Reese Witherspoon has given birth to a healthy baby boy last Wednesday. The ‘Legally Blond’ star with her agent and husband, Jim Toth, named their son Tennessee James.
This is Reese’s third child. She has two children with ex-husband and ‘Cruel Intention’ co-star Ryan Phillippe.
They divorced in 2006 after seven years of marriage.
Reese remarried in March 2011 at her ranch in Ojai, California, according to reports.
The actress shared the good news through her representative, who is quoted by the Mail Online saying: “Both mom and baby are healthy and the entire family is thrilled.”
In June, Reese announced that she would be taking a break to raise her newborn.
The Mail Online quote her as saying: “I'm feeling very round tonight. After I finish [filming] 'The Devil's Knot', I'm going to take a little time off - and go have a baby!”
