"It's bizarre," the actor told USA Today Wednesday, adding that he avoids looking at photos of Witherspoon and boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal.
"There's plenty of times when I say, 'What a strange situation I've found myself in,' " he said. "But at a certain point you know it's going to happen, so you are prepared."
Phillippe, 33, split from Witherspoon the mother of his two children, Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4 in October 2006. The actress's new romance first made headlines last March, when she and the Brokeback Mountain star were spotted dining at L.A.'s Il Sole.
As for Phillippe's own love life, the actor who's been linked to actress Abbie Cornish remained reticent. "It's just something I would really rather not address," he told the paper. "It has to be a 'no comment.' "
He also insists that despite a painful divorce, he isn't ruling out a second marriage.
"I can see doing it again, yeah," he said. "And I can certainly see possibly having children again. I'm pretty young, and there are many beautiful things about that idea of marriage and family. It just doesn't always work out perfect for everybody."
Bastard. I would respect him more if he said he made plenty of mistakes with Reese (he wouldn't have to mention the infidelity) but he could claim he has learned from those mistakes and won't repeat them if he marries again.
She always seemed nice, but maybe a bit of a perfectionist.....which could come across as annoying I suppose. And Ryan is a great actor, definitely...but the last line of his comment, "It just doesn't always work out perfect for everybody" seemed to imply he had NOTHING to do with the marriage ending, that it was somehow mutual...which is unbelievable because there are pictures of him kissing his co-star while he was married.
