How Witherspoon and Toth Met

Shortly after she and her ex-boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal broke up, Witherspoon was at a friend’s party when a drunk man started hitting her. In a 2012 interview with Elle, the actress stated the guy was making a fool of himself due to how drunk he was. However, out of nowhere, Toth approached and apologetically said: 

“Excuse my friend. He recently split up with someone. Jim was a great friend who helped him out of that predicament. He’s simply generally a good guy; that’s kind of who he is.”

That encounter sparked a relationship between the two, and just a month later, they sparked dating rumors during a dinner date at Locanda Portofino in Santa Monica. A fellow diner revealed to PEOPLE that the pair spent nearly two hours at the famous Italian restaurant and were “very flirtatious throughout dinner.” 

The source also added that they seemed to be having much fun with each other, chatting, and laughing the entire time. The environment was lively and energetic, and the actress smiled throughout dinner. The duo seemed to confirm their relationship when in March 2010, during Witherspoons’ birthday, the actress celebrated with her close friends, which unsurprisingly included Toth. She also introduced him to her children, and they all spent Easter weekend together.

In December of the same year they met, Witherspoon and Toth surprised fans when they announced their engagement. Meanwhile, Witherspoon was just as surprised as the fans saying in her interview with Elle she never thought she would get married again till she met Toth. However, Toth’s promise to be the best partner and person in her life changed the actress’ decision. 

After Toth proposed to Witherspoon, the couple had to wait till March 2011 before exchanging marital vows. The wedding held at Witherspoon’s estate in Ojai, California. Witherspoon stunned with a custom Monique Lhuillier blush-colored gown with a Chantilly lace corset bodice. Her daughter Ava, who served as maid of honor, also wore a matching Lhuillier frock.

In September 2012, the couple welcomed their son, Tennessee James, into their home. Also, in her interview with Elle, Witherspoon disclosed she felt lucky to have met and married Toth because a close friend once told her no man would ever accept her two children, Deacon, and Ava Phillippe, whom she shares with actor Ryan Phillippe. The actress noted:

“I was determined to find someone who could change that. And I struck it lucky. I did. He’s wonderful, and I’m very lucky to have met him. He is so wonderful with the kids. I’m incredibly fortunate.”

The Couple Celebrated a Decade of Marriage

In 2021 Toth and his Oscar-winning wife marked their 10th wedding anniversary by posting a cute picture from their wedding day in 2011 on Instagram. Witherspoon, who posted the photo on her page, wrote:

“Celebrating ten years of marriage to my sweet hubby. What a special day with all of our dear friends. Looking back, I can’t believe it has gone so quickly! But, I guess that’s how it goes with three kids, Big LOVE, lots of laughing, non-stop travel, so many dogs, and fun adventures.. figuring out this crazy world together.”
