When hot young things Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe met at her 21st birthday in 1997 , their attraction was instant .
Liking what she saw , an emboldened Reese wasted no time in making her move on the man she officially split from 13 years ago today .
`` I don ’ t know what came over me – maybe the seven Midori sours – but I told him , ‘ I think you ’ re my birthday present.
’ He thought it was so flattering , and now that I think about it ... how embarrassing !
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
They quickly moved in together and Ryan popped the question after they co-starred in 1999 's Cruel Intentions .
The couple married on June 5 that year in Charleston , South Carolina , when Reese , then 22 , was already six months pregnant with their first-born , Ava , 21 .
Son Deacon , 16 , followed in 2003 , a year after Ryan revealed they 'd entered couples ' therapy in a bid to look after the health of their marriage .
“ The biggest mistake is not doing that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fall apart because of laziness , '' he told the New York Daily News at the time .
For her part , Reese was keen to paint a realistic picture of their relationship , telling People magazine : `` We ’ re normal people with normal problems.
” And in 2004 she bluntly told Vanity Fair : `` Marriage is hard .
It 's not about expecting someone to make you happy every day or to complete your life . ''
Work often tore the couple apart , with one always staying behind @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other was away on set .
And it was during Ryan 's stint on 2006 movie Stop Loss that rumours of an affair between himself and Australian actress Abbie Cornish first circulated .

`` It was unfair for her to be called the names that she was , because it wasn ’ t about that , '' he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I don ’ t think an outside person can ever cause a divorce .
I had difficulties in my relationship , and in my marriage , long before I ever met her.
” That November , he and Reese called time on their marriage , with their divorce being made official on October 5 , 2007 .
Reese , who was just 30 at the time , described the divorce as `` very humiliating and very isolating '' and revealed how she suffered intense anxiety attacks for months afterwards .
`` Right around @ @ @ @ @ @ @ parking lot and I felt like I just could n't get out of the car , '' she told Elle magazine .
`` It was like , I ca n't get out of the car . ''
The actress finally managed to coax herself out when she realised she was n't alone in suffering heartbreak .
But such was the depth of her distress that she harboured fears that she would never feel normal again .
`` When people get in your face and say , 'This will pass , ' you think @ @ @ @ @ @ @ never gon na feel any better than I feel right this minute and nothing 's ever gon na make sense again , '' she added .

“ [ It was ] the darkest , saddest place I had ever been .
It was a struggle ... @ @ @ @ @ @ @ life , '' he told W magazine .
So what was the reason for their tragic split ?
Both would later admit that age played a huge part .
`` I think more of the problem was age .

“ I think it can create issues with two people in this industry because there 's so much noise that goes along with it . ''
“ I got married when I was 23 and I had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 27 , ” she told ITV 's Lorraine .
“ I don ’ t know , sometimes it ’ s good to know yourself [ before getting married ] . ''
Ryan went on to have daughter Kai Knapp , nine , with ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp while Reese married talent agent Jim Toth in 2011 and their son Tennessee was born in September 2012 .

Ryan, too, was devastated, revealing how he was unable to get out of bed for "a good four or five months."
“[It was] the darkest, saddest place I had ever been. It was a struggle... It was the worst time in my life," he told W magazine.
So what was the reason for their tragic split? Both would later admit that age played a huge part.
"I think more of the problem was age. When we got together we were so young," Ryan told Larry King in 2015. “I think it can create issues with two people in this industry because there's so much noise that goes along with it."

And Reese echoed his sentiments.
“I got married when I was 23 and I had two kids by the time I was 27,” she told ITV's Lorraine.
“I don’t know, sometimes it’s good to know yourself [before getting married]."
Ryan went on to have daughter Kai Knapp, nine, with ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp while Reese married talent agent Jim Toth in 2011 and their son Tennessee was born in September 2012.

