As a woman, I know that when a relationship comes to an end, the urge to eat our feelings away is probably at its strongest. Although this is proven to provide temporary relief, we end up hating ourselves later when our hottest LBD (little black dress) decides it will not zip up all the way.
Going through a divorce is hard on anyone. However, celebrities need to deal with their heartbreak publicly, something not many people are cut out for. Celebrities are expected to always look good no matter what they are going through. There are so many ways you can react post-divorce. Some people close themselves off from the world, while others put that energy into something more positive. We at TheRichest thought it would be fun to come up with a list of female celebrities who didn’t seem fazed by their divorce.
The next fifteen celebrities are pure inspirations when it comes to what to do after a breakup, which is start looking better than you did before. So for all of you women reading this, especially those that are going through a breakup, put the tub of Ben and Jerry’s down and go for a run…After you finish reading the article, that is!
#1 Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde is one of those women that every man wants to sleep with and every woman wants to look like. The actress is best known for her roles in the television shows House and Vinyl as well as the movies Drinking Buddies and Tron: Legacy. Most people know that Wilde is currently married to the hilarious and talented actor Jason Sudeikis, who she also has a child with. However, before this vixen found her soulmate, she was married to model Tao Ruspoli.
After the divorce, Wilde decided to change her look up a bit by turning herself into a brunette. She also changed up her style which gave her a confidence she never possessed before the divorce. It is no surprise that Sudeikis fell in love with his now wife. Not only is she incredibly talented, she is also one of the sexiest and most confident women on the planet which she kind of owes to her divorce!
#2 Evan Rachel Wood
Evan Rachel Wood is a beautiful and talented actress who made a mark on the industry in 2003 when she starred in the controversially brilliant film Thirteen. Since then Rachel Wood has appeared in a lot of other critically acclaimed movies like Across the Universe, The Wrestler and Into the Forest. The 28-year old has a classic beautiful look to her, not to mention carrying that sense of innocence that is so desirable. However, as we all know, looks can sometimes be deceiving.
The blonde bombshell was engaged to marry Marilyn Manson, legendary gothic rock star. A lot of people had some pretty harsh opinions about their relationship and Rachel Wood was even quoted saying that "people were pretty mean." Their relationship sadly did not last, however, we at TheRichest think that Manson's edge rubbed off on her a bit because she hit the single scene looking better than ever after the split. After their relationship ended, Wood found herself rekindling an old relationship with English actor Jamie Bell, the two even got married.
But Evan Rachel Wood is currently single after getting divorced. Regardless of the heartbreak, she is looking better than ever.
#3 Eva Longoria
Eva Longoria is one of those women who has always looked amazing. She is without a doubt one of the sexiest women on the planet, which is why it came as a shock to everybody that she got cheated on by her then-husband, professional basketball player Tony Parker.
Parker was busted texting his former teammate's wife, who was one of Longoria's good friends. She blindsided her then-husband by filing for divorce without him knowing, which as you can imagine, created a huge uproar throughout the media.
Longoria figured the best way to get revenge on the bastard was to look hotter than ever, which she did. She appeared on every red carpet event looking perfectly on point and she also exuded happiness, which every man finds sexy. Longoria even said, "I'm just in a happy place in my life that it's easy to be open and in love because I am in a complete place in my life."
#4 Elisabeth Moss
Elisabeth Moss is one of the most adorable faces in the industry. Best known for being one of the stars of the hit television show Mad Men, Moss is an undeniable talent. In 2009, the 34-year-old actress married SNL and Portlandia star, Fred Armisen. Although fans thought this was a match made in heaven, only 8 months later, she and Armisen called it quits in a very public way. Rumor is that Armisen had been having an affair with his SNL co-star Abby Elliot, who is currently on the show Odd Mom Out. After the pair split, Armisen and Elliot began to publicly date. Moss has said many things about her marriage including calling it "extremely traumatic, awful and terrible." But to her credit, Moss has been showing up on the red carpet looking better than ever since her split. She is wearing a lot more form fitting dresses allowing the world to take notice of her incredible body. She also changed her hair after the split, going for a darker, more seductive look, which suited her immensely.
