Reese Witherspoon Hospitalized
by Shannon KeirnanAmerica’s favorite pint-sized and hugely pregnant blonde was hospitalized yesterday due to complications with her pregnancy.
Luckily, the pretty friend of "Water for Elephants" co-star Robert Pattinson is doing just fine.
Doctors were worried that the small lady might possibly go into premature labor (her baby with husband Jim Toth is not due until September), and she was hospitalized to avoid further issues.
A source close to the actress reassures fans that while Witherspoon is resting comfortably.
“Doctors have sedated Reese and they’re keen on keeping her from going into an early labor so the baby’s development will go to full term.”
Witherspoon will more than likely have to spend a few days in the hospital for some rest and observation, which might be difficult for the busy mother of Ava and Deacon.
This is Witherspoon’s third child, but her first with her new husband (Ava and Deacon are the lovely offspring of Witherspoon’s ex, Ryan Phillippe). The source noted that nervous Toth “hasn’t left her side and doesn’t plan to.”
Toth, a Hollywood agent, met Witherspoon at a bar, where a drunken friend of Toth’s was hitting on the actress until he intervened and “rescued” her. Jury out on whether that was a well-played wingman move or happenstance, but it lead to a spring 2011 wedding, and an enormous bun in that tiny oven, so it clearly worked out in the end.
The power couple are also admired in Hollywood not only for being adorable and rich, but for being unusually down-to-earth and good natured.
Reese has our best wishes for a healthy pregnancy and another beautiful baby for her and Toth!
