He and his former wife Demi Moore have a reputation for creating a loving extended family life. Rumer, his daughter, talked to PEOPLE about having divorced parents.
"I'm so grateful that we have all really strived to have really deep and meaningful and honest communication. In any relationship — whether it's with a partner, whether it's with your family or your friends — that being honest and just really communicating well and having good tools for communication, I think, is so unbelievably important.
"I have a lot of friends who grew up with parents who got divorced at a young age and I watched their parents, like, pit them against each other or have to choose between holidays," she added. "And I didn't have to do that, and I feel so grateful that my parents made it such a priority that we could be a family, even though it looked different."
Best wishes to Willis and his family.