#5 Kim Kardashian
It is almost as if every time Kim Kardashian gets divorced, she gets hotter. Kardashian was first married to songwriter Damon Thomas. The pair got married in 2000 and called in quits in 2004. A few short years after that, Kardashian's name started to become increasingly popular and she began looking better and better. Then, in 2011, she had an over the top, lavish, television wedding to professional basketball player Kris Humphries, but the marriage fell apart quickly.
Kardashian walked away from the divorce with more money and more confidence than she ever had before. Kardashian is continuously looking better and we at TheRichest are convinced that her divorce history may play a part in that. Now she is married to Kanye West and together they have two beautiful children. We can only hope for Kim that the third time is the charm!
# 6 Reese Witherspoon
Reese Witherspoon is one of the most adorable actresses in the industry. Her cheeky personality mixed with her enormous amount of talent is part of why she has found so much success in her career.
In 1999, the Academy Award winning actress married Cruel Intentions co-star Ryan Phillippe. The couple seemed like they had it all, however, after almost 8 years of marriage, the couple called it quits. The reason for the split was because Phillippe had not been faithful.
Witherspoon was reportedly devastated by this but instead of throwing herself a pity party, she decided to focus on getting her revenge by looking the best she could possibly look. She focused on her style, getting into shape and finding herself after the divorce. In 2011, Witherspoon found love again and said "I do" to talent agent Jim Toth and together they welcomed a beautiful baby boy into the world.
#7 Courteney Cox
In 1999, Courteney Cox married fellow actor David Arquette. For years, they were known as one of show business's most solid couples. However, in 2013, they announced that they were getting a divorce. The news saddened a lot of fans as well as a lot of their peers. Cox, who had not been single in over a decade, took the divorce for face value. Although the pair has remained quite close, Cox got revenge on her ex-hubby by simply looking incredible, even better than when they were married. She looked so good that she attracted another man, Irish musician Johnny McDaid, who she was reportedly engaged to. Sadly, the relationship recently ended, but fans are not worried about Cox because we all know she will come out of the breakup looking hotter than she ever has before. We at TheRichest can't wait to see who Cox's next man will be!
#8 Jennifer Aniston
There is no Hollywood breakup more traumatic to the world than that of Hollywood's golden couple Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt. The couple tied the knot in 2000 during a fairy tale wedding.
Although everything seemed perfect on the outside, in 2005 the couple called it quits. Pitt, who left Aniston for his now wife Angelina Jolie, had apparently been having an affair. Aniston, who was devastated by the divorce decided that she was not going to let this incident define her.
Aniston took her anger and put it into the gym perfecting her body, which she did. Aniston knew that all eyes were on her throughout this time so she took the opportunity to look more fierce than ever before. Although Aniston is now married, there is still a part in all of us that think maybe one day, Jen and Pitt will find each other again.
#9 Britney Spears
Britney Spears is a pop icon. Her rise to fame was very quick and it seemed like overnight the teenager became a world renowned superstar. Spears, who has had some publicly humiliating experiences has also gone through two public divorces. The first divorce was to Jason Allen Alexander and it was silly. The marriage did not last a year which did not come as a big surprise. Later that year Spears married again but this time, she married dancer Kevin Federline.
Spears and Federline seemed to have had an extremely passionate relationship, however it also seemed to be a bit volatile. In 2007, the couple split and Spears went through a bit of a rough patch. But our girl Spears came out of the divorce ultimately "stronger than yesterday" looking hotter than she did in the hit me one more time music video. Spears came back with a vengeance and is still looking like a million bucks.
#10 Kris Jenner
Kris Jenner is one of the most famous mothers on the planet. The mother of six has been married twice, and sadly, divorced twice. Not only did Kris Jenner recently go through a public divorce, she also had to go through her ex-husband publicly coming out as a woman to the world.
Kris Jenner married Caitlyn Jenner (formerly known as Bruce) in 1991. The couple shared many happy years together and brought into the world two beautiful daughters Kylie and Kendall. However, their marriage was far from perfect for many reasons.
Kris Jenner channeled her pain and her heartbreak into her job and of course into herself. It is hard to be single at any age, but being a single grandparent must be extremely difficult. Good thing Jenner has been looking as good as she has, or else she would have probably never found another man.
