Rumer Willis Seeks Supervised Visits for Daughter

Rumer Willis has taken legal action, filing an emergency request for supervised visits with her former partner, Derek Richard Thomas, and their daughter, Louetta. The court documents reveal Willis's allegations that Thomas has frequently failed to comply with court-ordered visitation arrangements.

Specifically, Willis claims that Thomas has made unsafe decisions for their daughter, such as attempting to cross a busy highway bridge and walking in extreme heat without transportation. She also stated that he refused to allow a court-appointed supervisor and a supervising nanny into his home or Airbnb, separating the supervisor from their child at a public event.

Thomas, a musician and frontman for the indie rock band The Vista Kicks, has denied these claims. He previously accused Willis of interfering with his access to Louetta. The former couple, who welcomed Louetta in 2023, confirmed their separation in August 2024 but had been co-parenting until the current legal conflicts arose.
