Ava Phillippe Reacts to Boyfriend-Dad Resemblance on TikTok

Ava Phillippe, daughter of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe, humorously reacted to social media comparisons between her and boyfriend Dakota Brubaker and her famous parents. On TikTok, she cringed and mouthed "no" repeatedly as Brubaker appeared wearing a black turtleneck and glasses reminiscent of Ryan's character Sebastian Valmont in the 1999 film "Cruel Intentions," which starred her parents. Despite her embarrassment, Ava embraced the comparison by pairing the video with The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony," the iconic song from the movie. The couple's resemblance sparked comments from fans noting the uncanny likeness, with some saying Brubaker looked just like Ryan Phillippe. Ava and Brubaker confirmed their relationship with a PDA photo in December 2024, while Ava has been candid about navigating her public image as a 'nepo baby.' Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe, who divorced in 2007, have maintained an amicable co-parenting relationship with their children Ava and Deacon.
