FemaleFirst reported that the actress revealed that her four-year-old son Deacon, whom she had with her ex-husband, Ryan Phillippe, is not interested in becoming an actor, but moreso a pizza delivery boy.
Witherspoon stated, "Deacon wants to be a pizza delivery boy. Not that there is anything wrong with that but it’s hard to see how it could be a career as such. My eight-year-old daughter Ava wants to be a scientist but they are both at the stage where it changes from one week to the next. Neither has said they want to be actors but you never know."
