On April 1, Witherspoon filed for divorce. According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, she listed "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split.

The documents also revealed that the actress had a prenup in place, and that Witherspoon asked the court to designate her and the former CAA agent as joint custodians of their son.

In her August 2023 cover story for Harper's BAZAAR, Witherspoon addressed how she's feeling amid her divorce.

"It’s a vulnerable time for me," said the Hello Sunshine founder. "I think about how many other people are going through this experience. I don't feel isolated at all. I feel very connected."
