Reese Witherspoon reached out to Robert Pattinson when he was left heartbroken by Kristen Stewart. She went through the same phase after allegedly being cheated on by former hubby Ryan Phillippe, and did not want the Twilight star to feel the same way. According to a source close to the 26-year-old actor, Witherspoon has always looked at Pattinson like a little brother, and the fact that she could relate to what he was going through prompted her to give him a place to stay and a shoulder to cry on. “Reese went through a very public cheating scandal herself when Ryan Phillippe went outside their marriage and hooked up with Abbie Cornish, so her first thought when she heard about Kristen and Rob was to reach out to him and make sure he was okay,” Radar Online quote a source as saying.
