Reese Witherspoon’s daughter and look-alike, Ava Phillippe, marked her mom’s 49th birthday by sharing a sweet throwback photo.

“Love you so so much,” she added, finishing the message with a red heart emoji.

The nostalgic photo showed a young Ava snuggled up next to her mom. The two were lounging in a leaf-strewn grass field, with Witherspoon flashing a bright smile in the candid moment.

The Legally Blonde star later reshared the image to her own Story, adding a teary-eyed emoji.

She also has a 12-year-old son, Tennessee, from her second marriage to Jim Toth.

Witherspoon and Toth, 54, announced their separation in 2023 after more than a decade together.

“We’ve had so many beautiful years and are now moving forward with deep love, respect, and kindness for what we’ve built together,” the pair shared in a joint statement.

Since then, Witherspoon has quietly moved on with German businessman Oliver Haarmann.

Their romance became public in September when the pair were spotted showing PDA during an outing in New York City.

Though she tends to keep her relationships low-key, Witherspoon often shares moments with her children on social media or brings them to public events.

In August, she brought Deacon along to the Blink Twice premiere, where they looked happy on the red carpet.

She’s also posted glimpses of cozy moments with Ava, including sipping wine together and celebrating Christmas as a family.
