Hollywood actor Reese Witherspoon, during a recent podcast show, opened up about the struggles she faced when she and her then-husband welcomed their first child. 

Witherspoon gave birth to now 21-year-old Ava in September 1999, about two months after she and her ex-husband, Ryan Phillippe tied the knot. The couple then went on to welcome their now 17-year-old son Deacon in October 2003, before separating in 2003.
