Busy Philipps Celebrates Daughter Birdie’s Graduation From Swedish Boarding School

Thanking local caregivers for aiding Birdie after a seizure, Philipps said summer filming will shift caregiving to the girls' father.

Overview

  • Philipps posted an emotional Instagram tribute Monday marking Birdie’s high-school graduation after three years at a boarding school in Sweden.
  • Birdie chose the move herself and lived more than 5,000 miles from her Los Angeles family while completing secondary school abroad.
  • Philipps said Birdie suffered a seizure while in Sweden and publicly thanked a friend and school caregivers who stepped in during the emergency.
  • Photos shared by Philipps show Swedish graduation customs, including the white student cap, medals and large baby-photo signs, and she thanked teachers, house parents and hosts for their support.
  • Philipps told reporters she will be filming the CBS series Cupertino this summer, which she said means the girls will spend more time with their father during her work commitments.
