Bruce Willis’ wife shares health update as he battles ‘unkind disease’
Bruce Willis smiles despite dementia battle.
Emma Heming Willis provided an update on her husband Bruce Willis's health, stating he is “doing really well” despite his frontotemporal dementia (FTD) diagnosis.
Willis's family announced his FTD diagnosis in 2023, following an earlier diagnosis of aphasia in 2022, which led to him stepping away from acting.
Heming Willis emphasized that while life with dementia is “different,” there is still joy and laughter, and the family is adapting to new ways of celebrating holiday traditions.
She recently addressed criticism regarding her decision to move Willis out of their family home, explaining it was to protect their daughters from the impact of his degenerative condition.
Heming Willis highlighted the importance of not painting a solely negative picture of dementia, advocating for finding joy and making new memories.
