6. Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon

Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon got together when they were really young and they made it work for about a decade. Before finally calling it quits on their marriage, these two had tried couple’s counseling. Witherspoon didn’t look at getting therapy as a bad thing. “In what capacity is working on yourself or your marriage a bad thing?” she told Oprah Winfrey. “What marriage isn’t a journey? Nobody’s perfect. We all have our own set of problems.”

5. Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie

Hilary Duff and her estranged husband Mike Comrie reportedly spent 18 months in couple’s therapy before they finally decided to call it quits. Rumor has that she didn’t feel that he was putting enough into the relationship and that he wasn’t doing any of the stuff that they worked on in counseling. It looks like things started to go wrong when Comrie was injured in 2012 and was forced to retire from hockey for good. Him being home a lot and not doing anything really strained the relationship.
