Reese Witherspoon just gave a wide-ranging interview that the Daily Mail crafted into a slightly dull article. Though a little piece of interesting information did slip out: Reese doesn’t know if she wants to get married again. In fact, it sounds like it’s not even on the horizon for her right now, as she says she hasn’t had enough time since her divorce to really know that. She also talked a bit about her kids and how she and ex-husband Ryan Phillippe try to give them stability, and how she’d like a blue egg-laying chicken for Christmas. Can’t argue with that.
HOW DO YOU AND RYAN LOOK AFTER THE CHILDREN NOW?
I think the most important thing is the children, making sure they have stability. I think we just bear that in mind and that the most important thing is to be a grownup and not let feelings affect how you deal with your children.
WOULD YOU GET MARRIED AGAIN?
I don’t know. I don’t think about it much. At the moment, I am not far enough out of being married to think about doing it again.
WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST FEAR?
Anything happening to the children. It’s hard to protect your babies from the media. I have all the worries and fears of being a parent anyway, with the worry and guilt that come with that. But for me, the most difficult part is seeing my children being harassed.
WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE FOR CHRISTMAS?
I have a farm and I’d like chickens, an Araucana chicken. That’d be great – it would lay blue eggs.

If I were Jake Gyllenhaal, I’d get Reese a passel of Araucana chickens, asap. Because it doesn’t sound like she wants to marry him. Or maybe Reese is just being sneaky and coy. Gyllenhaal has always seemed the type to want to get married, and he’s very fatherly with Reese’s kids. I think he’d be pretty bummed if she was just using him to kill some time. Which it certainly doesn’t seem like she is doing, so I’m guessing Reese just didn’t want to answer the question but was still trying to be vague and polite.
Jake and Reese were caught Christmas shopping in Brentwood yesterday and looked pretty darn happy. Something tells me that despite what Reese said, they’ll probably be engaged within the next year or so.
