Demi Moore 'proud' of daughter Rumer Willis

Los Angeles: Actress Demi Moore is "proud" of her daughter Rumer Willis for trying to follow in her footsteps by carving out a career in Hollywood.

Moore says its "thrilling" to watch Willis, who is currently competing on ‘Dancing With the Stars’, reports usmagazine.com.

Asked about the 26-year-old actress' success, Moore, 52, said: "It is thrilling! I am so proud of her and excited for people to be seeing what I have seen since she was a little girl. She is incredibly talented, and I love seeing her light shine."

But Moore claims Willis and her other daughters with former husband Bruce Willis, Scout, 23, and Tallulah, 20, haven't always had it easy and were bullied as teenagers.

She said: “No child should be subjected to that type of judgment or criticism, especially based on their looks...As a parent, all you can do is love them and keep loving them until they love themselves.”
