Tallulah Willis, Once Mocked Online for Having Her Father’s Face, Got Married in Bruce and Demi’s Old Sun Valley Hideaway with Bruce Missing from the Photos

By

Tallulah Willis married musician Justin Acee on Saturday, August 8, in Sun Valley, Idaho, the resort town where Bruce Willis and Demi Moore moved the family to raise their daughters away from paparazzi.

She wore a custom Balenciaga couture gown by creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli, one of his first bridal designs for the house. The strapless silk satin dress took 712 hours to make, with organza petals beaded and hand-applied one by one.

By her early teens she was fielding relentless tabloid commentary about her chin and her resemblance to her father, cruelty she later linked to years of body dysmorphia, an eating disorder, and self-hatred that started around age 13. In 2025 she began reclaiming those same features, calling them “the most precious gift.”

Acee, who performs as NIGHTIES and once drummed for the indie band Made Violent, proposed in December 2024. Earlier this month the couple obtained a marriage license in Blaine County, the Hailey area where the family kept their ranch.

Bruce Willis, diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, has stepped back from public life as his condition progresses. He doesn’t appear in photos from the rehearsal dinner at Fiamma the night before the wedding, which pictured Tallulah, Acee, Rumer, and Rumer’s daughter Louetta, and the family hasn’t confirmed whether he was there for the ceremony.
