She told Seventeen magazine that her height was an issue on the film Penelope when she had to sit on a Vespa. 'Because I’m "height challenged," my feet couldn’t touch the ground and they tried to lower it as low as they possibly could, and my feet still couldn’t touch the ground on it,' she said. 'So we had to put it on a rig.'

Reese is married to Jim Toth, with whom she has son Tennessee, and she has two children - Ava and Deacon - with her first husband Ryan Phillippe. 

She has recently been filming the romantic comedy Your Place Or Mine in New York City with Ashton Kutcher.
