Glamour cover
Witherspoon appears on the cover of Glamour‘s January issue. Witherspoon discusses finding happiness with Cheryl Strayed, the writer Witherspoon portrays in the movie Wild, who interviews her for the magazine.
I don’t think I realized [in my twenties] that no one else makes you whole. You have to take responsibility for your own happiness. That took me until I was about 31 to know. It wasn’t easy to realize, Oh, wait, I am purely responsible [for my life]—no relationship, no children, no nothing is going to make you a happy person. Every day you have to choose to find and cultivate your own happiness.
Harper’s Bazaar UK cover
Witherspoon appears on the cover of the January 2015 issue of Harper’s Bazaar UK magazine. She talks about being stereotyped in Hollywood, why she finding comedies less daunting, and limitations on roles offered to actresses.
It wasn’t as if there was a lack of roles being offered to me. It was the dynamic aspect of playing a really interesting, complicated person that was not readily available. Honestly, I don’t know a woman who isn’t complicated. It’s strange that you don’t see many complicated women on film; complicated meaning complex, I should say.
Wild
0 CommentsIn this drama, directed by Jean-Marc Vallee, Witherspoon plays Cheryl Strayed, a woman who decides to hike more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail alone, as a way to heal herself, following her divorce, the death of her mother, and years of reckless, destructive behavior. Co-starring Gaby Hoffmann and Laura Dern.
The grief, the divorce; the sex scenes were the hardest thing for me to do, honestly so hard. I’ve never had to do anything like that in my entire life. I had to do all the parts of the movie, the parts that made me feel uncomfortable too, because it is about emotional honesty.
The Hollywood Reporter cover

It’s a wonderful business. I feel like I’ve seen the world. I’ve met amazing people. I used to have all these regrets; I didn’t finish college. And about a year ago it was like, “Why would I regret not finishing college?” I’ve had a wonderful life and I’ve been everywhere and I’ve gotten to work with creative people and tell stories. That’s all I ever wanted to do. So if [my kids] wanted to do it, I’d be very encouraging. I do think it’s hard. I would definitely illuminate all the difficulties. But my kids don’t seem to gravitate toward it anyway. So we’ll see.

Elle cover
Witherspoon appears on the cover of the November 2013 issue of Elle magazine. She talks about how her kids have changed her.
Somebody was saying to me the other day, ‘Oh, people get less interesting when they have kids.’ I just don’t think that’s true. I feel like I was so confused before I had kids, I almost got in my own way. Having kids made me clearer about who I was as a woman. I just wanted to exhibit good qualities for my daughter. I was a little competitive before I had kids- probably really competitive, to be honest. It really made me let go of that.
Red cover
Witherspoon appears on the cover of the June 2013 issue of Red magazine. She talks about life after having a baby, Pinterest, and needing her girlfriends in her life.
Oh my gosh, I don’t know what I would have done so many times in my life if I hadn’t had my girlfriends. They have literally gotten me up out of bed, taken my clothes off, put me in the shower, dressed me, and said, ‘Hey, you can do this,’ put my high heels on and pushed me out the door! But you do have to work at friendships as much as you would any relationship. So, even when I’m really busy, we always manage to find each other on Saturday nights for a drink.

Reese Witherspoon interview
Seacrest interviews Witherspoon during On Air With Ryan Seacrest about her latest film This Means War.
It’s two guys who are best friends and they fall in love with the same girl. They decide they’re going to let her decide, then they can’t leave it at that, they’re going to sabotage each other. They’re CIA, so they have these spy techniques and drone planes and tranq [tranquilizer] darts. It’s really funny.
Marie Claire cover
Witherspoon appears on the cover of the October 2011 issue of Marie Claire magazine. She talks about her divorce and her husband.
I was hard on myself when I got divorced. And until I got remarried, I don’t think I realized how stressed I was. I feel so much relief. I don’t think I realized how stressed I was being a single parent. It was really, really stressful. It’s not easy on anybody.
Vogue cover
Witherspoon appears on the cover of the May 2011 issue of Vogue magazine. She talks about her husband and being in a good place in her life.
I mean . . . it sort of indicates that at other times I was not in a good place. Which is true. I have had my share of heartbreak. But I think your friends really know when you are at your happiest. Even though I am nervous and excited and all those things people feel when they are about to get married, I think I am mostly very calm right now. Usually, I’m a little bit of a squirrel. I have a squirrelly energy.
