Witherspoon, Haarmann's Saint-Tropez Yacht Romance Grows

Reese Witherspoon, 49, and German financier Oliver Haarmann, 57, were seen displaying affection during a yacht getaway in Saint-Tropez, France, about a year after their relationship became public. The couple, first linked in July 2024 and confirmed to be dating by September 2024, spent time together with Witherspoon's three children from previous marriages. Witherspoon is reportedly enjoying the relationship while continuing to prioritize her work and family, frequently traveling between Nashville and New York City to see Haarmann. Haarmann, a Brown and Harvard graduate, is a founding partner of Searchlight Capital Partners, a minority owner of the New York Islanders, and has an estimated net worth of $440–$500 million. Sources describe him as having a supportive, mentoring role in Witherspoon's life and not being involved in Hollywood. The romance remains relatively private and low-key, with both focusing on personal and professional commitments.
