I'm with my husband eating at a BBQ place and I swear I see a lady with her husband and kid," TikTok user Noha Hamid said, presumably referring to Witherspoon's husband, Jim Toth, and their son, Tennessee Toth. The actor also has two older kids from a previous marriage.
She continued: "I'm like, that looks just like a celebrity and I'm trying to think who... and I'm like, 'Who? Carrie Underwood?'"
