid for it. Witherspoon has also been producing movies and shows like Daisy Jones & the Six, and filming season 3 of The Morning Show.
Toth has been on the board of directors at tech company Flowcode since he left CAA for the now defunct streaming service Quibi. A show business source said: “She has her hand in a lot of pots; he prefers less frenzy.”
Announcements
The source went on to say that the pair “worked on” their issues, but decided to split. It “took a long time,” according to the source. “They didn’t come to the decision to divorce easily and hastily. This is so hard for both of them.”
The couple revealed that they were going their separate ways in a joint announcement on March 24th, two days before their 12th anniversary. “It is with a great deal of care and consideration that we have made the difficult decision to divorce,” the statement read. “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.”
