Ava Phillipe has opened up on her sexual preference and has made it clear that she is attracted to people and for her 'gender is whatever.' The 22-year-old a few months back made her relationship Instagram official with college boyfriend Owen Mahoney in 2019, after they met at UC Berkeley. Mahoney even joined the family on a tropical vacation last summer after earning mom Reese's approval.
Reese Witherspoon's Daughter Ava Phillippe Says She Is Attracted To People And 'Gender Is Whatever'
The 22-year old daughter of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Philip has opened up about her sexuality.
Ava Phillippe recently hosted an 'Ask Me Anything' Q&A with fans on Instagram few days back.
In one of the questions posed by curious fans, Ava was asked: "Do u like boys or girls?"
Without wasting time or giving a vague response, Ava was clear to write back: "I'm attracted to… people! (Gender is whatever)," she wrote alongside a smiley selfie in blue eyeshadow that she shared with her 996,000 Instagram followers.
Only some time back, Ava previously made her relationship Instagram official with college boyfriend Owen Mahoney in 2019, after they met at UC Berkeley.
Mahoney even joined the Witherspoon family on a family vacation last summer after getting approval from mom Reese.
Reese, 45, who also shares son Deacon, 18, with ex-husband Ryan, 47, has been very open about the challenges she has faced with raising her children in the spotlight.
"It's an odd situation because I didn't grow up famous. So [Ava is] living an experience that I did not have, and so are my sons," she said in November during an interview with InStyle.
"We are lucky enough to have friends who grew up in Hollywood and can help give them advice on how to navigate.
"Ava is so down-to-earth. She wants to do great things in the world. She's studying and learning and trying to find herself. It's a big thing in life to try different things and figure out what is really your path," the proude mom added.
Reese is also a mom to nine-year-old son Tennessee James with husband Jim Toth, 51, whom she married in 2011.
Back in September, Reese celebrated Ava's 22nd birthday and penned a heartfelt note for her daughter: "Happy Birthday to my sweet little girl…excuse me… I mean my adult daughter!!! Words can't describe how proud I am of you," Reese wrote.
"You have grown into an extraordinary person who cares so much about the world around her. I am so lucky to have you light up my life. I love you, Ava!!"
