Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe split because of the pressures of balancing their careers and family responsibilities, according to the actress. Witherspoon doesn’t blame the actor – but hints they both neglected each other.She says, “Love is a beautiful thing. But you’ve got 50 things that come during the day, like driving the kids to school, picking up the in-laws at the airport and working on a script when one of the kids has a high fever.”