Thousands of Universal Credit claimants to get £405 boost this week over DWP error

Eligible claimants who lost out when the DWP introduced the Severe Disability Premium (SDP) Gateway system will see their payments rise by £120, £285 or £405 from Thursday.
The Severe Disability Premium was introduced in 2019 to ensure vulnerable people on 'legacy benefits' would not lose out when they moved over to Universal Credit.
Under it, vulnerable groups would be transferred over under a 'managed migration' process and not until 2021.
However, those that switched across before it was introduced may have lost out on hundreds of pounds as their payments fell overnight.
It affected those who switched to Universal Credit from Income Support, Jobseeker's Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Housing Benefit or Pension Credit, if they were also receiving a top-up allowance called Severe Disability Premium (SDP).
The DWP has since paid out "transitional payments" of £120, £285 and £405 to those affected, however from October 8, these payments will start appearing in your usual Universal Credit income.

"This means that payments will be made through the UC system rather than manually, and all transitional protection will be subject to the same rules."
Although the DWP stopped anyone else on SDP from moving across to Universal Credit after January 2019, many had already been transferred to the new welfare scheme.
A DWP spokesperson said under current rules, those in receipt of a SDP will stay on their legacy benefits until January 2021 when they will be switched over to Universal Credit.
It said former SDP recipients who have already moved to Universal Credit, or who move after January 2021, will be considered for SDP transitional payments, which may consist of a lump sum payment and ongoing monthly payments.

The government is reportedly weighing up a new three-tier system of restrictions which will see pubs and restaurants forced to close in worst-affected areas in a desperate bid to simply confusing rules
Leaked documents claim ministers grappling with rising coronavirus infection rates are weighing up new 'three-tier' restrictions to tackle confusion.
Under the proposed traffic light system, all areas in England would be assigned a colour, with toughest restrictions in 'red' areas.
Pubs and restaurants in the worst-affected places would be forced to close again, and people would be banned from mixing with other households.
A draft document seen by The Guardian says the system would simplify the swathes of restrictions currently in place across the country.
Each area in England will be assigned a traffic light colour - red, amber and green - with rules set accordingly.
Even in green areas, where the infection rates are lowest, the rule of six and 10pm closing times would remain in place.
Earlier today data showed Manchester has the highest infection rate in England, followed by Liverpool and Knowsley in Merseyside.
The government has not revealed which areas it would class as red, amber or green.
This is how restrictions would vary:
Red
Hospitality and leisure businesses close
Social contact outside your household banned in any setting
Overnight stays away from home restricted
No organised non-professional sports allowed
Places of worship would be allowed to remain open
Amber
No social contact in homes or gardens outside your bubble
Care homes not allowed visitors
Only essential journeys are permitted
Green
Rule of six remains in place
Pubs and restaurants have to close at 10pm
Limit of 15 people at weddings and 30 at funerals

In all areas, The Guardian reports, schools would remain open and are not specifically mentioned among lists of restrictions.
The document, named the Covid-19 Proposed Social Distancing Framework, has not been approved by the government - and it is likely that Tory MPs would demand a vote in Parliament before it becomes law.
It says: “Preventing household mixing and closing businesses and venues in which there is close social interaction was recommended as the best way to reduce R.”

And it said that 'red' restrictions would be “triggered in geographical areas or nationally when alert level 2 measures have not contained the spread of the virus, or where there has been a significant rise in transmission”.
Amber level would be “triggered in geographical areas or nationally when there has been a rise in transmission, which cannot be contained through local responses”.
On Friday the government's Sage committee said England's R number - which describes how fast the virus is spreading - is between 1.2 and 1.6.
This means the number of cases could be doubling every seven days, with London and the North East showing the fastest rise.

