Reese Witherspoon's daughter Ava Phillippe moves in with her boyfriend
Reese Witherspoon 's daughter, Ava Phillippe, has taken a major step in her relationship with Dakota Brubaker. Earlier this month, the actress, 25, revealed she moved in with her partner Dakota Brubaker in a sweet TikTok video. As fans excitedly reacted to the news, many social media users couldn't help but point out the resemblance between the couple and Ava's parents. Ava and Dakota seemed to bear a striking resemblance to her parents, Reese Witherspoon, 49, and Ryan Phillippe, 50, who split in 2006 after seven years of marriage. Rather than ignore the online chatter, the pair leaned in to the comparisons in another video, which showed them looking dumbstruck before dressing like the her parents in 1999's Cruel Intentions. In response to her followers' cheeky remarks Ava captioned the video: 'you guys… whaaaaattt @Dakota Brubaker.' Ava and Dakota have been making a series of humorous TikToks together, including one on Dakota's account titled 'POV you and your gf finally move in together.' Mike Posner's Cooler Than Me was playing beneath the clip as Ava snuck up behind him and hugged him. He captioned the post: 'You'll be married in a year in the suburbs or something like that.' Under the post, TikTok users flooded the comments, with many declaring them the 'next gen Reese and Ryan.' The couple went official on social media in December when Ava posted a snap of her beau kissing her on the cheek in a photo booth. Dakota posted the same picture and added one of them sitting beneath a Christmas tree. It's unclear how the couple met, but both attended the University Of California at Berkeley. They were seen together at an event hosted by The Hollywood Reporter and Instagram for content creators in November 2024. Dakota is a musician who also goes by the name Vindigo. Dakota began as a member of a band by that name, but announced in August 2024 that it had become a solo project. Meanwhile Ava has been building her acting career with appearances in Dr Odyssey and Ransom Canyon. Prior to Dakota, she dated Owen Mahoney, another UC Berkeley student, from 2019 to early 2024.

A wild comment has left Reese Witherspoon's daughter grossed out
A wild comment about her romantic relationship has horrified Reese Witherspoon's and Ryan Phillippe's daughter. Ava Phillippe, 25, has recently been on a TikTok posting spree, sharing cute videos of herself and her musician boyfriend, Dakota Brubaker, to her more than a million followers. It was all going well until someone decided to compare her and her current boyfriend to her parents - yes, her parents. 'Close enough. Welcome back, Reece and Ryan,' the person commented. The 25-year-old posted a video response to the accusation, yelling, 'No, no, no' while waving her hands around in protest. 'You guys … what,' she captioned the video. Her objection didn't really work. It just made more people comment, claiming that her boyfriend looked like her dad and that she looked like her mum. 'If not cruel intentions why cruel intentions shaped?' One asked. 'I see it. Literal Reese and Ryan,' someone claimed. 'Your parents are iconic. Own it,' another instructed. Ava's movie star parents met in the 1990s, starred in Cruel Intentions together, got married in 1999, had two children, Ava and Deacon, and divorced in 2008. Outside of being disgusted that people are comparing her relationship to that of her divorced parents, Ava often goes viral because she looks so much like her mum. People have gone so far as to claim they look like 'twins,' and Ava's life is pretty unrelatable because of her celebrity upbringing. She attended The University of California but has dabbled in modelling and has most recently turned her hand to acting with guest roles in shows like Doctor Oddessy. While Ava has stayed away from mainstream media, her mum, Reese, did open up about parenting adult children on the US Today Show. 'First of all, you're managing them a lot when they're little, and it's very physical, and then it's more emotional support. And suggestions, not telling them what to do when they get a little bit older,' she said. She also stressed that you must 'nurture' your adult relationships with your children while still giving them 'space and respect' to become who they are. Witherspoon went on to emphasise the importance of maintaining a healthy bond with her children. 'You have to really nurture your adult relationship with your children too. And give them respect and space to become who they are, not who you want them to be,' she said.

