A week after the devastating deaths of two Hollywood legends namely Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, actress Billie Lourd broke her silence to talk about the consecutive losses. Moreover, she even thanked the fans that have been supporting them ever since the tragedy.
Lourd, who also took part in "Star Wars Episode 7 The Force Awakens" as Lieutenant Kaydel Ko Connix, took to social media to express her love for her "Momby" and her "Abadaba," ABC News reported. In an Instagram post, Lourd thanked the fans who sent out their prayers and words of encouragement in a time where she thought that strength does not exist. She added that their support meant a lot to her and expressed how she will be missing both of them.
Meanwhile, Fisher's co-star, Mark Hamill wrote a column in The Hollywood Reporter reminiscing how it was working with the actress. He even described his relationship with Fisher as if they were in a garage band that somehow made it mainstream. Hamill also recalled the time where they still do not have the slightest idea how big "Star Wars" was until the time they went on tour to Chicago in the 70s to promote their space opera film. A huge crowd was waiting for them during that time and called out Fisher as he saw someone donning the famed "bun" hairdo that the actress immortalized in the "Star Wars" films.
The actor also remembered how open Fisher was in telling some of her private life including her relationship with Eddie Fisher, her stepdad, and even her mother. He added that such gesture from the actress seems like being drawn into her world.
Hamill also wrote the time where he does the silliest of things just to make Fisher laugh. He further explained that seeing onscreen sister smile through him always felt like an honor to be proud of. He ended his column stating that his life would be pretty much dreary if it weren't for Fisher's vibrant persona.
