After months of speculation, Rumer Willis and Derek Richard Thomas came clean about their relationship status in a joint Instagram post. In November 2022, they uploaded an adorable fall-themed photo set of the pair with a backdrop of a wooded area. There were no grand declarations in the caption, but they included a snap of the “Hostage” actor planting a kiss on Thomas’ cheek, plus a photo of the two kissing.
A little over a month later, on December 20, 2022, the couple made a major announcement when they let fans know they were expecting their first child. Both Willis and Thomas uploaded a black-and-white photo set to Instagram where the musician kissed his girlfriend’s baby bump. Once again, the pair decided to forego a lengthy caption and instead opted for simply using a seedling emoji.
The child would be the first grandbaby for ex-couple Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, who were both ecstatic about the news. Moore wasted no time celebrating publicly. The day after Rumer’s post, Moore uploaded an Instagram snap of her own where her daughter was getting an ultrasound. Rumer’s sisters, Scout Willis and Tallulah Willis, came along for support as well. It was also reported that Bruce was also excited about the big news. “He loves having a big family,” a source told People.
