Bruce Willis and Demi Moore had a reunion of sorts in the audience of Dancing With the Stars as they both turned up to cheer on daughter Rumer Willis’ debut performance.

The newest season of the US edition of Dancing With the Stars premiered on Monday night in the States and featured Bruce and Demi’s eldest daughter Rumer, 26, taking to the dance floor for the first time alongside partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy.

The former power couple might have gone their separate ways 15 years ago but they’re clearly still on good enough terms to get together and cheer on their kids. Bruce was seated in the front row alongside his current wife Emma Heming with Demi seated close behind.

Also in attendance and cheering loudly for their big sister were two of Bruce and Demi’s younger daughters Scout, 23, and Tallulah, 21 who clearly couldn’t care less about any tensions that there may have been between their separated parents!

“Demi and Bruce did not speak the entire two-hour show at all,” an eyewitness told Us Weekly.

“However, Tallulah and Scout could not have been more thrilled and excited to be there! Even in the very beginning of the show, they were dancing and singing to all the music and looking really excited.”

“When the opening number happened, Tallulah turned around and told her mom how excited she was to be there,” the insider added of the former child actress. “She loved it! The best part was when Rumer danced — Tallulah in particular was losing her mind and was cheering and screaming. She was in tears and just yelling for her sister. It was adorable!”

Rumer’s Dad Bruce Willis, his wife Emma Heming and little sister Talulah Willis can be seen cheering her on in the audience. 

Proud mum Demi seemed to have a tear in her eye as she cheered and even rejoined Twitter to show her support for Rumer’s debut performance. 

Rumer and Valentin certainly impressed the judges with their performance of the foxtrot and as the audience burst into applause, the camera panned from a beaming Bruce to a mum Demi who appeared to have tears of pride in her eye.

“She’s just really excited and supportive,” Rumer recently shared with E! News when asked what her mum Demi thought of her joining the show. “I think that’s the most important thing that anybody can ask for, is just the support and love from your family.”

Demi was so proud that she even took to social media site Twitter, which she’s been absent from for over two years, just to encourage people to show their support for her ‘Rue’.

Demi tweeted a snap of Rumer getting ready behind the scenes which she captioned: “Been awhile but my baby girl @TheRue was amazing tonight on #DWTS so proud! Watch & vote!”

As to Bruce? “He was very excited,” Rumer said. “He’s really a softie, which most people don’t know but he was excited.”
