People reported that Demi Moore told Kate Hudson at a Jan. 7 Q&A at Soho House in Los Angeles that, during her marriage to Bruce Willis, he kept a weekly ritual he called "Neil Diamond Day."

Moore, who was married to Willis from 1987 until 2000 and shares three daughters — Rumer, 37, Scout, 34, and Tallulah, 31 — said the routine involved Willis playing Neil Diamond "throughout the day." She recalled, according to the Daily Mail, that he "kept on doing that for years. He was a huge Neil fan. And so am I!" Moore said the film Song Sung Blue, inspired by Diamond's 1972 song, kept reminding her of that habit and praised Hudson's, Hugh Jackman's and the children's performances at the special screening, which was attended by Leonardo DiCaprio, Al Pacino, Mark Ruffalo and director David O'Russell.

Moore and Willis have remained close over the years: Willis told Rolling Stone in December 2000 that "I still love Demi. We're very close. We have three children whom we will continue to raise together," and he told W magazine in June 2009 that "We've become like a tribe" after marrying Emma Heming Willis; Moore attended that wedding with her then-husband Ashton Kutcher.
