"Everything inside me is made of sugar and flour and a little red wine–a lot of red wine."
Reese Witherspoon is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Elle magazine. In her coverstory interview, the Elle interviewer tries to get Reese to talk a bit about her relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal … but she doesn’t fall for it ;) Here is Reese’s coverphoto and a portion of her interview with the mag:

On her divorce: “Very humiliating and very isolating…But, by the way, if it’s not painful, maybe it wasn’t the right decision to marry to begin with. Those are the appropriate emotions. When people get in your face and say, ‘This will pass,’ you think, Are they crazy? I’m never gonna feel any better than I feel right this minute and nothing’s ever gonna make sense again. And I still have moments where I’m like, Nothings ever gonna make sense again.”
On dealing with the pain that stems from divorce: “You see a lot of people play this blame game. Blame, blame, blame. You know? And it’s a really easy thing to do, and I’m certainly guilty of it. [You have to] look at yourself and go, ‘What part of this do I need to own? Which part of this is my responsibility? And that’s the painful work that you have to go through to hopefully get some real life knowledge out of it.”
On being a young mother: “When I first had Ava, I couldn’t afford [help]. And it was so hard. I was out in Los Angeles, living [away from my family]. I really didn’t have any friends. And I had a baby. No one else who was 22 had a baby. I couldn’t go out.”
In all honesty, Reese really strikes me as a very sweet woman … one that is entirely wrong for Jake Gyllenhaal, but a sweet woman that I quite like. She deffo strikes me as one of the more genuine actresses in Hollywood. After the jump, check out another photo of Reese from this issue of Elle and read what little bit she has to say about her manfriend Jake Gyllenhaal …
