Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe’s son, Deacon, has shared his lavish living space in a viral TikTok.
Deacon, 20, was approached by viral creator Caleb Simpson, who has amassed over 7 million followers by taking viewers on tours of people’s living spaces.
Simpson asked Deacon, currently studying at New York University, to show off his home, and he agreed, claiming he had some time between classes.
If you were expecting to see the usual university digs, like milk crates used as bedside tables and a tower of used beer cans, well, you would be disappointed.
Deacon is living in a fancy New York-style loft, which looks less like a low-budget rental and more like the kind of apartment that would get a spread in a home living magazine.
Think sky-high ceilings, spiral staircase and giant art hanging on the wall. Yes, art, not posters.
His bedroom was less one flat, yellowing pillow and a record player and more gorgeously designed with a colour scheme.
Interestingly, Deacon, who has already released an album before even graduating college, does have two housemates to share his fancy space with.
How much does he pay?
Well, he dodged that question.
“West Village prices, man,” he said.
There were a few hilarious moments where Deacon tried to act like his house was humble and flawed.
He joked that Simpson had not hit his head on the staircase and poked fun at the door being hard to close in the bathroom.
Naturally, people in the comments pointed out that Deacon’s college living situation was probably thanks to his wealthy parents.
“Occupation: student parents: Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe,” one wrote.
“You did not just ask Deacon Witherspoon how much he pays in rent. Bro, as if he knows,” another argued.
“How much do you pay? The correct answer is ask my mum and dad,” another cracked.
Still, not everyone saw it as an opportunity to roast the rich kid; some pointed out that, although his digs were pretty nice, he was clearly trying to have an average youthful experience by having housemates.
“It’s a nice apartment, but he could have something much fancier, I’m sure. He seems like a great kid,” someone said.
“I don’t get the hate. Reese and Ryan are good parents, and Deacon is talented,” another defended
“Are rich people supposed to have their children live in squalor?” another questioned.
