But I would say the celebrity with the strongest genes is, without a doubt, Reese Witherspoon.

Reese went on Today and Jenna Bush Hager told Reese she is practically *twins* with her daughter, Ava.

"Wait, y'all are twins!," said Jenna.

"She and I don't see it that much," said Reese.

"Don't see it that much"??????

Huh?!

If I had to pick ONE celebrity who looked exactly like their spawn, I would, without a doubt, pick Reese and her daughter Ava.

And the pictures prove it:

Scrolling through Ava's Instagram is a constant, "who am I looking at?!"

So, yeah. Just felt like I needed to say something because they are literally the first people that come to mind when I think of "like mother like daughter."

I'll leave you with this cute pic of three generations of Witherspoons.
