Rumer Willis has revealed an enduring life lesson that she learned from her mom Demi Moore, which she is now hoping to emulate with her own daughter.
During a recent appearance on the Glamour & Grit podcast, actress Willis spoke with married couple Sainty and Eric Nelsen about co-parenting her 18-month-old daughter, Louetta, with singer Derek Richard Thomas—her former partner.
Dancing with the Stars alum Willis said: “The biggest lesson that I feel like I ever learned from just my mom, that I’ve tried to kind of input with Louetta, is that our kids don’t learn because we tell them to—they learn by watching us.
“So if I’m talking badly about my body, or if I’m not living in my authenticity and I’m sacrificing just because I’m trying to make something work, that’s the pattern that she’s going to then see.”
