Alongside a lovely black and white photo of her grandmother, the actress wrote, “Our guardian angel. My beautiful, strong, creative, loving grandma. You are missed but your wisdom and love are with me and my family every day.”

 

The Dawson’s Creek alum expressed her gratitude for all the memories they shared, “I am so thankful for all of our wonderful times.

The Logan Lucky star tends to keep her personal life out of the spotlight, which is a wise move following her high profile divorce from Tom Cruise in 2012.
