Reese Witherspoon weighs down her daughter’s budding romance.

On Monday June 21st, the star’s 21-year-old daughter, Ava PhillippeShe went to Instagram to share a touching picture of herself and her boyfriend Owen Mahoney on vacation in Austin, Texas. The couple had apparently hoped to see the bats soar from under the city’s bridges, which is a famous tourist attraction, but sadly it wasn’t meant to be.

“The bats felt shy … so here’s a picture of us instead,” Ava captioned the recording.

In the photo, she is wearing a red polka dot outfit while he is wearing a faded button-down denim shirt. Ava and Owen both attend UC Berkeley and have made their relationship public since 2019.

One person who is clearly a huge fan of the pairing is Reese, who shares Ava and the 17-year-old deacon with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe, and stocks Tennessee, 8, with husband Jim Toth.

“These two,” commented the 45-year-old Oscar winner, adding a heart-eye emoji.
