Ice-T has a mini-me.

The “Law & Order: SVU” star’s wife, Coco Austin, shared a photo of their daughter, Chanel, to Instagram Sunday, and it quickly went viral as fans noted the striking resemblance the 5-year-old has to her dad.

“Ice T daughter is gonna be auditioning for Law and Order Preschool,” one Twitter user quipped.

“Can’t stop crying. Those genes are strong!” another fan tweeted.

“Chanel doesn’t have to audition…she just needs to show up!” a third netizen joked.

Some social media users were so struck by the father-daughter duo’s uncanny resemblance that they questioned the legitimacy of Austin’s photo.

“Is this photo doctored???” one person wondered.

“WTH? That looks like someone photoshopped his face on a little girl’s body,” another Twitter user agreed.

The actor, 63, and Austin, 42, welcomed Chanel in November 2015 ahead of their 10th wedding anniversary. He also has a 45-year-old daughter, Letesha, and a 29-year-old son, Tracy Jr., from previous relationships.

While Chanel is the spitting image of her dad, she seems to enjoy dressing like her mom. The tot twinned with Austin in coordinating bikinis while on vacation in the Bahamas in May.

“OMG!!!!” one follower wrote. “She looks just like her Father!!!!!” Added another, “Ice T’s mini me!”

For the outing, Chanel wore a black Nike shirt with matching pants and sneakers for the show and had bright pink bows tied around her pigtails. At one point, the young star walked out onto the stage, where she danced to the music. As Ice-T wrote on Instagram, “Somebody’s growing up on the stage with Daddy…”

While followers may think Chanel looks like Ice-T, she also regularly dresses up like her mom.

Cutest Celeb Kids on Instagram

On July 4, Coco posted Instagram pictures of the mother-daughter duo donning identical red, white and blue dresses.

And in May, she shared snapshots of them wearing matching swimsuits.

“The twinning never stops!” she wrote on Instagram at the time. “Chanel likes it too much. When you match with your child you feel the bond, its nice to know chanel wants to be like her mommy.. #BestiesForLife.”

Coco and Ice-T welcomed Chanel in November 2015, about a month before they celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary. Over the years, the parents have shared many memories with their fans, such as by posting pictures of Chanel having fun at her birthday parties, driving in her toy Bentley and enjoying trips to Disney World.

The 42-year-old took to Instagram to share four pictures, three of which showed her posing in shredded leggings.

However, it was the fourth snap that got all the attention - mainly because it showed Coco smiling with her only child in her arms, who seems to resemble her father quite a bit.

People quickly took to the comments section, as one person wrote: “She has her dad’s entire face,” while another added, “she looks just like her daddy!”

One person chimed in: “Looks exactly like pops,” while a fourth wrote, “Chanel looks like her daddy!”

NOTHING BUT LOVE

Coco and the famous rapper, 63, tied the knot in 2005 and celebrated their 20st anniversary earlier this year.

Ice-T married the swimsuit model in January 2002, and on their impending 9th wedding anniversary, the couple renewed their wedding vows on June 4, 2011.

Chanel is their only child together, however, Ice-T is also a father to 29-year-old son Tracy and 45-year-old daughter Letesha - both from different relationships.

SCARY TIMES

Previously, Ice-T touched on fatherhood and raising his little one, telling the NY Post: “It’s been great… I’m healthier than I was at 40 because your brain tells you, ‘I have to be around for this kid. I got things to do.’”

While the family seems like all good vibes now, they hit a scary roadblock back in August 2020 when Ice-T’s father-in-law Steve battled Covid-19.

Before getting better, Steve found himself at the hospital, as Coco said at the time: “I just want him to pull through. I’ve been sending as much love as I can but there’s only so much I can do from a distance.

“I want to be in the room with him right now and hold his hands, and just let him know that his family loves him, to push through, and this is too early for him to go.”

“He is bound to an oxygen machine till who knows when but is very lucky…” Coco said after her father returned home from the hospital.
