Reese faced with fight for children - May 18 2007
Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon is facing a custody battle for her children as estranged husband Ryan Phillippe filed for joint custody this week.

Witherspoon filed for divorce on November 8, citing "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split, and she asked for physical custody of the couple’s two children -- seven-year-old Ava and three-year-old Deacon.

In the Superior Court divorce petition, Witherspoon, 31, asked for visitation for Phillippe, 32, and "exclusive use of the family residence".

In a response filed on Tuesday, Phillippe also cited irreconcilable differences but asked for joint legal custody and physical custody of the children as well as visitation granted "to both parties, equally allocated".

Phillippe’s petition was first reported by CelebTV.com.

Witherspoon publicist Nancy Ryder was not available for comment.

The documents filed with the court in November and this week do not list separate or community property, saying the nature of the assets has yet to be determined.

Witherspoon’s petition requested that the court not grant any spousal support to Phillippe. There was no request for support in Phillippe’s petition.

The couple, who co-starred in the 1999 release Cruel Intentions, married that year.

Last year, Witherspoon won an Academy Award for her role as June Carter Cash in 2005’s Walk the Line. Phillippe co-starred in the best-picture Oscar winner, Crash, and starred in Clint Eastwood’s Flags of Our Fathers.

Has Reese found Mr Right? - April 13 2007
Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are apparently the hottest young couple in Hollywood right now - and friends think it might be for keeps.

A pal told People magazine the pair - who have been spotted hanging out since they finished work on their CIA thriller Rendition - are "super together".

"This thing is for real," the source added.

A source tells the mag that Reese and Jake didn’t share much screen time in Rendition but got friendly when they returned to Los Angeles for reshoots.

"Things slowly progressed," said a friend of Reese’s. "But it was never something she thought would happen from the start. She just kind of developed this little crush over time."

Jake is the first person the Oscar-winner has been linked to since she split from hubby Ryan Phillippe a few months ago.

In the past, Jake has been linked to Spider-Man star Kirsten Dunst as well as Natalie Portman.

Reese and Jake getting cosy? - April 6 2007
Hollywood’s single men will be disappointed to hear that Reese Witherspoon may already be off the market - having been spotted spending some quality time with her latest co-star, Jake Gyllenhaal.

The 31-year-old Oscar-winner, who split from her husband Ryan Phillippe five months ago, has been spotted hanging out with Jake since the pair finished work on their forthcoming CIA thriller, Rendition.

Despite going to great lengths to avoid being snapped together, the duo were spotted on March 23 dining with two other couples at LA hotspot Il Sole.

"They were cuddling," a witness told People magazine. "It looked very playful."

A source close to the actor also told the magazine: "In the last month, they’ve been spending a lot more time together. Jake really likes her and isn’t at all concerned that she has two kids."
