The post included the first photo of her baby girl sleeping peacefully in a blanket. Rumer captioned the precious picture, "Louetta Isley Thomas Willis. You are pure magic. Born at home on Tuesday, April 18th. You are more than we ever dreamed of."

Rumer's post of her baby girl was quickly flooded with comments from fans, well-wishers, and various celebrities congratulating her family.

Her mother, Moore, shared, "Pure love for this little birdie," while Emma Heming Willis, Bruce's wife, celebrated Rumer and her baby by writing, "Omg, we love her so so much."

Actress Melanie Griffith wrote, "She is beautiful!! Congratulations Mama! Welcome to this world, Louetta!!"  Nikki Reed commented, "Sweetest girl. Loving you and your mama endlessly," and Hilary Duff said, "Yes, mama …. Magical!'

Model Ireland Baldwin, currently pregnant, commented, "Too cute… it ain't right. So happy for you!!!" 

Rumer revealed to fans that she was pregnant in December 2022 by sharing several photos of Thomas holding her and cradling her bump. Their baby girl is the first grandchild for Moore and Bruce, who have been close friends ever since they split.

Asides from Rumer, they have two daughters, Tallulah and Scout, and Bruce is also a father to Mabel and Evelyn from Emma. During a recent interview with People Magazine, Rumer spoke about looking forward to becoming a mother. She said her parents are also very excited to finally become grandparents.

Rumer said, "[My parents] are so excited. My sisters are so excited, and it's so fun to bring in the first grandkid in our family, especially because we're such a huge group. Also, because I'm so excited, even those moments that are challenging or frustrating, I'm just so excited, that always kind of trumps [everything]."

The 34-year-old also said it's been "the wildest experience" and better than she ever imagined. When asked what's the biggest lesson she's taken from Bruce and Moore's relationship, Rumer said, "You have no control over anything, and just have a lot of grace with yourself."

The Willis family has been through a lot recently, especially after Bruce was officially diagnosed with aphasia in 2022. The actor subsequently returned from the industry and the spotlight to manage his failing health. The family issued a statement on Bruce's condition in February this year.

It read, "Our family wanted to start by expressing our deepest gratitude for the incredible outpouring of love, support, and wonderful stories we have all received since sharing Bruce's original diagnosis."

They updated that Bruce's condition has progressed significantly since the initial aphasia diagnosis. Doctors now believe the actor is suffering fsuffersemporal dementia," known as FTD. The statement further read, "Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces. While this is painful, finally having a clear diagnosis is a relief."

Despite his present state of health, the birth of baby Louetta is sure to bring a lot of joy to Bruce and the entire Willis family.
