Seeing doubles... Macca’s grandson dates Reese’s girl
DO this young couple look familiar? If so it is no surprise.
She is Ava, the daughter of Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon, and he is Arthur, the grandson of Sir Paul McCartney.
And like the offspring of many other celebs, they are the epitome of the term family resemblance.
Ava, in London with her film star mother, and her beau, son of Paul’s daughter Mary, were enjoying a night out in London’s Mayfair.
Happy
The two, both aged 18, looked happy and in high spirits as they strolled through the capital’s streets before heading to celebrity haunt Sketch.
One onlooker said: “You could see how excited they both were.
“They were clearly enjoying being out and about on the town. And it wasn’t exactly difficult to tell who their famous families were.”
Ava’s Oscar-winning mother, aged 41, took to Instagram to share a snap of her daughter with Arthur on their date.
She captioned the post: “Everything’s rosy in London!”
Ava and Reese, whose movie credits include Legally Blonde, Walk the Line and Wild, also posed together at the European premiere of Witherspoon’s new film A Wrinkle In Time.
The actress beamed as she stood beside her eldest daughter, whose father is film actor Ryan Phillippe, 43.
Arthur meanwhile joined his own family for a separate screening of new movie My Generation, a documentary about the 1960s starring Sir Michael Caine.
The teen, Paul’s first grandson, posed with the ex-Beatle, now 75, and photographer Mary, 48, his eldest daughter, at the event.
Arthur is enrolled at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, the Ivy League institution which is the alma mater of five US presidents.
Macca has been spotted visiting and no doubt students have noted the resemblance between the star and his grandson, whose father is producer Alistair Donald.
It is striking but not exactly unknown. Tennis’s Boris Becker, 50, has a daughter, Anna, 17, who is unmistakebly his.
Lennon Gallagher, 18, is the spitting image of Oasis star father Liam, 45.
Hollywood’s Cindy Crawford, 52, has a daughter Kaia Gerber, 16, who could almost be her double.
And rocker Mick Jagger, 74, has passed on his looks to son Lucas, 18, by Brazilian model Luciana Gimenez Morad, 48.
