Hey there, friends! Let's talk about how sweet Reese Witherspoon's family truly is. We already knew Reese loves dogs, but it turns out her son Tennessee does too. Recently, this adorable 7-year-old decided to cozy up with their bulldog, Lou. He lounged right into Lou’s bed, burying his face in the little pup’s soft fur. Can we just pause for a moment to appreciate that level of cuteness?
Reese, who’s 43 now, couldn’t help but share this heartwarming moment on Instagram. On Monday, March 9, she posted a picture of Tennessee snuggling with Lou and captioned it with pure joy: “Cuddle puddle! #louthebulldog.” This sweet snapshot reminds us all how much love and warmth pets bring into our lives.

Reese, the beloved star of Legally Blonde, shares Tennessee with her husband, Jim Toth. She also raises her older kids, Ava Phillippe, who's 20, and Deacon Phillippe, who's 16, with her ex-husband, Ryan Phillippe. During the Winter Television Critics Association Press Tour for the Apple TV+ series The Morning Show, Reese opened up about how much parenting has transformed her life.
“Having kids completely changed my world view,” she shared in January. “It made me a better person, honestly—it humbled me. And it really made me think about who I see as representations of women on film, how women are perceived, and how women are written for. It also made me realize how crucial it is who directs and creates these stories.”
Now, let’s talk about the challenges. For Reese, having Ava at the young age of 22 was tough, but she wouldn’t trade the experience for anything. “Having little kids is so physical, and it’s really hard on your body,” she admitted on her Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine YouTube page in September 2019. “I’m glad I had my kids when I did—young. I had one at 23, one at 27, and then again at 37. Oh my gosh, having a baby at 37 was so much harder. But this is just me being real.”
