Reese Witherspoon didn’t waste a moment shutting down rumors of a falling out with fellow actress Kate Winslet. Speculation began after Witherspoon’s interview with Will Ferrell, where she admitted to losing touch with an actress following an awkward awards show speech blunder. The internet quickly assumed she was referring to Winslet, but that doesn’t seem to be the case—Witherspoon and Winslet have since laughed off the rumors.
“Hey guys .. just spoke to my very dear friend for years, Kate W. We laughed about this stupidity. Please do not believe the internet,” the Big Little Lies actress wrote. “We are good friends and have never had any falling out.”
In the next slide, she continued, “This is completely UNTRUE …so silly!”
Reese Witherspoon recounted a story during a recent PEOPLE interview with her You’re Cordially Invited co-star Will Ferrell about presenting an award to another actress. The speech she gave was apparently so awkward that the two are no longer on speaking terms. “Not even kidding,” Witherspoon joked, “she doesn’t talk to me anymore!” While Witherspoon didn’t name the actress, online speculation points to Kate Winslet.
