Sarah Michelle Gellar and Reese Witherspoon were reluctant to ask for a playdate with famous celebrities, despite their children attending preschool with Adele's son, Angelo. Gellar's son's request was met with skepticism, and she suggested that other parents were too shy to ask the singer. She also suggested that Witheraspoon, who was also in the class, should have asked for a date. The pair did not immediately meet at school, but they did make contact occasionally during school.
