Reese Witherspoon opened up on Good Morning America today to discuss the arrest of her and her husband. We have the biggest moments from her confession.
Reese Fined and Jim on Probation After Court Date
Reese Witherspoon's lawyer appeared in an Atlanta court today to plead no contest to the disorderly conduct charges that stemmed from her April arrest. She will pay a minor fine for the infraction, though her husband, Jim Toth, will face more serious consequences following his DUI charge. Jim pled guilty in front of the judge, resulting in 40 hours of community service and a 12-month probation.
Reese and Jim were both arrested last month after Jim was pulled over for suspicion of driving under the influence. Reese has since spoken out about the incident and stopped by Good Morning America today to apologize for her actions while promoting her upcoming film Mud.
Reese Witherspoon on Her Arrest: "We Know Better"
Reese Witherspoon addressed her recent arrest for disorderly conduct during a stop by Good Morning America today in NYC, where she was promoting her new movie, Mud. ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos asked Reese about her disorderly conduct charge and her husband Jim Toth's for DUI.
Reese spoke with remorse about the arrest, referring to it as "one of those nights." She said, “We thought we were fine to drive and we absolutely were not. We know better and we shouldn't have done that." Reese went on to explain her reaction further saying, "I saw him arresting my husband and I literally panicked. I told him I was pregnant. I'm not pregnant. I said all kinds of crazy things."
Reese was also apologetic for her reaction to law enforcement officials, which she expressed, saying, "I was so disrespectful to him. I have police officers in my family. I work with police officers every day. I know better. It's just unacceptable." She also added a lighthearted joke as to the possible reason for handling the situation the way she did, placing the blame on her acting career. She said, "I played a lawyer in a movie so many times I think I am a lawyer, and, clearly, I'm not a lawyer because I got arrested." Apart from today's interview, Reese will revisit the incident again later this month, as her court appearance is scheduled for May 22 in Atlanta.

Reese Witherspoon Returns to Work in Atlanta Following Arrest
Reese Witherspoon was back at work on the set of The Good Lie in Atlanta yesterday after taking a short break from filming following her arrest on April 19. After Reese and Jim Toth's arrest, she spent the past week splitting her time between NYC and LA as she promoted Mud, her new film with Matthew McConaughey, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival earlier this month. Before her arrest, she sat down for an interview with Red magazine, where Reese talked about feminism and a few of her famous friends. She said she wants women to support successful women and let them "show off" their accomplishments, and also talked about her relationship with Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz, the latter of which, according to Reese, hides a "secret alter ego" of being a savvy business woman.
Reese Witherspoon Chats Babies and Fun Friends Cameron and Drew
Reese Witherspoon got incredibly candid for a new interview in the June issue of Red magazine, which hits newsstands in the UK on May 1. She touched on feminism, the gender pay gap, and her drive to become a businesswoman and avoid hiding her successes. Reese also discussed her life with baby Tennessee and her friendships with Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz, whom she says hides a secret alter ego. Read on for more from Reese Witherspoon in Red magazine.
- On women putting themselves down: "As women, we shrug and smile and say, 'Oh...me?' because it makes it socially acceptable for us to be successful. But there is a balance between being an arrogant jerk and being someone who is proud of their accomplishments. We need to let successful women show off and support them. Because men don't spend any time putting themselves down. They don't waste their breath. You have to be the best version of yourself and, if that means you have to be a bit self-promoting, then it's okay. It really is. Because who's going to believe in you more than yourself? Other than, maybe, your mother."
- On losing her mind after giving birth: "Ever since I had the baby, I can't remember anything. Serious, this child stole my brain. I'm losing friendships over forgetting to get back to people. But you can't keep up with everything. I've got a 13-year-old, a nine-year-old and a baby."
- On her friends Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz: "They're just as charismatic and fun as you would imagine. It's nice to hang with Drew because we both just had babies and we can support each other. And Cameron is such a funny, bright gal. She's an incredibly sharp business-minded woman, but she disguises that side of herself. It's her secret alter ego."
Reese Witherspoon Is All Smiles in LA After Her Arrest
Reese Witherspoon had a huge grin on her face as she hopped out of her car in LA yesterday. She's back on the West Coast after popping up in NYC on Sunday for the premiere of Mud alongside costar Matthew McConaughey.
