Reese Witherspoon’s son gives tour NYC apartment
Deacon Phillippe was approached by TikToker Caleb Simpson. Based on Caleb’s new video, Deacon is enjoying life in New York's posh West Village neighbourhood. The video began with Caleb asking how much Deacon’s apartment costs, to which he replied, “West Village prices, man."
He then took Caleb through his apartment, which he shares with several roommates. When Caleb walked into the apartment, he panned the camera to show a spacious two-floor home, with a spiral staircase in the middle. The space features brick walls – giving off classic NYC vibes. There is a spacious kitchen near the living room and a statement 'vinyl wall' with multiple vinyl records hanging above a keyboard. The home also has large paintings throughout. Deacon also gave a glimpse into his bedroom, where he has a small studio to work on music.
