US actress Reese Witherspoon attended the “Blink Twice” premiere at the Directors Guild of America (DGA) in Los Angeles on August 8, 2024. She was seen with Haarmann, who arrived shortly after, dressed casually in green cargo pants and a black polo shirt. Witherspoon, sometimes referred to as “America’s Sweetheart,” had reportedly been on a “string of dates” with Haarmann.

The pair appeared in great spirits as they chatted during the day, marking the second time they had been seen together that week. They were also spotted together on Sunday, July 28, arriving at a heliport before heading to an apartment building. Witherspoon was quoted as being busy with work and her son, with both being her biggest priorities.

A source from *Life & Style* mentioned that Witherspoon doesn’t take dating lightly and was determined to take her time after splitting from Jim before jumping into another relationship unless she was absolutely sure. Despite the uncertainty of their status, the dynamic between Witherspoon and Haarmann seems to be a positive one for both of the divorcees. Haarmann and Gaonkar also share two sons and, after reaching a divorce settlement in August, agreed to continue co-parenting their son Tennessee.

For work, Haarmann is a founding partner of Searchlight Capital Partners, a private equity investment firm, and was previously a senior partner of the global investment firm KKR & Co. He earned a bachelor’s degree in history and international relations from Brown University in 1990 and an MBA from Harvard Business School in 1996.
