As much as we love following along with our favorite celebrities' careers, we love following along with their personal lives even more — and we're not the only ones who feel this way, considering how many of us get totally wrapped up in our favorite famous couples' relationships. Over the years, we've seen these beloved stars grow and even have children, and sometimes, those children end up looking exactly like them.
We truly get joy out of watching actors, musicians, and entertainers begin their parenthood journey — especially when they share photos of their fam with the rest of us. Thanks to social media, we don't have to wait for paparazzi pics to show up before we see how these little ones are growing, and that means we have now discovered that a ton of these celebrity kids are basically just younger versions of their parents.
From Reese Witherspoon's fam to kids of stars like Snooki and Nikki Bella, here are all the children who look just like their famous parents. If these people ever need someone to play a younger version of themselves, they don't need to look any further than their own offspring.
Gwyneth Paltrow & Apple Martin
It's wild to think that Apple Martin is already 16 years old — it seems like just yesterday Gwyneth Paltrow and ex-husband Chris Martin's unusual baby name choice was making headlines! She's growing up to look more like her mother every day, especially with those eyes and blond hair.
Reese Witherspoon & Ava Phillippe
Looking at Reese Witherspoon and Ava Phillippe (who is now 21 years old — where has the time gone?), it must be like looking in the mirror for Reese when she looks at her daughter. Reese's career has gone on long enough that we can remember exactly what this Legally Blonde star looked like when she was around Ava's age, and it was basically this. So wild!
Reese Witherspoon & Deacon Phillippe
At this point, it goes without saying that those Witherspoon genes are strong. Not only does Ava look just like her mom, but so does her younger brother, Deacon Phillippe. And now that Reese's youngest, Tennessee Toth (who she welcomed with husband Jim Toth), is starting to get a little older, he's starting to look more and more like her, too.
Jay-Z & Beyoncé
There are definitely moments where we can see Beyoncé in Blue Ivy, but more often than not, it's pretty clear that this little lady heavily favors dad Jay-Z. As for her younger siblings, twins Sir and Rumi? Well, we'll have to let them get a little bit older before we decide if they look more like mom or dad.
Mark Conseulos & Michael Conseulos
Sorry, Kelly Ripa, but this guy definitely looks just like his dad! At 23 years old, Michael Conseulos is simply the younger version of Mark Conseulos, so it's no surprise that's exactly who he played when he guest starred on Riverdale as a young Hiram Lodge. Two handsome dudes!
Chrissy Teigen & Luna Stephens
Practically from day one, Chrissy Teigen and Luna Stephens have been twinning. The older Luna gets, the more she looks like a tiny version of her mama … and considering the fact that Chrissy is absolutely gorgeous, that's definitely not a bad thing. These two already make an unstoppable pair.
John Legend & Miles Stephens
While we're talking about this beautiful famous family, we'd be totally remiss if we didn't also mention that somehow, it worked out so that Miles Stephens looked exactly like dad John Legend. Now that Miles is turning 3 years old in 2021, we hope we find out if he inherited his dad's musical talents, too.
Prince George & Prince William
Princess Charlotte looks just like Queen Elizabeth, Prince Louis looks so much like his mom, and Prince George? The spitting image of dad Prince William, of course (who, in turn, resembles his dad, Prince Charles). Those royal genes don't lie, especially when it comes to the line of succession to the throne!
Courteney Cox & Coco Arquette
It's crazy to think that we went from watching Courteney Cox as Monica on Friends to watching her become a full-blown A-lister and a mom … and even crazier to think that her daughter (whose dad is Courteney's ex David Arquette), Coco Arquette, is now 16 years old and every bit as beautiful as her mom. Those who follow Courteney on Instagram already know that they even share clothes!
Uma Thurman & Maya Hawke
Everyone's minds were collectively blown when they realized that Stranger Things newcomer Maya Hawke was actually the 22-year-old daughter of Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke. But honestly, with a resemblance like this, we should have known all along. She's like the perfect blend of her parents, but favors Uma just a bit more.
Kate Hudson & Rani Rose
People talk a lot about how much Kate Hudson looks like her mom, Goldie Hawn, but never enough about how Kate's daughter, Rani Rose (who is now 2), looks like her mom! She already has Kate's blond hair on lock, and when we see all of her silly facial expressions, we only see Kate, too.
Hilary Duff & Banks Koma
Hilary Duff's daughter with Matthew Koma, Banks Koma, is only 2 years old, but it's already easy to see that she has inherited all of her mom's good looks. We have to wonder if baby No. 3 will take after her mom just like Banks. (And yes, while we're on the topic, Hilary's older son, Luca, looks a lot like her, too!)
Demi Moore & Scout Willis
For years, people have talked about how much Demi Moore and Rumer Willis look alike, but let's shine a spotlight on one of her other kids for a minute. Can we talk about the fact that Scout Willis is growing up to look exactly like her mom? If she always keeps her hair like this, eventually, we won't be able to tell them apart.
Damon Wayans & Damon Wayans Jr.
This photo proves two things to us: comedian Damon Wayans never ages, and that he and his son, Damon Wayans Jr., who played Coach on New Girl, are practically twins! Sure, Marlon looks like his dad, too, but there's no comparing it to the freaky resemblance that these two share.
Jessa Duggar & Ivy Seewald
Don't get us wrong — we think that all of Jessa Duggar's kids basically look like carbon copies of her (sorry, Ben Seewald!). But out of Spurgeon, Henry, and Ivy Seewald, Ivy has definitely got to be the kid who looks the most like her mama. Those eyes! Those curls! She's one gorgeous baby girl.
Snooki & Giovanna LaValle
It's been a blast watching Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi go from the life of the party on Jersey Shore to a sweet and loving mom, and one of the best parts of that is seeing how much her daughter, Giovanna LaValle, looks exactly like her. Seriously, has there ever been a mom and daughter pair who looked this alike?
Scott Disick & Mason Disick
Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian aren't together anymore, but they certainly made some adorable kids … and of all three of them, Mason Disick — who is now already 11 years old — definitely looks the most like his dad. It becomes more and more obvious as he gets older!
Lori Loughlin & Olivia Jade Giannulli
This mother/daughter duo has been in the news a lot lately (and we all know it hasn't been all positive), but one thing that people can't deny is how much they look alike. Olivia Jade Giannulli is essentially a carbon copy of her mom, and it's like looking at Lori Loughlin in her younger Full House days as Aunt Becky.
Gordon Ramsay & Oscar Ramsay
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay and his wife, Tana, have managed to crank out a brood of beautiful blond children, but no one looks as much like their dad as their son, Oscar, does. From the disgruntled facial expressions to the blond hair and the blue eyes, he's a mini Gordon through and through.
Artem Chigvintsev & Matteo Chigvintsev
All eyes have been on Nikki Bella and Dancing with the Stars pro Artem Chigvintsev as they became parents for the first time in 2020 when their son, Matteo Chigvintsev, was born, and it's striking to seee how much he looks like his dad — especially considering how strong those Bella genes are!
