Billie Lourd Honors Her Mother Carrie Fisher Five Years After Her Death 

In an Instagram post on the 27th of this month, Billie Lourd opened up about her experience with grief as she marked the fifth anniversary of her mother Carrie Fisher’s passing. 

“People always ask me what stage of grief I’m in. And my answer is never simple,” Lourd began in her caption beneath a throwback photo of herself and Fisher posing with a Koala. “My grief is a multi course meal with many complicated ingredients. An amuse bouche of bargaining followed by an anger appetizer with a side of depression, acceptance for the entree and of course a little denial for dessert.”

“And that’s how grief should be,” she continued, sharing her love and learning with fans and followers. “All things all at once – actually there is no ‘should’ in grief – grief just is whatever it is for you and that is how it ‘should be.’”
