Demi Moore shared a new health update on her ex-husband, Bruce Willis, to let the actor’s fans know how he is doing following his diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia in early 2023. Moore reveals that the past couple of years have been tough for Bruce and their entire family.
Bruce Willis’s diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia was a life-changing and eye-opening experience for the actor and his close-knit family. Following the diagnosis, Willis’ wife, Emma; their two young daughters, Mabel and Evelyn; his three adult daughters, Rumor, Tallulah, and Scout; and his ex-wife, Demi Moore, have joined together to form the ultimate support group for Bruce.
During her Friday interview with CNN, Demi shared an update on Bruce’s condition. She revealed that it is a day-to-day situation. Every day is different, and things can change at the drop of a dime for Bruce.
“Given the givens, he is in a very stable place at the moment,” shares Moore. Recent reports reveal that the actor doesn’t get out much these days, and when he does, he requires a team of caregivers to ensure his safety. Most days are challenging for the struggling actor.
Bruce Willis’ condition has reportedly reached the point where, at times, he no longer recognizes those closest to him. Demi admits they have all learned alot since Bruce’s diagnosis.
“I really mean this so sincerely: it’s so important for anybody who’s dealing with this to really meet them where they’re at. And from that place, there is such love and joy. It’s very difficult, and it’s not what I would wish upon anyone. There is great loss, but there’s also great beauty and gifts that can come out of it,” shares Demi Moore.
