Reese Witherspoon’s daughter,
Ava Phillippe, recently shared insights about her romantic preferences on Instagram. Witherspoon, 47, co-parents Ava and her son Deacon with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe and has another son, Tennessee, from her previous marriage to Jim Toth. Shortly before their 12th anniversary, Witherspoon and Toth announced their divorce, emphasizing their commitment to family.
Unlike her mother, who gained fame later, Ava grew up in the spotlight. Witherspoon values guidance from industry friends and encourages her children to explore their identities. She admires Ava’s grounded nature and passion for making a difference.
At 24, Ava, often noted for her striking resemblance to her mother, has built a career of her own. Engaging with her Instagram followers, she responded to a question about her romantic interests by saying, “I’m attracted to… people!” and added, “Gender is whatever.” While she didn’t label her sexuality outright, her statement aligns with pansexuality, which describes attraction regardless of gender.
Since around 2019, Ava has reportedly been in a relationship with Owen Mahoney, a fellow UC Berkeley student, though their current status remains uncertain.
