The actress, 36, appeared on the British show Loose Women and was asked if she’s been able to take any parenting examples from her famous parents, Demi Moore and Bruce Willis, who split in 1998. The former couple shares daughters Rumer, Scout and Tallulah.

“Absolutely. I think the thing that I’m the most grateful for is that even when they split up, they created such a beautiful foundation of prioritizing my sisters and I,” Rumer shared. “That I never felt like I had to choose. They never played against each other.”

She went on to say that they were a family and they remain a family to this day.

“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,” she said. “I just feel deep gratitude for the example they’ve set and I feel like the example they’ve set has been not only for me, but I think a lot of people have looked at them as an example for that.”

Rumer confirmed she’d split from her ex-boyfriend Derek Richard Thomas, with whom she shares 21-month-old daughter Louetta, in August.

In October, Rumer spoke to PEOPLE about co-parenting with Thomas, sharing that the former couple is still close.

“I feel like my parents set such an unbelievable example, even when they separated of the co-parenting dynamic, and Derek’s my best friend, and that has not changed,” she told PEOPLE.

“We have found an amazing way to keep our friendship and our loving co-parenting relationship. And I think both of us are so happy that we can have that for ourselves as well as for Lou.”
