After the announcement of his separation to wife Reese Witherspoon on October 30th, Ryan Phillippe has kept silent…until now!
The Flags of our Fathers actor has released a statement to People about accusations of his infidelity and excessive partying during his marriage to Witherspoon.
Ryan says: “I’m not a perfect person, but I’m not guilty of a lot of the things I have been accused of. My priority is and always has been the health and safety of my family.”
He refused to comment on whether or not he was in a relationship with his co-star, Aussie Abbie Cornish, and his reps also had nothing to say on the matter, although they do “vehemently deny other recent allegations of hard partying and drug use.”
According to sources close to Reese and Ryan, his excessive partying was one of the major factors behind the separation, and during their marriage, they “would fight over that kind of thing all the time. [Ryan] got away with a lot and he knows it.”
Now matter what happens next, a pal says that the two will remain civil. “I know they love their kids to death. So they’ll do what they can to keep it from turning ugly.” [Source]
