No, you’re not seeing double.
Instead, some celebrities celebrating Mother’s Day this year just happen to look almost identical to their children.
Take Reese Witherspoon’s kids Ava Elizabeth Phillippe, 25, and Deacon Reese Phillippe, 21, whom she shares with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe. The pair, with their light blonde hair and blue eyes, bear so much resemblance to the Sweet Home Alabama star that their social media comments are often filled with comparisons.
Take Reese’s post celebrating Deacon’s 21st birthday in October. “You look like siblings,” one person commented, while another noted the actress’ son was “as handsome as ever and still looks a lot like his mama.”
Meanwhile, Ava’s resemblance to her mom was undeniable when she made her acting debut on Doctor Odyssey in April. Portraying Veronica, a college “vixen” aboard the cruise ship, Ava was clad in a pink bikini top with her hair tied back in a high ponytail—the exact spitting image of her mom as Elle Woods in Legally Blonde.
