There’s trouble in Hollywood. With Reese Witherspoon & Ryan Phillippe separating, the stakes are pretty high. When the couple married in 1999, they forgo-ed the ubiquitous prenuptial agreement.Â
The financial blow will be for 30-year-old Witherspoon who surpassed Julia Roberts earlier this year as the highest paid actress in Hollywood. Reese makes about $29 million a movie, while 32-year-old Ryan makes a piddly $2.5 million per film.
Ryan will be reaping the benefits as under California law, without your safety-net prenup, earnings are divided up 50/50. Ouch! But then again, with all this talk of Ryan’s infidelity, maybe Reese will be able to screw him nonetheless, ’cause it looks like he’s done his fair share of screwing this year.
