Reese Witherspoon found it 'rough' announcing split from husband Jim Toth

Reese Witherspoon is reportedly "doing much better now" after deciding to divorce her husband Jim Toth, with it said to have been "rough" to reach the decision.

It was announced just last month that the actor, 47, and talent agent Jim, 52 - who have been married since 2011 - had made the "difficult decision to divorce".

The former couple said in their joint statement that their son Tennessee, ten, and the wider family are their "biggest priority" as they "navigate this next chapter" of their lives.

It's now been claimed that the divorce was not an "easy" decision for Reese, though it has also been alleged that she has "no regrets" and is "doing much better now".

A source told People : "It was rough to reach the decision and to announce it. [She's] doing much better now though. She has no regrets and is just focused on her kids and work."

It was added that Reese - who shares her eldest two children with her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe, 48 - has a large group of "loyal friends" who she turns to for support.

And the source further claimed that there is "no drama" with Jim. They told the outlet recently that the former couple are co-parenting, which is said to be the "focus".

Actor and producer Reese - who is best known for films like Legally Blonde - and talent agent Jim announced their separation in a statement released last month.

Their joint statement read: "We have some personal news to share. It is with a great deal of care and consideration that we have made the difficult decision to divorce.

"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."

The former couple added: "Our biggest priority is our son and our entire family as we navigate this next chapter. These matters are never easy and are extremely personal."

They concluded the statement last month by writing: "We truly appreciate everyone's respect for our family's privacy at this time."
