Rumer Willis showed off her slender figure after welcoming her first child last year.
The 35-year-old Dancing With The Stars veteran posted a series of throwback photos to Instagram on Friday from her summer getaway.
In the first shot, Rumer wore a two-piece yellow bathing suit with a matching cover-up, putting her toned stomach on display.
She had on pretty makeup and kept her hair slicked back as she stood on a sandy beach.
Other shots included a close-up selfie of Rumer lounging on a chair and a sweet video of herself and her 1-year-old daughter Louetta in the ocean.

Louetta slept peacefully on a yellow and white beach chair in one snap, as Rumer posed in a beach coverup and a giant necklace in another.
Out of beachwear, Rumer stunned in a long, flowy dress with her blonde hair falling down her back.
Louetta made two more appearances in the actress’s Instagram carousel, once walking on the sand and again in a sweet mommy-daughter picture at sunset.
‘Dreaming of being back in Caymans,’ Rumer captioned her post. ‘What a glorious family adventure, the most stunning ocean and unbelievable food. Brought my favorite new looks for the beach and Louetta’s first time all the way in the ocean.’
The icon’s post comes days after she celebrated her boyfriend Derek Richard Thomas on his first father’s day.
‘”Derek, Lou is so lucky to have a papa that loves her so much,’ Rumer wrote on Instagram. ‘I am so grateful she has a dad that encourages and helps to cultivate her sense of wonder and play and teaches her it’s okay to get dirty and run barefoot in the grass. Happy Fathers Day. Love your girls, Rue and Lou.”‘
Derek also gave a nod to newest title, sharing in the post, ‘“I love you, Louetta. Thank you for changing my life and transforming me into a better person. Being your father is the greatest joy of my life. It’s an honor to be your guide as you teach me how to live.’
He added, ‘Thank you you for existing and thank you to your mother @rumerwillis for being my loving partner on this journey of parenthood. I love you both. And thank you my father, my grandfathers and my many chosen fathers in this life who have selflessly given me their attention and love and for making me who I am.”’
And along with watching her other half be a father to their little one, Rumer took a moment to gush over her parents Demi Moore and Bruce Willis’ connection to Louetta.

She told Today in May that the exes are in their ‘grandparent era.’
‘Honestly, seeing them with her, it just, it almost unlocks all of these childhood memories because being a grandparent, I think, is the best,’ Rumer confessed. ‘They have all of the love and joy without any of the responsibilities. They get to just spoil her.’
And on their last visit with Bruce, Louetta shared some touching moments with the Die Hard actor.
‘Lou is just starting to walk a little bit, and she was walking over to him, and it was so sweet,’ Rumer shared. ‘He’s a girl dad, through and through. I saw him with my sisters, my little sisters. So you’re seeing that all come back again.’
Meanwhile, becoming a mom herself has given the Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood actress a new perspective on her relationship with Demi.
‘I think we can be so harsh on our mom sometimes, especially girls,’ Rumer admitted.
The Sorority Row star shared that motherhood has given her a newfound confidence: ‘There’s something about becoming a mom that just, I don’t know, I have this kind of (feeling like) I can do anything’

‘I had this moment early on where I think I even went over to my mom’s house and I cried a little bit because I was like, “I get it,”‘ she recalled. ‘The love that I feel for her is what she was feeling for me and I just had this depth of love and appreciation.’
Rumer has also gained a new confidence in herself, thanks to her baby girl.
‘I think I always used to feel a bit nervous sometimes where I had that, almost, imposter syndrome. … And there’s something about becoming a mom that just, I don’t know, I have this kind of (feeling like) I can do anything,’ the Sorority Row star told Today in a follow-up interview.
Rumer and Derek welcomed Louretta at home in April 2023, and the What Lies Ahead alum has been vocal about motherhood ever since.
In December, she even revealed the meaning behind her daughter’s moniker.
‘Her name is a mix of things I love,’ Rumer shared during an Instagram Q&A. ‘I have always loved the name Lou so was thinking of that for both a boy or a girl but then when we found out she was a girl we came up with Louetta. We wanted to give her options, and me and my dad’s favorite singers are Lou = Louie Armstrong, Etta = Etta James, Isley — Isley Brothers.’
