REESE Witherspoon has accidentally leaked her co-star Karen Pittman’s real age, despite earlier reports claiming she’s a decade younger.
The actress appeared to clarify her The Morning Show co-star’s birth year during a sit-down on the Las Culturistas podcast.

Reese joined hosts Matt Rogers & Bowen Yang on the September 17 episode as a part of her press tour to promote the newly released fourth season of the AppleTV+ series.
At one point, the trio began gushing over Karen’s beauty and performance in the show, portraying television producer Mia Jordan.
It was then that Reese let it slip that she and the 30 Rock alum were actually the same age, contrary to reports that claimed she was 39 years old.
“By the way, y’all, we both grew up in Nashville, throw a rock, she went to the one girls’ school, I went to the other girls’ school, and exact same age coming up together, and we finally met on the first season of The Morning Show,” Reese recalled of her and Karen’s connection.
The Legally Blonde alum is 49 years old, which would make Karen a decade older than described in the media.
Multiple outlets have claimed that the And Just Like That… star was still in her 30s, although Karen has never confirmed her actual birthdate.
The clip circulated on a popular online forum where fans pointed out Reese’s revelation about her co-star’s age.
“I love Karen Pittman, I think she’s gorgeous, but there is no way in hell that she’s 39. I say this as a woman in her 40s,” one person wrote in the thread.
“I love Karen Pittman, but I was not buying 39 anyway,” another echoed.
Others were also shocked that Reese was approaching her 50s, given her youthful appearance.
The mother of three recently stunned fans upon revealing her birth name wasn’t the moniker she’s famously known as.
Even her co-star and longtime friend Jennifer Aniston, 56, was taken aback earlier this month when Reese dropped her real name during an interview with LADbible Entertainment.
It happened during a humorous segment called ‘Do You Even Know Me?’ where the pair quizzed each other on how well they knew one another.
When Jennifer learned that Reese’s real name was actually Laura Jeanne, the Friends alum reacted with pure shock.
