Billie Lourd Pays Tribute to Carrie Fisher: See the Throwback Pic

About two months after the world said goodbye to Carrie Fisher, the late actress’ daughter took to social media in order to once again pay tribute to the legendary star.


Throwback photo style.


On Wednesday night, the 24-year-old actress shared an old picture of herself as a child… sitting in the lap of her famous mother while in a stretch limousine.



Lourd merely captioned the sentimental image with twinkle stars and an angel emoji.


As all movie fans and celebrity gossip fans know by now, tribute comes several weeks after Lourd lost not only her mother in Fisher – but also her grandmother in Debbie Reynolds.


The stars died within days of one another.


This is the image Lourd posted to Instagram last night:



Both Fisher and Reynolds died toward the end of 2016, with Lourd breaking her silence on these losing her parent via a Tweet on January 2.


“Receiving all of your prayers and kind words over the past week has given me strength during a time I thought strength could not exist,” it read.


She then addressed the death of Reynolds:


“There are no words to express how much I will miss my Abadaba and my own and only Momby,” she wrote, concluding at the time by once again addressing her supporters as follows:


“Your love and support means the world to me.”


Lourd also shared another throwback photo with fans in early January, taking Instagram followers back many years with the picture below:



Last month, Glen Powell, an actor who appeared opposite Lourd on the series Scream Queens, spoke to Entertainment Tonight about his friend having to bid farewell to her two loved ones in a matter of days.


“If there’s anybody that can take something so tragic in their life happening, it’s Billie,” the 28-year-old said.


He continued:


“She’s a person who was raised by two very strong women, and she’s a very strong woman. I think she’s digesting it very well.


“She’s very emotionally intelligent, and I think she’s got a great group of friends around her that are supporting her, and I hope I am one of them.” 



It remains surreal that Fisher is no longer with us.


She suffered a heart attack while on board an airplane just before Christmas and remained hospitalized for a few days afterward, eventually succumbing to the internal injuries suffered.


Within 24 hours, Reynolds suffered a stroke and also passed away.


Truly heartbreaking stuff.


Our thoughts remain with Lourd and her family.
