Ghost star Demi Moore believes she can often smell the presence of her heavy-smoking late mother.
The actress, appearing in Texas oil drama Landman on Paramount+, became Hollywood’s highest-paid female star after the 1990 blockbuster with Patrick Swayze.
Now she says she experiences regular real-life encounters with her mother Virginia, who died of cancer in 1998 aged 55 after lifelong battles with drugs and alcohol.
Demi, 62, says: “My mother was a big smoker, and I have had quite a few experiences – not necessarily in my home, but in a hotel room or maybe a boat – when all of a sudden I smell cigarette smoke. There’s no logical explanation – and I think ‘Maybe that’s my Mom popping in’.”
Demi broke off contact with her mother in 1990 after Virginia stormed out of a rehab facility.
They were reconciled eight years later, shortly before Virginia’s death.
