Bruce Willis’s wife says she communicates with husband in their ‘own language’
Bruce Willis’s wife says his dementia ‘constantly takes’
- Emma Heming Willis, wife of actor Bruce Willis, has spoken about their communication following his diagnosis with frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
- She described FTD as an 'unkind disease' that constantly takes, and shared that she and Bruce have developed their 'own language' to connect.
- Heming Willis has published a book, 'The Unexpected Journey', to raise awareness about caregiving for those with FTD.
- She revealed that Bruce Willis moved into a separate house for round-the-clock care, a decision she found difficult but ultimately beneficial for him, their daughters, and herself.
- This living arrangement allows Bruce a degree of independence and facilitates regular visits from friends, which Heming Willis says has made a significant difference.
