There are very few secrets in the age of social media.
In fact, the days of blind items — gossip stories in which key details are revealed, but the names are kept under wraps — are basically a thing of the past. It’s just too easy nowadays for amateur online detectives to piece together the whole picture.

The trouble began during a joint interview with Reese and Will Ferrell.
The co-stars are promoting their new movie, You’re Cordially Invited, and they sat down for a conversation in which Reese might’ve revealed more than she intended to while sharing the story of a former friend who no longer speaks to her.
“It literally haunts me,” Witherspoon told Ferrell in a piece that was published in People on Thursday.
“So this friend of mine — who I didn’t really know that well, but she was a very serious, proper actress — she asked me to give her an award.”
