Can you guess who this nepo baby is?
It’s Deacon Phillippe, the son of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe!
Deacon was seen taking a leisurely stroll in New York City on Sunday.
A pair of headphones handy, he appeared to be listening to his favorite music.
The star also carried a water bottle for the road.
He wore a burgundy charades hoodie and white jeans along with a snazzy pair of sneakers.
His parents met on the set of Cruel Intentions in 1998 and tied the knot the following year.
They split up after six years of marriage and their divorce was finalized in 2008.
Reese and Ryan also have daughter Ava, 25, together.
Deacon graduated from Mountain High School in June 2022 and began studying at NYU that fall.
Following his first year at college living in a dormitory, Deacon shifted residences to an expensive flat in the West Village, sharing it with two of his closest companions.
Deacon faced online backlash in 2023 after showing off his luxurious abode on TikTok.
In a video that went viral, the owner granted permission to social media influencer Caleb Simpson to display the inside of his two-story residence (apartment), which is known for its unique design.
Critics accused Deacon of being a product of nepotism and a trust fund recipient, as they believed that the apartment depicted in the story was beyond the reach of an ordinary 20-something college student.
Outside of his studies, Deacon is an aspiring actor and singer.
He made his TV acting debut in Netflix’s Never Have I Ever in 2022.
He made an appearance in two episodes of the comedy-drama series produced by Mindy Kaling, who is known for her work on “The Office”. Additionally, he is scheduled to feature in the upcoming comedy titled “4 Kids Walk Into a Bank”.
Deacon released his debut album, A New Earth, in 2023.
