What has Witherspoon said about raising children while working?
In an August 2025 Instagram post, Witherspoon described the demands of combining work and parenting in her own experience: “It looked really hard sometimes. I’d cry working 14 to 17 hours, sometimes all night long and still woke up early for carpool. I was deliriously tired.” Us Weekly reproduced the post and also quoted her reflection that, despite the challenges, having children gave her perspective on what mattered in life. The long hours are her personal account, not a general statistic about working parents. (Us Weekly)