Liverpool saw a massive rise in cases in the seven days to Thursday - with the infection rate increasing to 456.4 per 100,000, with 2,273 new cases.
Knowsley is in third place, up from 300.3 to 452.1, with 682 new cases.
Other areas recording sharp increases include:
Newcastle upon Tyne (up from 256.6 to 399.6, with 1,210 new cases)
Nottingham (up from 52.0 to 283.9, with 945 new cases)
Leeds (up from 138.8 to 274.5, with 2,177 new cases)
Sheffield (up from 91.8 to 233.1, with 1,363 new cases)
Public Health England last night admitted 15,841 cases were left out of daily reported figures between September 25 and October 2.
Now it has emerged the cases were not only missing from statistics - but also from vital contact-tracing efforts led by the outsourced NHS Test and Trace.
PHE insisted every person who was tested initially received their test result as normal, with all those testing positive told to self-isolate.
But Test and Trace and PHE joint medical adviser Susan Hopkins admitted: "All outstanding cases were immediately transferred to the contact tracing system by 1am on 3 October.
"And a thorough public health risk assessment was undertaken to ensure outstanding cases were prioritised for contact tracing effectively."

Wales 'actively considering' quarantine for visitors from other parts of UK
Wales' government is "actively considering" imposing quarantine on people who arrive from highest-risk parts of the UK.
Health Minister Vaughan Gething raised the bombshell suggestion for visitors and returning residents - as he warned the situation is now the same as the start of March.
It comes after Boris Johnson resisted calls to impose restrictions on people travelling from hotspot areas to Wales.
Mr Gething told a press conference: "We're actively considering what we should do and I've discussed it this morning with the First Minister.
"We have quarantine regulations for international travel.
"So for some of the hotspot areas in the north of England, the North East and North West, and the West Midlands, if they were other countries or territories, we would have quarantine regulations for them to return to the UK."

Sixteen of Wales' 22 council areas are under local lockdown restrictions - many of which prevent people entering or leaving the area without "reasonable excuse".
A reasonable excuse does not include travelling for a holiday.
First Minister Mark Drakeford had previously called on Prime Minister Boris Johnson to introduce travel restrictions for people in areas of England under local lockdown.
Mr Gething today warned there should not be cross border travel, and hit out at people who travelled for an event in the last week.
He compared the spread of the virus now to the "end of February or start of March", adding: "We're at a point of real maximum seriousness and risk for the country."
He said any potential quarantine restrictions would apply to people from "high incidence areas across the UK".
Mr Gething added: "We're having to consider how we use our power to protect lower-prevalence areas of Wales but at the same time, we don't want to take a whole-nation approach.
"There's no good reason to prevent someone from Devon, at this point in time, coming to visit a pre-booked holiday or trip to Pembrokeshire.
"So we are thinking about how we use something that is proportionate and deals with the reality of the threat that we face."
Mr Gething said overseas travel over the summer "definitely" introduced coronavirus into some communities in Wales.
"We do know that travel brings with it additional risks," he said.
"We know that if people from Liverpool come and mix, and they're in the same pub, the same environment as other people, there's a risk of there being spreading events."
Asked about the quarantine idea, Boris Johnson's official spokesman said: "That is for the Welsh Government to determine.
"In terms of our own guidance, you can see from steps we put in place in the North East and Merseyside relating to travel we've been encouraging people to walk or cycle where they can. People should use common sense when they travel."

Manchester United have completed the signing of Porto fullback Alex Telles in a £13million move.
The question now is who else will come in before the transfer deadline is up?
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer watched his side hit for six on Sunday and is desperate to bolster his options.
Edinson Cavani should hand them an attacking boost, with the ex-PSG striker having agreed terms to join Telles and Donny van de Beek as new signings.
United remain keen on Jadon Sancho, but they have so far failed to meet Borussia Dortmund's valuation of the player - and show little sign of finally hitting that £108million price.
Barcelona's Ousmane Dembele has been offered as a cut-price alternative, although the Frenchman has also been linked with Liverpool, while United insist they won't meet Watford's £45million Ismaila Sarr price tag.
Solskjaer has his fullback and the striker is on the way. Will he get his winger?
