Post divorce, Ryan Phillippe has now finally learnt a lesson that we do have just ‘One Life to Live’. Overcoming separation from ex-wife and love, Reese Witherspoon, he is now trying to forget the past and live up his life.
The split from wife of seven long years had left him devastated and many a times he thought of ending his life. He opened up as he said:
After the divorce, I was a physical wreck. I wanted to dieI was ready to kill myself. I was not taking care of myself at all. I would wake up and cry and vomit.
The couple wedded after two years of courtship in 1999. They were blessed with a daughter Ava and son Deacon. All seemed to be going on well, till last year when Witherspoon filed for a divorce and demanded joint legal custody and sole physical custody of the kids. They both were granted divorce on October 2007 and Ryan was given the physical custody of the children.
Ryan feels life is now equally better with kids and added:
Now, it’s easy.When I was younger, I didn’t have enough to cry about. But since I’ve had kids, I feel my work has become better, because my life is fuller and more complicated, and I’ve experienced so many highs and lows.
Ryan’s latest film was Chaos and now he will be seen in Kimberly Peirce’s Stop Loss with Australian actress Abbie Cornish.
