Reese Witherspoon’s daughter Ava Phillippe attends Gerry Turner’s ‘Golden Bachelor’ finale

Ava Phillippe is a Bachelor Nation fan. The daughter of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe had audiences doing a double take as she was spotted at the live taping of Gerry Turner’s “Golden Bachelor” finale on Thursday.

“Am I crazy or is Reese Witherspoons daughter at the golden bachelor finale??? #TheGoldenBachelor,” one viewer wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

ABC executive Robert Mills confirmed that Ava, 24, was indeed at the show — and she brought along a relative.

“This is her,” he tweeted. “Her mother Betty is here as well. #TheGoldenBachelor,” he added, referring to Witherspoon’s mom, Mary Elizabeth “Betty” Witherspoon.

The ABC series Instagram account also shared a photo of the pair smiling for the camera as they sat front row to find out who Turner, 72, ultimately chose between his final two: Theresa Nist, 70, and Leslie Fhima, 64.

“So many friends in the audience tonight, and we’re all emotionally bonded after this,” the caption read.

Ava and Betty were in good company on Thursday night. Other stars in the crowd included Jennifer Love Hewitt and first Bachelorette Trista Sutter and husband Ryan Sutter.

As the world learned together, Turner proposed to Theresa and the couple plan to have a televised wedding on Jan. 4, 2024, titled “The Golden Wedding.”

“We are going to get married. We’re going to do it as quickly as we can, because at our age, we don’t have a lot of time to waste,” joked Turner to host Jesse Palmer on Thursday night. “So as quickly as we can put together a wedding plan, we’re getting married.”

The newly-engaged pair opened up about why they belonged together during their emotional proposal.

“I know how sometimes it feels like the whole world thinks love is only for the young, and quite honestly, at the age of 70, I was beginning to feel that myself,” she said in Costa Rica in the pre-taped footage. “After Billy died, I was at the point where I thought I’m going to live the rest of my life alone, until I met you and I saw you smile and I thought, oh my God! What am I feeling here?”

She continued, “I’m so madly in love with you, Gerry, and I feel that for us, life isn’t over, the best is yet to come.”

Turner, for his part, ended with a teasing joke — which ultimately worried his now-fiancee.

“I came to the realization that you’re not the right person for me to live with,” he said, with a very long pause.

After Nist appeared concerned, he finally added: “You’re the person that I can’t live without. I love you 1,000%.”
