Reese asked boyfriend Jake to see if his sister Maggie could get any memorabilia from the set of new Batman movie The Dark Knight, for her four-year-old son Deacon.

Deacon – Reese’s son from her marriage to Ryan Phillippe – was said to be “thrilled” by the action figures and copy of the script Maggie got for him.

A friend of Reese said: “Deacon is quite the Batman fan. Deacon has been waiting for The Dark Knight to come out, although Reese was worried that it was too dark for him to watch at his age.

“He was thrilled with Maggie’s presents.”

Meanwhile, Reese and Jake were seen “very much in love” when they recently enjoyed a holiday to Paris, France, with Deacon and Ava, Reese and Ryan’s nine-year-old daughter.

A waiter at Paris restaurant Allard’s, where the family dined, said: “They looked very much in love and were happy and smiling the whole time. Reese speaks great French – I was so impressed. They seemed to be one big happy family!”

Reese and Jake have been dating for almost a year after meeting on the set of 2007 movie Rendition.
