Reese Witherspoon Shares Cute Selfie With Lookalike Daughter Ava Phillippe On Their "Perfect Summer Night" Out

Reese Witherspoon is serving major “wait, is that really her daughter?” energy again. This time it’s a July 2023 Instagram post from a “perfect summer night” outing, where she and Ava Phillippe posed together like they were straight out of the same photo shoot.

The pics show the Legally Blonde star and her lookalike daughter standing in front of a faux grass wall, plus a sweet pre-event selfie where they’re both rocking cozy hotel robes. And yes, the resemblance is so strong that people keep pointing it out, even though Reese says she does not see it herself.

With Reese already getting “mistaken for Ava” comments, this adorable night out feels like it just added another chapter to the never-ending lookalike saga.

The Legally Blonde star shared some adorable pics on her Instagram of herself and her daughter Ava Phillippe attending an event in July 2023.

Back when Reese shared those hotel-robes selfies with Ava Phillippe in July 2023, the faux grass backdrop made their twin-like vibe impossible to miss.

Reese’s “we’re just alike” comments feel different from the pregnancy announcement debate at a family reunion, despite cousins’ fertility struggles.

And because Reese has been told she looks like Ava Elizabeth for years, the comments basically follow them everywhere, even when it’s just a casual outing.

The whole thing gets even more interesting when you remember Ava is Reese’s daughter with Ryan Phillippe, their marriage starting in 1999 and ending in 2008.

After her marriage to Ryan Phillippe ended in 2008, Reese went on to marry talent agent Jim Toth in 2011. Their son Tennessee James was born in 2012.

In March 2023, Reese and Jim announced their decision to divorce. In an Instagram post, the actress shared that she and Jim "enjoyed many wonderful years together" and that they are now "moving forward with deep love, kindness, and mutual respect."

Reese and Ryan married in 1999, shortly after filming Cruel Intentions. They divorced in 2008.

Now that Reese has also moved on from her 2011 marriage to Jim Toth, this “perfect summer night” post lands like a sweet reminder that family is still the main event.

We can't wait to see what's in store next for Reese! We're sure the talented actress will continue shining brightly, no matter her next move, both professionally and personally.

As for Ava, she is looking more and more like her famous mom every day. And, let's face it, we doubt she's complaining about that!

Reese and Ava didn’t just step out for summer, they accidentally proved once again that genetics can be loud.
