Emotional P!nk ‘Beyond Proud’ as Daughter Willow Leaves Tour to ‘Follow Her Dreams’ of Theater

“This weekend’s shows were Willow’s last few on tour before she takes time away to follow her dreams,” the “Raise Your Glass” singer wrote on Instagram, alongside the footage. “I promised I wouldn’t cry. I DID NOT however, promise I wouldn’t hyperventilate through our hug.”

In the video, the 44-year-old singer is seen taking a sip of a glass of wine before asking her daughter, “All right, I want to hear, I want you to tell me all the things. You’re leaving me. Why would you ever do that?”

Willow, 13, explained she’s ready to pursue musical theater and star on her own stage — telling her mom she’s excited for a production of Bye Bye Birdie. When her mother then asked where she wants it all to lead, the teen responded with “Broadway” — and confirmed she hopes to also “be an adult on Broadway after that.”

The “Get The Party Started” singer recounted the moment that she knew that theater piqued Willow’s interest, after seeing her on-stage for a production of Mamma Mia.

“I had never seen you so big, and your energy was six times your body. It was amazing,” Pink told her child. “I was blown away.”

“You have your own lane and you want to be in it and I love that for you,” the proud mom continued. “It is really wild to watch you grow up and grow out of me,” she added, before jokingly telling her daughter, “Get off my tour, you’re fired!”

In the caption, P!nk added, “I’m beyond proud. We all are. I’m gonna miss you so much. ❤️❤️❤️”

Her daughter has long been interested in performing arts.

The two share their 2021 single “Cover Me in Sunshine” and performed it together during the opening night of P!nk’s tour. She has also starred in a production of Grease and last year had her first recital, where she sang Olivia Rodrigo’s “The Rose Song” from High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.
