Rumer Willis recalls Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's 'kind of crazy' parenting style

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Rumer Willis recently opened up about what it was like to be brought up by her parents, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore.

Talking to The New York Post, the 35-year-old actress noted, "I think what I love about both of my parents is they really cultivated our imagination and the freedom of our expression."

Rumer Willis wants a 'silly, weirdo' environment for her daughter as she had as a child

Rumer, whose daughter Louetta Isley Thomas Willis just turned nine months old, recalled, "We were allowed to wear whatever we wanted to school. I have a photo of me where I’m wearing black-and-white striped tights with a tutu and a red suede fringe jacket. And that’s what we got to wear to school. We got to be so silly." 

The actress further shared that when she and her sisters — Tallulah Willis and Scout LaRue Willis — were children, they "would lick each other’s faces, and my sisters and I would all — with my mom — we would all bathe together."

"And there was just a kind of crazy, silly, weirdo, goofy, naked house. I think that silliness and goofiness is so deeply a part of me, and it’s really what I want to help cultivate in [my daughter’s] life," stated Rumer.

Rumer Willis talks about changing family dynamics 

In the NYP interview, Rumer, who is the eldest child of the 'Pulp Fiction' star Bruce and his ex-wife Moore, mentioned, "I think the groundwork that my parents really laid was that no matter what shape our family took, we were still family."

She continued, "So whether they were together or whether they were not, whether my mom had a partner or my dad had a partner, we were always a family," before asserting, "So that when my stepmom came in when my two little sisters came in, it just meant that our family was growing."

"There wasn’t like, 'Oh, here’s this family, and here’s that family now.' It’s just that our family got bigger. [A] collective harmony and not ever having us have to split holidays or go on different vacations. We were always together," shared the 'Sorority Row' actress. 

Bruce married his second wife, Emma Heming Willis, in 2009 after his divorce from the 'Ghost' actress in 2000. The couple shares two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn. 

Rumer Willis says her daughter Louetta is everyone's favorite

Rumer also opened up about her daughter Louetta’s bond with her family members and said, "My sisters are absolutely obsessed with Lou. [Tallulah] is called Auntie Whimsy . . . They’re obsessed with her."

"Over Christmas, I barely got to hold her. Between my mom and my sisters and some of our friends there, it was like, 'Nope, we’re gonna take her. We’re gonna go.' And Lou just loves them," fondly remembered the 'Dancing with the Stars' Season 20 winner. 

She added, "Lou really loves my mom, too. You know that little FaceTime noise? If Lou hears that, she literally will turn her face towards the camera and immediately this ear-to-ear smile is plastered on her face. Then she gets to see her Yaya, and she loses her mind."
