Rumer dropped the wild little gem on the What in the Winkler?! podcast, revealing that she and her sisters — Scout and Tallulah — have kept the childhood ritual going strong.
“We all still take baths together, my sisters and I,” the 36-year-old said casually. “And that’s just the kind of house that I grew up in.”
And if you’re side-eyeing that revelation, Rumer has thoughts for you too. “People might think that that’s crazy and weird, but I don’t,” she added.
For the record, Scout and Tallulah are 33 and 31, respectively.
The actress — best known for roles in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and being part of Hollywood royalty — was chatting about co-sleeping with her 23-month-old daughter, Louetta, when the topic came up.
And according to Rumer, she’s all in on keeping that closeness going with her own little one.
“I still sleep in bed with my mom,” she said, referring to none other than her mom, Oscar winner Demi Moore.

Rumer welcomed baby Lou in April 2023 with her ex Derek Richard Thomas. And now, as she navigates co-parenting, she’s looking back at the blueprint her own famous parents created.
In a February appearance on Britain’s Loose Women, Rumer opened up about how Bruce and Demi set the bar for post-split parenting.
“Even when they split up, they created such a beautiful foundation of prioritizing my sisters and I,” she said. “I never felt like I had to choose. Like, they never played against each other. We were a family, and we still are very much a family no matter what.”
She added: “Not only did I feel like that has set me up in my life to have such a beautiful foundation of my own family, but now, as I’m working through co-parenting as well, I feel deep gratitude for the example they’ve set.”

Demi and Bruce tied the knot in 1987 and eventually divorced in June 1998 — but they’ve remained famously close ever since.
It’s been a tough time for the Willis family after Bruce was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a degenerative brain disease that affects behavior, personality, and language skills.
Rumer took to her Instagram story to answer fan questions ahead of her father’s birthday, cited by Entertainment Weekly.
When asked about Bruce’s health, she responded: “He’s doing great, thank you for asking. It’s actually his 70th birthday tomorrow, so please wish my Papa a big happy birthday!”
