The similarity is truly eery.

As people have kids, it only makes sense that they pass on their genes and members of the same family look alike. Celebrity families such as the Kardashian/Jenners are known for their strong genepool with Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Kylie and Kendall looking more like twins than sisters most of the time. Two people of a different famous family that are hitting the headlines for their incredible are Reese Witherspoon and her daughter Ava Phillippe. While the duo have been complimented before for their similar looks, a new picture has emerged which has literally stopped the world because of the beauty the mother and daughter share. As Reese's first child Ava Phillippe is only a tender 16 years of age, the cute snap has left tongues wagging as 40-year-old Reese looks like the teenager's twin. Reese posted the incredible picture to Twitter, where people lost their minds at the identical faces of Reese and Ava. Titling the snap "mother daughter time" the photo shows an apparantly ageless Reese with her pretty teenage daughter. WHAT is Reese's secret?
