Angel Reese, the Chicago Sky forward who closed out her second WNBA season with averages of 14.7 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 1.5 steals per game, is taking full advantage of her offseason. The two-time All-Star has been in the spotlight for more than just her on-court exploits. From strutting the runway at the 2025 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to making her film debut in A House of Dynamite, Reese has become a star off the court, too.
Amid all the glitz, Reese took time to reconnect with her family. Returning home, she surprised her mother, Angel Webb Reese, in a heartfelt reunion captured in a photo that went viral on social media. Angel Webb Reese shared the image on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption: “Always love when I get to see my baby!” In the snapshot, Reese dons a gray tracksuit decorated with white pearls and a navy New York Yankees baseball cap, while her mother sports an all-black ensemble, pairing pants and a hoodie with a North Face vest and a fanny pack.
Reese herself shared another glimpse of their close bond with her 5.2 million Instagram followers. Posting a photo of the two side by side, she wrote, “Twinnnnn,” accompanied by a heart-eyes emoji, highlighting the playful and warm connection that fans immediately loved.
This reunion isn’t just a personal moment; it comes on the heels of a milestone for Reese. On October 15, she made history as the first professional athlete to walk the runway at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, a moment her mother witnessed firsthand. Webb’s excitement was unmistakable in a viral clip where she enthusiastically waved and cheered for her daughter, shouting, “That’s my baby!”
The images and stories from Reese’s offseason highlight a side of the WNBA star that fans rarely see during the grind of the regular season. Beyond her dominance on the court, she’s carving out a life in fashion and film, all while maintaining a close connection with her family. Her relationship with her mother, full of humor, love, and mutual admiration, has become a touchpoint for fans eager to see the personal side of a rising sports star.
Reese isn’t planning to play in the Unrivaled three-on-three women’s basketball league this offseason, which means fans will have to wait until May 2026 to see her perform on the court again. But in the meantime, her social media presence, combined with high-profile appearances and heartwarming family moments, ensures that she remains one of the most talked-about athletes in the WNBA.
For Angel Reese, the offseason is more than just rest; it’s about family, milestones, and experiences that shape her both on and off the court. From making history in fashion to celebrating life with her “twin” mom, Reese’s journey continues to captivate fans—and she’s just getting started.
