Rumer WillisRumer Willis has dismissed dad Bruce Willis‘ claims that he acts tough around her boyfriends.

For years, Bruce has claimed he threatens suitors who try to date Rumer, Scout or Tallulah, his three daughters with ex-wife Demi Moore, but Rumer insists he’s really a big softy.

She explained recently: “My dad pretends he’s macho and tells people about how he vets our boyfriends and is really tough, but it’s not true at all.

“It’s totally an act. He’s always so sweet to my boyfriends.”
