The second Sunday in the month of May is almost upon us, so we all know what that means — it’s time to celebrate the most important women in our lives! Speaking of Mother’s Day, when was the last time you did a side-by-side comparison of your face and your mom’s? It’s alright if you don’t notice any resemblance, as it’s always more evident to those observing from the outside. However, we promise you, the resemblance is very much there. If you doubt us, take a look at our favourite celebrity mother-daughter look alikes down below. It’s truly uncanny, just like you and your mom!
Celebrity Mother-Daughter Look Alikes
Contents
1. Reese Witherspoon and Ava Phillippe
Talk about seeing double! Can you believe that the person sitting next to Academy Award-winning actress Reese Witherspoon in the picture above is not a mirror image? It’s actually her daughter, 24-year-old model Ava Phillippe. Witherspoon’s first child out of two with her ex-husband, actor Ryan Phillippe, Ava has appeared in Rodarte’s Fall 2018 look book, an ad for Draper James with Witherspoon, modelled for Beyoncé’s Ivy Park and became the face of Pat McGrath Labs’ Bridgerton collection in 2021. While Ava is uncertain about pursuing acting like both her parents, we’re betting that she will in the near future.
2. Cindy Crawford and Kaia Garber
The iconic 90’s supermodel Cindy Crawford has a daughter, and it’s absolutely insane how much she resembles her, especially in Crawford’s younger years. All that’s missing is the iconic mole on her upper lip! Twenty-two-year-old actress and model Kaia Gerber’s first modelling gig was for Versace at the age of ten, which sounds insane but is par for the course when your mother is Miss Crawford. Since then, Gerber has solidified herself as the most successful nepotism model of our generation. Will she outdo her legendary mother? Only time will tell.
3. Beyoncé and Blue Ivy Carter
We admit that when Blue Ivy Carter was a toddler, we couldn’t quite see any resemblance to her mother, the First Lady of Music, AKA Beyoncé. In her younger years, Blue Ivy looked more like her famous father instead, rapper and music mogul Jay-Z. Even so, twelve years have passed since her widely publicised birth and the pre-teen version of Blue Ivy is looking more and more like her mother every day. She doesn’t just resemble her mother in looks, as Blue Ivy’s dancing stint in Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour proved that she too has all the makings of a superstar.
4. Monica Bellucci and Deva Cassel
In her prime, no one could rival Italian actress, model, and sex symbol Monica Bellucci’s face card. It’s possible that she might have turned weary of always being the most beautiful woman in every room she entered, so she gave birth to a replica of herself, Deva Cassel. Deva’s father is French actor Vincent Cassel, who was married to Bellucci for 14 years before their separation. The nineteen-year-old Cassel is now a successful model who has walked for high fashion brands including Jacquemus, Courrèges, and Dolce & Gabbana. When do you think Deva will make her acting debut?
5. Lisa Bonet and Zoë Kravitz
Actress Zoë Kravitz is the daughter of rock star Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet and honestly, we can’t really tell which one of her famous parents she resembles the most. Since her bone structure and skin tone are eerily similar to her mother’s, we’re going to give this one to Bonet. We love how closely knit the family remains, even though Bonet and Kravitz divorced in 1993. Since Zoë Kravitz made her mark with iconic movie roles such as Leta Lestrange in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018) and Catwoman in The Batman (2022), it’s safe to say that she stepped out of her famous parents’ shadows long ago.
6. Uma Thurman and Maya Hawke
Speaking of someone with equally famous parents, twenty-five-year-old Maya Hawke is the daughter of actors Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. However, it’s hard to tell if Mr. Hawke really had anything to do with Maya’s birth, as she is the spitting image of her mother. If Maya were to dress up as one of Thurman’s iconic movie characters, like Mia Wallace in Pulp Fiction (1994) or The Bride in Kill Bill: Volume 1 and 2 (2003, 2004), people would think that Thurman somehow went back in time! Today, Maya stars in Netflix’s Stranger Things and is a singer-songwriter with three albums to her name.
