Abbie is the rumored Ôother womanÕ in Phillippe's split
2006-11-18
BURBANK, Calif. - Last week Hollywood box office ÔBlondeÕ Reese Witherspoon and her husband of seven years, actor Ryan Phillippe, announced they were separating. While the couple have admitted to undergoing marriage counseling in recent years, both Us Weekly and People magazine have suggested that the unionÕs final breakdown may have been affected by RyanÕs relationship with a star-on-the-rise Ñ Australian actress Abbie Cornish.Reports have accused Ryan and Abbie, a worldly, 24-year-old blonde, of growing close in Austin, Texas, during the latter part of this past summer while filming the 2007-due Iraq war drama ÒStop Loss.Ó Us Weekly reported that the two were spotted canoodling at the Texas capitolÕs upscale Asian-food restaurant Kenichi, whose clientele has also included Lance Armstrong and Sheryl Crow. Camp Cornish has since denied reports of a romance telling the magazine Òthey are co-stars and that is it.Ó Ryan told People magazine that, ÒIÕm not a perfect person, but IÕm not guilty of a lot of the things I have been accused of. My priority is and always has been the health and safety of my family.Ó Whether or not the scandal dies down, Abbie will remain in the spotlight thanks to a host of feature film roles ready to hit the screen. In fact, the pretty blonde, who has been referred to as the ÒnewÓ or ÒyoungÓ Nicole Kidman in world media, has been on the brink of break-out success for months.
