Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon has said she is “thrilled” she is an inspiration to people.
The 33-year-old is mum to two young children with ex-husband Ryan Philippe and said she is happy to be an inspiration but just tries to get through her day like any other mum.
She said: “It isn’t anything I chose in life, it just sort of happened that way. We all just do the best we can.
“We’re all just people trying to get through life however we can… I’m thrilled to be any sort of inspiration to anyone!”
Reese, who was talking at the recent Avon Foundation for Women charity event at Cipriani in New York, also spoke about the new Avon fragrance she has launched, In Bloom.
She said: “I just wanted a scent memory of my childhood in Tennessee growing up. A lot of it is white flowers and gardenias and things that I grew up in the backyard loving.
“Things that I smelled on my mother and my grandmother that really inspired a feeling of being back home.”
