Rumer and Derek announced the pregnancy with a pair of baby bump photos on the social media platform back in December, to the joy of her family.

Taking to Instagram, Demi mirrored her daughter's announcement by sharing the same photos. "Entering my hot kooky unhinged grandma era," she captioned the post. On Rumer's post, she simply wrote back: "Love YOU."

She received a baby shower from her family back in March, including Demi, her step-mom Emma Heming Willis, her sisters Scout, 31, and Tallulah, 29, and her half-sisters from Bruce's marriage to Emma, Mabel, 10, and Evelyn, eight.

The actress spoke with People recently about the joys of motherhood, gushing: "I have so much reverence and respect for women now. I feel I've had an easier time physically than most of my friends.

She gushed also about her supportive boyfriend Derek's involvement, saying: " He's been so lovely, and he's just so excited to be a dad, and we're both just so delighted to meet whoever this little person is.
