Ryan Phillippe Talks About His Divorce

Three months after his split from Reese Witherspoon, Ryan Phillippe says, "This is the most difficult time in my life." "I must stay focused on my kids," Phillippe, 32, tells TV's Extra in an interview airing this week.

Witherspoon filed for divorce on Nov. 8, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple were married for seven years and have two children: Ava, 7, and Deacon, 3. Asked if he's distracted himself with his work during this tough time, the Flags of Our Fathers star answers: "I have not found balance in my life yet."

Going through a break-up in the public eye makes things harder, he says: "It's unfortunate when you have kids ... but I signed up for this and have to deal with it. I don't read the magazines or watch the shows. ... It's hard when people follow me to my kid's school."

In his first public words about the split, Phillippe told in November: "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."

Phillippe would not comment on reports that a relationship with Abbie Cornish – the Australian actress who costars with him in an upcoming film – played a role in the demise of his marriage. But his reps vehemently denied other allegations of hard partying and drug use.

On Saturday, at a press event for his new movie Breach, Phillippe told reporters that, despite his personal turmoil, he's at a high point professionally. "I acknowledge that the successes and the opportunities I've had recently have been the best of my career," he said. "I've got to say it's the last thing on my mind right now, considering what I'm going through in my personal life, but I definitely appreciate the opportunities." But now, he said, he's ready to focus on his family: "I did three movies in the last year and a half and I'm going to take a good long break and be a dad. So that's No. 1 on my mind right now."

Reese Bans Cell Phones

Reese Witherspoon has reportedly banned mobile phones on the set of her new film - to stop pictures of her and co-star Jake Gyllenhaal from being taken. The Oscar-winning actress only filed for divorce from her husband of seven years Ryan Phillippe last month and is determined not to be linked to her dashing, single co-star. A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Reese doesn't want any rumours about her and Jake."

It has been claimed that New Line Cinema introduced the ban on cell phones on the set of 'Rendition', but the film studio has so far refused to comment on the matter. However, Reese's apparent ban may have come too late as news of her and Jake's budding friendship has already been circulating after the pair were spotted enjoying a lengthy chat. A source said: "Jake stopped by her trailer and waited for her. They laughed and talked then he left."
