Reese Witherspoon was a young mom, giving birth to her first child with then-husband Ryan Phillippe when she was 23 years old. She is now a mother of three. During a 2015 interview with Glamour, she commented: “I don’t think there’s been an hour of my life since Ava was born that I don’t think of my kids. I call it my CNN ticker tape: Is Ava OK? Yes. Is Deacon OK? Yes. Is Tennessee OK? Yes. Back to Ava.”

She kept acting while raising her family and balances work and family. “My mom worked, and I think it’s good for kids to see women working and being successful,” she told InStyle in 2017.
