Rumer and Derek revealed in December that they were expecting their first child together. Demi Moore enthusiastically embraced her new role as a grandmother, describing it as her “hot kooky unhinged grandma era” when she reshared her daughter’s announcement.
Rumer’s pregnancy coincided with a challenging period for the family, as her father Bruce Willis has been openly dealing with frontotemporal dementia. Despite the difficult diagnosis, the entire family has been looking forward to welcoming the newest member with great excitement and joy.
Rumer shared with People that her parents and sisters were all thrilled about the arrival of the first grandchild in their family, especially given their large family size. She mentioned that this excitement has played a crucial role in helping her cope with some of the challenges she has faced over the past few months.

She emphasized that, despite any difficulties, her enthusiasm for the new addition to the family always triumphs, making the experience truly remarkable. Rumer described the entire journey as even more incredible than she had initially imagined.
“…even those moments that are challenging, or feel frustrating, I’m just so excited, that always kind of trumps [everything]… But, it’s wild. It’s the wildest experience, even more so than I ever thought of.”
Congratulations to Rumer and Derek on the arrival of their baby, and to Bruce and Demi for becoming grandparents! We wish them all the best as they cherish this extraordinary time in their lives.
