People Magazine has a semi-snarky brief report on Ryan Phillippe’s antics after his split with girlfriend Abbie Cornish. They make it sound like he’s chasing after anything in a skirt and doesn’t have a type. First he’s all over one girl, then he got distracted by another, then he was with another group of girls. It sounds like a fun night out, but if reports are to be believed, Ryan had plenty of those in the months leading up to his breakup.
Newly single, Ryan Phillippe was definitely in a party mode at Teddy’s inside the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, where he mingled with several female clubgoers. Sporting a tight gray T-shirt, the actor hopped on the dancefloor and started getting down with somebody while Samantha Ronson spun tunes from the deejay booth. The actor and his lady friend were flirting, but then Phillippe started focusing his attention on a brunette. The two talked closely, getting pretty hands-on with each other as they danced. At one point Phillippe, who had a vodka drink in his hands all night, made a lap into the hotel’s lobby, where he chatted up a few more girls before returning to the club.

The best part of the Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish breakup story was the aftermath, which Kaiser already reported but I’ll recap. Ryan desperately tried to quash Abbie’s claim that she dumped him and moved out with his own PR person’s report that he’s the one who dumped her and kicked her out of his home. (Which is incredible, by the way. I wouldn’t move out of there willingly.)
OK! reported that the break could have happened because Abbie suspected Ryan of secretly reuniting with Reese for some hot sex, but I doubt Reese would be having that. She seems like she’s too strong and took too much of Ryan’s sh*t to hook up with him again. He’s the one who cheated on her with Abbie in the first place. The way I’m seeing it, Abbie just got fed up with Ryan’s womanizing ways. It bears repeating over and over “If he cheats with you…”
Bill Zwecker, the gossip columnist in the Chicago Sun Times, reports that a source tells him Ryan “has a Tiger Woods problem,” aka a wandering dick. No woman can validate those kind of men who have a near-bottomless need for reassurance and attention. So they go around trying to bed anyone who will have them while their partners sit home dealing with the worst of their sh*t. Maybe Abbie learned her lesson and will pick a guy who isn’t attached next time.
How you get your man is how you lose your man. If he cheats WITH you, he will cheat ON you. Need I go on?
No woman can compete with an insecure man’s ego. When your career surpasses his, he cheats to make himself feel better, and he cheats to get back at you for being more successful than he is.
He cannot deal with the fact that his girlfriends are way more talented than him, and are recognized as such. Personally I think he is a terrible actor.
When a man is insecure, especially a famous man, you don’t have to be more successful than him – you just have to be confident and they’ll cheat. It’s sad that these men require praise more than an emotionally stable partner. But yes; once a cheater, always a cheater.
He can afford a 7 million dollar home? I take it he is getting spousal support…
Not sure what Reese ever saw in him in the first place. Someobody said on here, and I don’t remember who, but it was something about how come these guys with sex addictions are never addicted to their wife/partner? LOL
I looked at the pictures of his house and it is beautiful but soooo sterile. There are no family photos, children toys, or anything of a personal nature in the place. Though, I do like one of the pics of a desk / table in what is probably the master bedroom that looks like it has a pile of cocaine on it.
Are you sure he’s hittin’ on the ladies? Jake’s single and they have Reese in common.
What a dick. That’s all I have to say.
And how many chicks did he go home with? This report doesn’t say. He’s single and flirting. How is that skeezy? If he was going home with random women (a la Jude Law) then that’s yucky.
@ TG:
“how come these guys with sex addictions are never addicted to their wife/partner? LOL”
LOL! So true. I don’t get the appeal of trying to sleep with as many different partners as you can. It’s gross, unsafe, and it’s very empty to have a bunch of meaningless hook ups!
I can’t believe I used to think he was hot in Cruel Intentions. (First and last movie I ever saw him in.)Guess his acting wasn’t much of a stretch to his real life character.
@Jenny, I’m guessing those magazine pics are of the place ‘before’ he moved in.
I just saw pictures of his house and it’s nice. It doesn’t say whether or not the pictures were before or after it was sold. The furniture could be from the period when the producer was living in it. Either way, I hope it was changed. There is too much fabrics, color, design going on.
When pictures of people’s houses are going to be published for all the world to see, I’m sure it’s been scrubbed down, everything has been placed to perfection, and more personal items (like pictures) may be removed so that people don’t over analyze every little detail. That’s what I would do. Can you imagine the controversy if he had an old family photo with Reese and the kids? Or else, maybe there aren’t enough pictures of the kids etc… People tuck toys away when there’s company over, why would there be toys lying around for a house photo shoot? (Although I could see Jen Garner doing it to promote her mommy image.)
Marrying Reese was apparently his best career move.
I honestly couldn’t go home with him to do anything. I think he gives off such a shady vibe. I don’t see how he and Reese ever had a thing, unless as the alpha partner she handled everything for him, kissed his ass, etc. I think she’s much more intelligent, talented and hardworking than he is. He’s one of those guys who has a better life than he deserves because he hooked up with a very together woman.
Poor Abbie. She learned the hard way.
The ONLY way Reese would have slept with him is if she was really drunk.
