We know that Bruce Willis is seriously ill. Suffering from dementia, she put her acting career on hold and has since lived in retirement from the set, surrounded by her family. It’s his kids and wife who regularly break his news, but it’s enough for his fans to relax. This Tuesday, December 19, Rumer, his 35-year-old eldest daughter, participated in the game of secrets, answering a few questions on her Instagram account about her life, her father’s health and… her name choice. from her newborn.
Born last April, Luetta Easley Thomas Willis, the first child of Rumer Willis and Derek Thomas, has a slightly unusual name. “I’ve always liked the name Lou because it’s neither a girl’s nor a boy’s name,” she adds, before adding: “And when we found out it was a girl, we thought of Luetta.” But there is another explanation. “We wanted to give him a name that combined the artists that dad and I adore,” says Rumer Willis. It’s “Louie [sic] Armonstrong for Lou, Etta James for Etta and Easley Borters for Easley,” explains the young mother. Bruce Willis’ granddaughter’s name is the least original of the nods to her father and, we understand, moments shared with him. A tribute to the American actor’s career that baby Luetta will carry throughout her life. With a sixth sense?
