Ryan Phillippe And Reese Witherspoon's Daughter Hilariously Reacts To Being Told Her Boyfriend Looks Like Her Dad

Ava Phillippe and her boyfriend Dakota Brubaker were visibly weirded out after someone in the comments of their lip-syncing TikTok video pointed out that Brubaker looks like Ryan Phillippe, Ava's dad.

We all know that it's genetics at play when we see a kid grow up looking distinctly like one of their parents.

But what's it called when your partner also looks like one of your parents?


Without making it sound too weird or gross, Ava Phillippe and her boyfriend, Dakota Brubaker, found themselves in an odd but funny situation when TikTokers began to compare them to her parents, calling them the new "Ryan and Reese."

25-year-old Phillippe is the daughter of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe, who began dating when Witherspoon was 21, only to go on and film Cruel Intentions together—when Witherspoon was pregnant with Ava.

Since then, Phillippe's videos have frequently gone viral, with fellow TikTokers commenting on how much she looks like her mom, and how certain facial expressions make her look like her dad. But since she moved in with her boyfriend, Brubaker, the comments have certainly gotten wilder.

Standing in their kitchen, the pair filmed a TikTok, lip-syncing a Ke$ha song with Brubaker popping out from behind Phillippe, singing into a hairbrush.

TikTokers instead fixated on Brubaker's look.

Seeing the pair of twenty-somethings threw fans of Cruel Intentions straight back into the film. Some claimed that Brubaker looked exactly like Ryan Phillippe, while others went so far as to say that the pair could be the new "Ryan and Reese."

In response, the pair shared a follow-up TikTok, pinning a "Ryan and Reese" comment as a text overlay.

Brubaker leaned into the frame, wearing a black turtle neck sweater and silver wire-rim glasses, like Ryan Phillippe did in Cruel Intentions, and both shook their head "no."

No one's saying that Phillippe and Brubaker have to be the new Reese and Ryan, or that they're going to follow the same path. But it is uncanny.

Trump Ripped After Griping About 'Sissy' New NFL Kickoff Rule In Unhinged Rant

President Donald Trump was criticized after he complained about the NFL's new "Dynamic Kickoff" rule that is designed to make playing football safer, calling it "sissy" football in a Monday morning post on Truth Social.

Under the previous rules, kickoffs began at the kicking team’s 35-yard line, with the goal of sending the ball as far as possible to pin the opposing offense deep in its own territory. The receiving team would try to advance the ball, which would often lead to high-speed collisions as players sprinted directly at each other.

Vance hosted a special episode of Kirk's podcast to attack what he referred to as “the lunatics in American politics" and said without any evidence that the suspect in Kirk's killing was motivated by far-left ideology.
