Two weeks ago it became known that Bruce Willis was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia. People with this diagnosis can live from 7 to 13 years. The disease progresses rapidly and is not treated.
Bruce Willis’ wife, Emma Heming-Willis, shared a public announcement on her Instagram account after paparazzi made a video of her husband drinking coffee with friends.
The video began with Emma apologizing for her appearance, joking, “Today is Saturday, I just woke up,” and then encouraged followers who may also know someone with dementia to share their own experiences.
“So this is an appeal to photographers and vloggers who are trying to show exclusive footage of my husband, just keep your space. Please don’t yell at my husband asking him how he’s doing or whatever, just don’t do it. Give he belongs, let our family or whoever is with him on this day be able to get him safely from point A to point B,” Emma said.
Die Hard star Bruce Willis retired from acting in 2022 after being diagnosed with aphasia.
We will remind, on the eve of Bruce Willis for the first time appeared in public after his family reported that he was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
The big family of Bruce Willis – wife Emma Heming-Willis, their common children – 10-year-old Mabel and 8-year-old Evelyn, ex-wife Demi Moore and their children – 34-year-old Rumer Willis, 31-year-old Scout Willis and 29-year-old Tallulah Willis — are close by and support the actor to help him “live life as fully as possible.”
Previously, Focus wrote that Willis’ wife frankly told how she was going through her husband’s illness. Willis himself spends all the time with his family, only occasionally going out for walks with friends.
