Rumer Willis responds to critics after she is blasted for breast-feeding 3-year-old daughter

Bruce Willis' eldest daughter Rumer has hit back at people who've been criticising her for breast-feeding her three-year-old daughter, Louetta.

The actress, who's been providing health updates on her father in recent months, took to Instagram to share a video of her breastfeeding Louetta with the caption: “When someone starts judging my parenting.”

Rumer shares Louetta with her ex Derek Richard Thomas and the single mum has said she's had to work four different jobs to provide.

In the video, a woman draws two circles on a whiteboard and says: “This is my business,” pointing to one circle, “And this is yours,” while pointing to a second.

“I am here,” she says whilst referring to the first circle.

“The problem is, you are also here,” she added, pointing to the same circle before drawing a line to the second circle.

“When you need to be here,” the woman said.

Back in 2024, Rumer confirmed that she is no longer with Thomas and that she is 'single momming it and co-parenting'.

While raising her child, she's also had to address nepo baby claims from 'uninformed and rude people in my comments'.

“I work four different jobs to provide for my daughter,” she explained on a previous post.

“I am the sole provider for her. I don’t live off a trust fund or get money from my parents.

“Most of the time, I don’t have help with her. So how about y’all pause before you judge and assume.”

She added: “I am aware that I have privileges in my life that many people don’t, and I don’t take that for granted.

“I know there are realities I will never experience, and I respect that.

“But this particular post wasn’t about privilege or comparing circumstances, and it feels like people are assuming I was ignoring that when that wasn’t the conversation I was trying to have.”

Amidst the many updates about her dad, who has been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, Rumer said last year that she remains 'happy and grateful' that she and her daughter are still able to visit him, even though he doesn't always recognise who she is.

"I'm so happy and grateful that I still get to go and hug him," she said.

"I'm so grateful that when I go over there, and I give him a hug, whether he recognises me or not, that he can feel the love I've given him, and I can feel it back from him."

The Die Hard actor, 71, announced his retirement from acting in 2022 after his dementia diagnosis, 'a condition that makes it difficult to communicate. It can make it hard to speak, read, write and understand others,' according to the NHS.
