Work pressure spoiled Johansson, Reynolds marriage

NEW YORK - Actress Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds decided to go separate ways under the strain of managing their thriving careers, says a source.

“There’s no third party,” people.com quoted a source as saying. “Ryan and Scarlett had been having some issues for a few months now. Distance and their careers played a big role. When you don’t spend a lot of time with your partner you grow apart.”

Reynolds, 34 and Johansson, 26, got married in 2008 in a simple ceremony in Vancouver.

“They had started to lead different lives and it was harder and harder to come back together and pick up where they left off,” said the source. “Scarlett was young when they married. She’s a mature person but at points they were just on different pages.”
