Dec 11 2019 - 7:10pm

Ava Phillippe was on hand to support her mom, Reese Witherspoon, at The Hollywood Reporter's annual Women in Entertainment breakfast [1] in LA on Wednesday. The 20-year-old student and her 16-year-old brother, Deacon Phillippe [2], were dressed to impress as they posed for photos with Reese and her husband, Jim Toth [3], on the red carpet and inside the event. Clad in a long-sleeved red lace gown, Ava looked every bit the spitting image of her famous mom [4], who covers THR's Women in Entertainment issue [5] and was honored at Wednesday's fete for her achievements in acting, producing, and activism. Others on the list include Michelle Obama [6], Shonda Rhimes, Oprah Winfrey [7], and Reese's The Morning Show [8] costar and longtime pal Jennifer Aniston [9].

Ava shared a sweet family snap on Instagram with an even sweeter shout-out to her mom [10]. "Major congratulations to my mama, who received an award today for her leadership in the industry that she cares so deeply about improving," Ava wrote. "I'm so grateful to have a mom this thoughtful, passionate, and courageous, and I'm glad other people can recognize how special she is!"
