Actress Billie Lourd has shared a moving Carrie Fisher 9th Anniversary Tribute, reflecting on her mother’s enduring legacy nine years after her passing. In a heartfelt Instagram post on December 27, 2025, the American Horror Story star described how the late Star Wars icon “lives on through joy.”
Lourd shared a rare throwback photo of herself as a child with Fisher and her father, Bryan Lourd, alongside a present-day photo of Bryan with her own children. She recounted a sweet morning moment with her daughter, Jackson, noting that such happiness “only exists because she [Fisher] existed.”
The actress described her current state of mind as “bittersweet grieful joy,” explaining that while her mother isn’t physically present, her spirit remains vibrant through the love Lourd shares with her kids. This Carrie Fisher 9th Anniversary Tribute concluded with a poignant quote from Fisher herself: “Nothing is ever really over. Just over there.”
Fisher passed away in 2016 at age 60, followed just one day later by her mother, Debbie Reynolds. Lourd continues to honor both “icons” by sharing their stories with the next generation.
