Got it from her momma! It’s an indisputable fact that Reese Witherspoon and her daughter Ava Phillippe are almost identical. Seriously, the pair has Us doing double takes on the regular.
Because whether they’re sharing sweet selfies via Instagram or posing for a photo op on the red carpet, there’s no denying that the duo are total twins.
And as it turns out, Witherspoon is a huge fan of having a doppelgänger that doubles as her daughter. “I love being mistaken for her because it makes me feel so young,” the Big Little Lies star said in a November interview with InStyle. “I’m so proud of her. She really rolls with it. I’m sure it’s not easy looking exactly like your mother.”
Even though The Morning Show star is all-aboard the look-a-like train, Phillippe finds herself annoyed time and again. When that happens, she just rings up Zoe Kravitz, who grew up in a similar situation thanks to her nearly identical mother, Lisa Bonet.
“Whenever Ava is frustrated, I go, ‘Call Zoe, text Zoe, she knows what to talk about.’ I mean, that’s another mother-daughter combo that’s like identical twins,” Witherspoon added.
While Phillippe occasionally switches up her appearance with fun and funky hair colors (think: pink, purple and blue), she looks the most like her mom when rocking blonde locks.
Case in point? The Morning Show star took to Instagram in December 2019 to share a selfie of the duo in nearly identical hair, makeup and outfits.
From the honey-colored hair to the bright red lip and black top, the mother-daughter duo could easily be mistaken for sisters — and fans wasted no time pointing out their uncanny resemblance.
And as the years have passed, the two have only started to look more and more alike. For example, they most recently attended the Sing 2 premiere in December and made a point to recreate a family photo from the original Sing premiere in 2016.
“Five years later … we’re back at the @singmovie premiere !!!” Witherspoon captioned an Instagram video that showed her family’s transformation.
“This is an amazing flashback — they get older, you look younger,” Sarah Michelle Gellar commented. “Omg, Reese’s daughter looks just like her,” another person wrote.
