Reese Witherspoon may pay dearly for her split from husband Ryan Phillippe as the couple allegedly have no prenuptial agreement.
The actress now earns $20 million a movie while her husband only commands $2.5 million, but under California law earnings during a marriage are split 50/50 if no prenup is in place.
In 2005 alone Reese earned $30 million dollars for her two films 'Just Like Heaven' and her Oscar-winning role in Johnny Cash biopic 'Walk The Line', while Ryan has only appeared in two hit films in the last six years - 'Gosford Park' and 'Crash'.
However, sources say the couple are keeping the split amicable and will continue to do so for the sake of their two children, seven-year-old daughter Ava and three-year-old son Deacon.
A source told gossip website TMZ.com: "On a scale of one to ten, one being peaceful and ten being war, Ryan and Reese's split is a three."
But Ryan's mother Susan Phillippe said: "We're a little bit devastated and heartbroken."
The source also claims there is no chance of a reconciliation, and it is only a matter of time before divorce papers are filed.
