Off-screen, major changes in Reese's personal life began with her twenty-first birthday party in 1997. Out of three hundred guests, one in particular stood out in her mind - fellow actor Ryan Phillippe. As he tells it, he wasn't even sure he was invited but went anyway for the free beer. They hit it off immediately, but Ryan had to leave the next day to begin filming for I Know What You Did Last Summer. It was weeks of letter-writing and phone-calling before they ever actually had their first date. Finally Reese made the decision to visit him in North Carolina and over a few days they got to know each other very well and have been together ever since. "He seemed so sincere and so not into himself. Too many young actors are so obsessed with themselves, it makes a relationship near impossible." They moved in together shortly afterwards and became engaged in December of 1998. On March 2, 1999, they announced their engagement and the fact that they were expecting a baby in Fall 1999.
Her mother has a Ph.D. in pediatric nursing and her dad is a surgeon.
