Before settling down with Jim Toth, and even before having two kids with Ryan Phillippe, Reese Witherspoon was romantically entwined with another Hollywood figure – Jeremy Sisto.
The actor revealed that he and the Oscar-winning star had a teenage romance after meeting on the set of a 1992 made-for-tv movie.
"[Witherspoon] was my first actress girlfriend," Sisto, 41, said during a Reddit Ama. "We had a long-distance relationship for a long time."
The movie, a drama called Desperate Choices: To Save My Child, was filmed when Witherspoon was around 16 and Sisto was around 17 years old. In the film, Witherspoon played a teenager dying from leukemia.

Jeremy Sisto has been making the press rounds for his new ABC series, Wicked City (which also features an extremely handsome Ed Westwick), and he participated in a Reddit Ask Me Anything on Monday to help promote the project. In addition to revealing the one place in the world he'd like to visit (Venice, Italy) and sharing that he doesn't really cook, Jeremy got candid about his past relationship with Reese Witherspoon. The two worked together on the 1992 TV movie Desperate Choices: To Save My Child and apparently took their relationship off screen as well. Jeremy wrote: "She was my first actress girlfriend. We had a long distance relationship for a long time. I was so into her. Then she went to Africa to do a movie and I guess I thought she had broken up with me because she didn't call that much so I moved on and met my ex-wife Marisa.
