Hosting award ceremonies was a family affair for Witherspoon, who previously brought up a son Deacon Philip, 20, as her plus one to the Golden Globes last week. Witherspoon wore a strapless black dress with an asymmetrical blush-colored twist top and matching black heels, and paired the look with a diamond choker necklace, diamond earrings and a bracelet. Deacon, for his part, wore a black tuxedo.
While walking the red carpet, Deacon made headlines when he sweetly ran his hand over a lock of Witherspoon's hair to put it back in place.
Before hitting the Golden Globes red carpet, Witherspoon and Deacon attended Vanity Fair's pre-Golden Globes party in Los Angeles. She wore a sparkling red dress with matching red heels and a black jacket, while Deacon wore a navy blue suit with a white shirt.
Last week's awards ceremony was the first Witherspoon attended since her divorce Jim Toth in March. The former couple, who share son Tennessee, 11, married following her split from ex Ryan Filip. (Witherspoon shares Deacon and Ava with Ryan, 49.)
After Witherspoon settled her divorce from Toth, she shared a sweet smile with Ava as they leaned against each other while drinking wine.
“Summer nights with my favorite daughter,” Witherspoon captioned the post in August 2023.
Ava, for her part, opened up about her mother in the comments section. “I love you!” she wrote.
The post came hours after Witherspoon and Toth's divorce settlement was revealed. According to legal paperwork obtained by We weeklythe couple will have equal shared custody of their 10-year-old son and split his expenses equally.
The former couple has not filed for child or spousal support and has filed a motion to dismiss the need for a parenting seminar because they have practiced “effective co-parenting” since the end of their relationship. The couple also kept their own cars and bank accounts.
