Reese Witherspoon celebrates her book launch with pals Joanna Gaines and Jenna Bush Hager in Texas

On her penultimate book tour stop Reese Witherspoon was lucky to be hosted by home improvement pro Joanna Gaines.

The actress stopped in Waco, Texas on Thursday to talk about her book and while there the Fixer Upper star made her feel right at home at her Magnolia Market at The Silos which she shares with husband Chip.

Reese, who is promoting her new book Whiskey in a Teacup, also brought along Jenna Bush Hager to moderate the event.

‘Fun night with these beautiful ladies! What an honor to host @reesewitherspoon for her #whiskeyinateacup book tour tonight at the Silos’ she captioned the snap.

Reese, 42, looked fabulous in a floral knee-length dress and ankle-strap heels. 

The actress was spotted grinning happily while taking a phone call in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

It turns out the actress had just found out her debut book had topped the New York Times Best Sellers List, which she subsequently confirmed via Instagram.

Reese’s first ever book, Whiskey In A Teacup, which is a lifestyle book inspired by her southern upbringing, hit the shelves this month.

Along with her smash hit TV series Big Little Lies, Reese is also working on a new show with Jennifer Aniston, which will take place behind the scenes of the morning TV shows.

No further plot details have been unveiled, but it is set to arrive in 2019.

On top of all that Reese is a busy mom to six-year-old Tennessee — whom she shares with husband Jim Toth — and 19-year-old Ava and 14-year-old Deacon, whom she shares with ex Ryan Phillippe.
