A tender moment, immortalized. On her Instagram account, Rumer Willis - Bruce Willis' eldest - shared a series of photos to honor fathers, "old and new," Monday, June 19. The great name of Sixth Sense (1999) appears standing there, looking into the distance, his little girl huddled against him. Louetta Isley Thomas Willis, Rumer's first child, 34, appears peaceful in her grandfather's arms. This did not fail to move the young mother, who gave birth on April 18. "Seeing my father holding my daughter today was something I will cherish for the rest of my life," she captioned.

A moment all the more touching that the actor, who retired in 2022, has frontotemporal dementia - a degenerative brain disorder that is similar to Alzheimer's, and an incurable disease. "Her sweetness and love for her was so pure and beautiful," the actress and singer rejoiced. Before addressing directly to the first concerned: "Dad, I'm so lucky to have you [...] Thank you for being the dumbest dad, loving and coolest dad a girl can ask for," punctuating her words with a photo where she poses with him, head against his shoulder, as little "Lou" looks intensely at her grandfather.

Rumer Willis also wanted to celebrate her husband, musician Derek Richard Thomas, who was celebrating his "first Father's Day". She thanked him multiply. "Thank you for building a beautiful garden where Lou can play and eat," "for filling the house with music so she can hear it," "thank you for all the diaper changes in the middle of the night and the grimaces," she wrote, saying she was "so grateful" that her daughter "has a dad who loves her so much." Words that take on their full meaning at the sight of the third photo, where the young father appears smiling radiantly, flat on his stomach next to Louetta.
