Ava Phillippe Reacts to Fans Saying Her Boyfriend Looks Like Her Dad

It’s a tale as old as time on the internet: celebrity kids who look just like their famous parents. But for Ava Phillippe, the conversation just got a little too close for comfort. Fans are convinced her boyfriend, Dakota Brubaker, is the spitting image of her father, Ryan Phillippe, and their commentary sent the 25-year-old model and actress into a hilarious, and very public, spiral.

The online chatter reached a fever pitch this week when one fan commented on a video of Phillippe and Brubaker, writing, “Close enough. Welcome back Reese and Ryan.” The comment, referencing her parents' iconic '90s romance, did not go unnoticed by Phillippe.

One thing we know about Hugh Jackman: he does not care about the beauty of his partners.

Only the male ones. He has no use for his female partners, except as cover for his "extracurricular activities" with other men.

The endless sexualising of the father in this scenario is kind of strange.

To return to the subject of this thread: No, he does not.

Ryan is much better looking than Dakota.

And it seems like Dakota is styling himself to look like Ryan, on purpose.

Yeah, if her father had been in a debilitating accident which busted his face and had undergone multiple reconstructive plastic surgeries.

With her two siblings, Ava is going to be one of her billionaire mother's three heirs, as I'm sure this new boyfriend is aware. He is probably dyeing his hair blond (whether consciously or unconsciously) to make her think of her father and bind her closer to him.

Hey, it worked with Meghan Markle wearing bluebell-scented perfume (Diana's favorite) to attract Prince Harry

Yikes. that pic of Dakota at r8 is the polar opposite of Ryan.

One is gorgeous, the other is FUG. i think we know which is which.

Exactly what I was thinking, R10.

This guy is a total grifter.

r10 and r12 - except it would repel her, if that's what she's actually doing (consciously or unconsciously).

It's been reported that she is estranged from her father and doesn't talk to him anymore.

Yes, r14, Rador Online is totally reliable. Of course it isn't all made-up bullshit. /s

r15 good Lord, what a contrary ass you are...that's just one of the first links with an article about that I found. I've read it at multiple other sources. They are estranged and she wants nothing to do with him.

But whatever.

Dakota is repulsive.

by Anonymousreply 17June 13, 2025 6:26 PM

No resemblance at all.

Wait until her rent checks start bouncing.

Wasn't she bi or fluid a minute ago?

R19 Ryan, do you even have a pot to piss in? Everyone knows Reese wore the pants in that marriage.

Mommy is a billionaire.

I'm fine, thanks.

Dakota in the black turtleneck reminds me of Halston in that one shot. He looks handsome in that one but looks not so great in the other.

She looks plain as hell.

by Anonymousreply 23June 14, 2025 2:33 AM

At first glance of that photo, I’d have imagined friends would’ve thought her boyfriend reminded them of her mother (?). 🤷‍♂️

by Anonymousreply 24June 14, 2025 2:36 AM

I think Ava looks like Ryan, and Deacon looks like Reese, but that's just me.
