Here’s why Demi Moore’s daughter is proud of her
Actor Demi Moore’s daughter Rumer Willis is proud of her mother for opening up about her “vulnerability” in her new book.
“I’m so proud of her vulnerability, and I think so many women have watched her – and just as her daughter I’ve watched her– as this kind of beacon of strength and this kind of leader,” said Rumer, as reported by Fox News.
“I think what I really respect about her is, she’s never the victim in her story. She takes accountability, she takes responsibility, and, mind you, this is her perspective, her story, and she’s the first one to say that,” she continued of her 56-year-old mother.
The actor, who is Demi’s eldest daughter, concluded her comments about the book by describing her mother as a survivor.
“She’s allowing herself to show everyone that you can go through some really difficult, hard things and you can still be someone who is thriving and taking accountability and just being a strong survivor without being like, ‘Oh, I survived this and this is who I am because of this story,’ which I think is amazing.”
The book briefs about the time when the Disclosure (1994) star’s children stopped conversing to her for a time when her life was utterly complicated.
“I lost me,” the actor told television journalist Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America.
“I think the thing if I were to look back, I would say I blinded myself and I lost myself.” The actor was suffering pain and isolation from her close ones and ended up weighing 102 pounds. Not only this, but Demi in 2012 also faced serious health conditions after smoking synthetic marijuana and inhaling nitrous oxide at a party.
“I guess the fundamental question that came forward for me was, ‘How did I get here? From where I started to what I’ve experienced, where
I’ve been, how did I get here?’ ” Demi admitted to GMA.
