Rumer Willis spoke with People about the sweet traits her six-month-old daughter, Louetta, has inherited from Bruce Willis. The Once Upon a Time…in Hollywood actor gave birth to her child, whom she shares with boyfriend Derek Richard Thomas, back in April.

On the red carpet for the opening night of Love Actually Live in Beverly Hills Wednesday evening, Rumer revealed that the Willis genes are particularly strong in Louetta. “Whenever she's got a stern discerning look on her face, I just see Bruce Willis,” Rumer shared.

“My dad—especially on [TV series] Moonlighting—has this little side smirk, that very [mischievous] twinkle in his eye, and I see that so much in her,” the Sorority Row actor explained.

Bruce has three daughters with ex-wife Demi Moore. Along with Rumer, the couple shares Scout and Tallulah. Bruce also has two daughters—Mabel Ray and Evelyn Penn—with his current wife, Emma Heming Willis.

Earlier this year, the Willis-Moore family announced Bruce’s retirement following his diagnosis with frontotemporal dementia. Heming Willis offered an update in September, telling The Today Show that it’s “hard to know” if Bruce understands his current condition. In October, Moonlighting creator Glenn Gordon Caron revealed the actor is “not totally verbal” at this point, though, “When you’re with him you know that he’s Bruce and you’re grateful that he’s there.”

Rumer expressed to People her excitement to induct Louetta into the family’s Christmas traditions, with Bruce by their side.

“We haven't had a baby in the house in so long. So to be able to have that kind of Christmas energy and our first Christmas with my family—all of us there with a new baby, and having that joy and excitement of Christmas, I can't wait,” Rumer gushed. "Christmas is such a big holiday for us."
