His debut song is out now
Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's son Deacon Phillippe might only be 16-years-old, but he's already released his first song, and it features the amazing Scottish singer, Nina Nesbitt.
Deacon, who goes by his first name for his musical work has released 'Long Run' and it's currently doing very well in the US.
'Long Run' sees Deacon take on the role of producer on this new song, with many YouTube commenters asking when they'll get a chance to hear his voice, however for the time being we'll have to wait and see what it's like.
Of course, with famous parents, Deacon couldn't escape from the very public support that he's getting, with mum Reese taking to Instagram to share details of the new song, and even offering to do a TikTok dance.
Meanwhile, dad Ryan posted the single artwork saying, '#LongRun OUT NOW on all platforms! Stream it nonstop for me. So proud of you @deaconphillippe & what a voice @ninanesbitt CONGRATS YOU TWO!'
