Reese Witherspoon is a woman of the people.
It is not often, if ever, that you meet someone who doesn’t find the Legally Blonde actress completely likeable.
But… there is just one thing. There is three of her.
Let us explain.
Earlier today, Reese Witherspoon shared an image of herself with her 19-year-old daughter Ava Phillippe and her mother Dr. Betty Witherspoon.

The photo by Vogue captures the intergenerational bonds between these women.
But… they all look the exact same.
As far as we are concerned, they are all Reese Witherspoon.
Here are some theories as to why:
Reese Witherspoon’s daughter Ava is definitely her mother’s doppelgänger.

no one I’d rather hold hands with at a festive tourist trap! ❄️ #reunion
A post shared by Ava Phillippe (@avaphillippe) on
Last year, Reese Witherspoon opened up about her brutally honest parenting method with Ava.
“I remember Ava crying in bed in third grade — she was on JV basketball and she was the only kid on the team who didn’t score. I said, ‘Aves, maybe you’re bad at basketball.’ She thought that was mean. I said, ‘Mean or true? ‘Cause, guess what? Your mom’s bad at basketball, too,” she said in an interview with Fast Company.
I guess that honesty is acceptable when you’re talking to…. an alien version of yourself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Who are these people who are "freaking out" because a daughter looks like her mother and that mother looks like her own mother? Is the concept of a child resembling their parents completely foreign to them?
They don't even look "the exact same". You can tell they're related and there's certainly a very strong family resemblance but Reese and Ava both clearly also inherited features from their fathers. You can see Ava's resemblance to Ryan Philippe especially in the last picture, where she's wearing the black dress.
Ava looks just like her dad, Ryan. She just has Reese's colourings. It's Deacon that has Reese's face.