Fans can't get over how much Ava Phillippe's boyfriend looks like her father
Ava Phillippe will never live down the comparisons — and neither will her boyfriend. The 25-year-old daughter of actors Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe has made plenty of headlines through the years due to her striking resemblance to her iconic mother and father. But now fans are bringing her boyfriend, Dakota Brubaker, into the mix. Ava Phillippe and Brubaker, a musician who goes by the stage name Vindigo, went Instagram official in December after previously teasing their relationship several months prior. On June 10, Ava Phillippe posted a TikTok video of her and Brubaker lip syncing to Ke$ha's hit song, 'Your Love Is My Drug.' And it didn't take long for the 16-second clip to go viral. 'Close enough. Welcome back Reese & Ryan!' one fan wrote in the comment section. Fans were quick to point out how much Ava Phillippe looked like a '50-50 match' of her parents, but others were more focused on how much Brubaker resembled her father. 'Thought it was her dad for a split second,' one fan wrote, while another commented, 'Reese and Ryan is that you?' On June 11, Ava Phillippe returned to TikTok with a hilarious reaction to the comparisons. In the video, Ava Phillippe is standing in the kitchen when her boyfriend slides into frame wearing a black turtleneck and reading glasses — recreating her parents' look when they co-starred in 'Cruel Intentions.' 'You guys… whaaaaattt,' she wrote in the caption, while mouthing 'No, no, no, no,' in the video. The video was also set to The Verve's 'Bitter Sweet Symphony,' which was the song that played at the end of her parents' iconic movie, released in 1999. 'This song choice is DIABOLICAL,' one fan wrote in the comments, while another added, 'Not the turtle neck too.' Ryan Phillippe and Witherspoon met in 1997 at the latter's 21st birthday party, according to People. They quickly became one of Hollywood's biggest 'it' couples after announcing their engagement in 1998 and co-starred in 'Cruel Intentions' the following year, which officially put them on the map. The couple married in June 1999 and welcomed their first child (a daughter named Ava) in September of that year — six months after the premiere of 'Cruel Intentions.' 'I mean… technically you were IN Cruel Intentions…' one fan commented under Ava Phillippe's recent TikTok. Ryan Phillippe and Witherspoon welcomed a second child, a son named Deacon, in October 2003 before separating in 2006 and finalizing their divorce in 2008. Witherspoon has since welcomed a second son, Tennessee James, with her other ex-husband Jim Toth, whom she announced her divorce from in 2023. Meanwhile, Ryan Phillippe shares a second daughter, Kai, with his ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp.

Fans of Reese Witherspoon's nepo baby Ava point out awkward detail about her boyfriend
Reese Witherspoon 's nepo baby Ava Phillippe was left mortified after her TikTok followers pointed out an awkward detail about her and her live-in boyfriend, Dakota Brubaker, on Wednesday. The 25-year-old model responded to a comment which referred to the pair as 'Reese & Ryan' - implying that they resemble her mother and her ex-husband Ryan Phillippe. Ava - who's named after Ava Gardner - visibly cringed at the comment, waving her hands no, while Dakota looked equally uncomfortable. In the caption, Ava wrote: 'You guys, whaaaaattt.' However, she also leaned into the comparison by having the anthem from her famous folks' 1999 movie Cruel Intentions - The Verve's 1997 hit Bittersweet Symphony - playing in the background. in the clip Brubaker wore glasses and a black turtleneck to more authentically portray Ryan's character Sebastian Valmont, who seduces the innocent Annette Hargrove (Reese) in Roger Kumble's modern adaptation of the 1782 novel Les Liaisons Dangereuses. Famous mumma: Ava with her actress mom Reese Witherspoon Reese and Ryan are also parents of 21-year-old son Deacon Phillippe but divorced in 2007 after seven years of marriage. In the comments section, one fan wrote: 'I mean... technically you were IN Cruel Intentions...' Another said: 'OMG they did not. LOL! Your parents are iconic though. And so are you for this video.' Another wrote: 'I genuinely have never seen someone have both their parents' features so strongly.' A fourth added: 'Like some of the faces you make you're all your mom and this one you are all your dad. It's insane how you look exactly like one or the other in different angles.' Seeing double? Dakota played along with the joke and dressed up like Ryan's character Sebastian Valmont Ava appears to have little to no relationship with Ryan, whom she hasn't been pictured with since 2018. She began her modeling career at age 19 in 2018 for Rodarte's Fall lookbook. The Planned Parenthood campaigner went on to star in campaigns for Ivy Park, Pat McGrath Labs, and Vince Camuto as well as for Reese's clothing company, Draper James. Meanwhile, the UC Berkeley grad - whose stage name is Vindigo - has been recording his first-ever full-length studio album over the past two months.
