Bec Hewitt is an undisputed Aussie golden girl – and her two daughters Mia and Ava are well en route to following in their mum’s footsteps.

The Hewitt trio are a sight to behold when pictured together – their similarities, mannerisms and quirks are undeniable.

Some might call it the Bec effect – but there’s no denying both Mia, 17, and Ava, 12, are paving out their own legacies in the wake of their mother’s success as an actress.

Of course, we’ll never forget the moment Bec married Aussie tennis legend Lleyton Hewitt – it seemed the pair’s fairytale romance couldn’t be anymore perfect.

That was until they welcomed their two daughters and 14-year-old son Cruz – who incidentally is a dab hand at tennis, just like his father.

Yep, this celebrity family are undoubtedly destined for great things – and we’re more than happy to witness the ride.

Keep scrolling as we see it in action – all while the Hewitt triplets (ahem, we mean, trio) take on the world together.

WATCH: Hear Bec Hewitt talk about how she started dating Lleyton back in the day. Gallery begins below…

Bec on Home and Away

Bec’s character Hayley on Home and Away was memorable to say the least – and we’re pretty sure daughter Ava would give whatever role she gets a similar treatment.

Mia looks just like her mum!

We also must address the fact that Mia, aged 17, is literally the spit of her mother as she was on the brink of her Home and Away debut. Last year, Bec shared this stunning moment from Paris, as she and her lookalike daughter attended a fashion show.
