Rumer Willis is "blown away" by her younger sister Tallulah, following her recovery from various issues during a recent stay in rehab.
Tallulah, the youngest daughter of Hollywood stars Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, was forced to enter a rehab facility earlier this year to deal with insecurity issues stemming from her body dysmorphia diagnosis.
Willis praised her sister for her "strength" while talking to People magazine at Samsung's event to celebrate the Galaxy Note 4 on Thursday.
"I've actually been so impressed and blown away by her strength and her openness and willingness," Willis said of her sister, "Not only to move past things but also to share herself with other people."
The 26-year-old actress added both Tallulah and her other sister Scout, 20, had a different upbringing than she did, because they grew up in Los Angeles.
"When you grow up like we do, everyone has an opinion of you. Everyone wants to put you in a particular box. If you get photographed the wrong way or you're at a party, it doesn't matter if you're drinking or not, you know, it's whatever the perception is," Willis shared. "So if you allow yourself to find your value in other people's perceptions of you, then you will never be happy, whether it's good or bad."
Tallulah returned home from rehab in September, but a month before that opened up about her struggles with eating disorders and body dysmorphia -- "a body-image disorder characterized by persistent and intrusive preoccupations with an imagined or slight defect in one's appearance," according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America -- in a candid interview with the What's Underneath Project.
"I'm diagnosed with body dysmorphia [because of] reading those stupid [expletive] tabloids when I was like 13, feeling like I was just ugly, always," the now 20-year-old says in the video. "I believed the strangers more than the people who loved me, because why would the people who love me be honest?"
