Diane Keaton’s daughter, Dexter, paid tribute to her late mom on Mother’s Day.
Sharing an Instagram post on Sunday, May 10, Dexter, 30, posted a carousel of three beautiful mother-daughter images alongside a caption. “First Mother’s Day without you. I miss you more than words can say. Missing her voice, her hugs, her presence, and everything that made her home,” she wrote. “I love you, Mom 🤍.”
The photos showed Dexter as a child at the beach with a smiling Keaton, as well as the pair celebrating Dexter’s wedding day in 2021 and Keaton giving her daughter a kiss on the cheek in a garden. The post comes seven months after Keaton died of pneumonia on October 11, 2025. She was 79 years old.
Dexter’s followers shared comforting words in her carousel’s comments section, reiterating how widely adored the late actress was. “The entire world misses your beautiful, special Mom,” wrote one fan, while another wrote, “Happy Mother’s Day, Dexter. I’m sure your mom is sitting in your heart and watching from above. Sending love.”
A spokesperson for Keaton confirmed to Us Weekly last year that the Oscar-winner had died and that Dexter and her brother, Duke, “asked for privacy” as they grieved. Four days later, People confirmed the actress’ cause of death via a statement shared by Keaton’s family. “The Keaton family are very grateful for the extraordinary messages of love and support they have received these past few days on behalf of their beloved Diane, who passed away from pneumonia on October 11,” the statement read.
In January, Dexter took to Instagram to mark what would have been her mom’s 80th birthday. Sharing an image of a tattoo that celebrated Keaton’s legacy, Dexter wrote at the time, “I miss you, mom 💔🕊️Thank you @winterstone for my forever reminder of my wonderful mom.”

Dexter’s photo showed her tattoo up close, capturing the script, “La Di Da” with a small heart — a reference to the actress’ famous line in 1977’s Annie Hall.
Duke, 26, was also tagged in the photo, with his own fresh commemorative tattoo that said, “Weird Old World.” Dexter’s post also included a photo of Keaton and Dexter from behind as the pair wrapped their arms around each other while taking in a view of the water.
Keaton’s close friend Sarah Paulson also got a tattoo to mark Keaton’s 80th birthday. Sharing an Instagram image of Keaton’s initials etched into her arm, Paulson, 51, wrote, “You would have been 80 today. Too many deep feelings to put here … I was the luckiest person in the world to have traveled, laughed so hard we cried, watched a million and one movies, really cried, and eaten French fries with you. You. You. Wondrous, singular, YOU. I will miss you till the end of time.”
