Chances are, you’ve probably watched at least a couple films starring Reese Witherspoon. She’s had a long career in Hollywood, appearing in over 40 movies throughout the years.
Despite this, her three children have never really watched any of them. For those who don’t know, she shares Ava, 25, and Deacon, 21, with her ex Ryan Phillippe. She also has a 12-year-old son named Tennessee with ex Tim Roth.
During an interview with E! News, Witherspoon said her kids don’t care about her career at all…
My children actively avoid my work. I literally had my son tell me last night that he did not know I made a living being funny. He was like, ‘I just didn’t realize. You’re funny at home — sort of.’
She did get her youngest to watch her latest comedy film, You’re Cordially Invited. She stars in the movie with Will Ferrell, and Reese claims her son was shocked by the audience laughing.
When he sat through the movie, he was like, ‘People were laughing at your stuff,’ I was like, ‘Yeah.’ He told me kids his age won’t want to go see it because we’re old. That’s what he said to me: ‘You’re old. But they’ll love it when they do watch it with their parents.’
Geez… at least he’s honest? That’s a good quality to have.
