Reese Witherspoon fans confused as daughter looks just like her in swimsuit snap
Reese Witherspoon's daughter looks exactly like her mum in a seriously sizzling swimsuit snap that she has shared on Instagram.
Ava Phillipe is the Legally Blonde star's 23-year-old daughter, whom she shares with ex Ryan Phillippe, whom Reese was married to from 1999 until 2008. Ava started her senior year at UC Berkeley last autumn, with the blonde bombshell now a fully fledged college graduate.
Although she not long graduated college, Ava seems to be keen on pursuing a modelling career, with her recently landing a brand partnership with intimate apparel brand as the first step in her quest to conquer the modelling world. Taking to Instagram in her latest post to promote the partnership, Ava looked just like her mum as she sizzled in a swimsuit.
Taking to the photo-sharing platform to promote the brand with her one million followers, Ava penned: "Soaking up the second half of Summer with Aerie," with the caption accompanying a stunning photograph of the beaming blonde bombshell lounging on the edge of a swimming pool.
Ava looked incredible as she posed up a storm while laying down on a towel. Parading her figure, Ava showed off her svelte frame in a blue one piece bathing suit, which cheekily bared some skin thanks to the cut-out detailing at the front.

The way in which Ava posed ensured her small and delicate inkings were on display, with the budding model showing off. She has one tatt that is in the shape of a cinema ticket and says "admit one", while another appears to be of three seals.
Fans were quick to swoon over the snap, with one person writing: "Had to do a double take thinking this was Reese." While a second said: "You cannot deny you and your mum are twins."
Reese met Ava's dad when she was 21, with the couple getting engaged in 1998 before marrying in June 1999. They welcomed their first child Ava Elizabeth Phillippe, on September 9, 1999, and their son Deacon Reese Phillippe, who was born on October 23, 2003.
The couple announced their separation in 2006, with them filing for divorce shortly after. Their divorce was finalised in 2008, with both parents sharing joint custody of their children.
In the past Ava spoke about how her parents had always encouraged her to choose a path that's right for her. Speaking to E! at the time, she said that it was "such a privilege to have parents that support you in that way and to want you to be who you truly are meant to be. So I think I’m trying to do that".
