9 Years Since Carrie Fisher's Passing: Billie Lourd Honors Mom Through Grandkids' Joy
Billie Lourd marks the 9th anniversary of Carrie Fisher's death with a touching tribute about finding her mother's spirit in the joy of her grandchildren.
She's been gone for 9 years, but her joy is still waking up the house. Billie Lourd shared a moving tribute to her late mother, Carrie Fisher, on the anniversary of the Star Wars icon’s death, revealing how the legendary actress "lives on" through Lourd's own children.
A Bittersweet 'Grieful' Joy
On Saturday, December 27, 2025, the Booksmart actress took to Instagram to describe her current experience with loss. Lourd, who welcomed a son in 2020 and a daughter in 2022, shared that while her mother isn't physically present, she remains the source of the happiness Lourd finds in motherhood today.
Nothing is ever really over. Just over there. My momby's life isn't really over. Just over there—in my kids and in this joy I’m able to experience because of her.
Grandma is Princess Leia
Lourd recently introduced her children to Fisher's work in the 1983 film Return of the Jedi. While the kids were initially confused between "Grandma Carrie" and "Princess Leia," Lourd noted that having these films is like having "the ultimate high-budget home movie" to share her mother’s memory with the next generation.
