Reese Witherspoon has seemingly confirmed her relationship with German financier Oliver Haarmann after the two were seen displaying major PDA during a romantic date night in New York City.
This marks the first time Reese has been publicly seen with a romantic partner since her divorce from ex-husband Jim Toth in March 2023.
PDA-Filled Relationship: Who is Reese Witherspoon Dating?

She looked stunning in a little black dress, wearing minimal makeup and matching heels. Her blonde hair was styled down, and she carried a black jacket in one hand as they strolled together.
Oliver, on the other hand, dressed casually but stylishly, sporting a light blue button-up shirt, a navy jacket, beige pants, and loafers.
This PDA-filled outing appears to mark the public confirmation of Reese’s relationship with Oliver Haarmann.
However, despite the affectionate display, a source close to Reese emphasized that their relationship is still considered “casual.”
The insider revealed that while the two are enjoying spending time together, Reese is taking things slow and doesn’t want her dating life to become a public focus.
The actress has been prioritizing her work and her children, with family being her biggest concern at the moment. Reese has two children from her previous marriage to actor Ryan Phillippe—Ava, 24, and Deacon, 20—and one child, Tennessee James, 11, with her second ex-husband, Jim Toth.
Divorce From Jim Toth After More Than A Decade of Togetherness
Reese’s divorce from Jim, which was announced in March 2023, came after 12 years of marriage. They tied the knot in 2011 at Reese’s former country estate in Ojai, California, and together, they had a son, Tennessee.
In the statement shared about their divorce, Reese expressed that it was a difficult decision made with “care and consideration,” but she and Jim remained deeply respectful of each other and the family they built.
Their focus was on navigating their next chapter with mutual kindness and respect, with a particular focus on their children’s well-being during the transition. She noted in her post that her “biggest priority” is her family and requested privacy as they moved forward.
Reese’s relationship with Oliver has been under the radar for a while, with the couple previously being spotted together in late July 2024, enjoying more time together in New York City.
Their public outings have since stirred curiosity about their relationship, but insiders insist that Reese is taking it slow.
Another source close to the actress explained that while she enjoys the companionship, she is still focusing on her work and family, especially her son Tennessee, who is now the most important part of her life.
The source further emphasized that Reese does not want her dating life to overshadow her other responsibilities and commitments.
Statement On Their Divorce
However, in March 2023, after 12 years of marriage, the couple made the decision to divorce. Reese took to Instagram to announce the separation, stating that the decision was made with “deep love, kindness, and mutual respect” for each other and everything they had created as a family.

Reese’s divorce from Jim came as a shock to many fans, but it seems that both parties are committed to focusing on their family and keeping things amicable.
Reese’s relationship with Oliver Haarmann may be in its early stages, but she has made it clear that she is not rushing into anything serious.
For now, she is focused on balancing her career, family life, and personal happiness, taking things one step at a time as she moves forward after her divorce.
