Emma Heming Willis discusses Bruce Willis's health

Emma Heming Willis has shared updates regarding the health of her husband, actor Bruce Willis, following his diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). After retiring from acting in March 2022 due to aphasia, Willis's condition was later updated to include FTD, a degenerative brain disease.

Heming Willis described the experience as a constant process of grieving, noting that the disease is devastating because it slowly strips away aspects of a person. Despite the challenges, she emphasized that the couple still experiences many moments of joy and connection.

As an activist, Heming Willis is working to change the negative narrative surrounding dementia. She expressed concern that avoiding the topic due to discomfort can lead to patients and caregivers being overlooked and unsupported.
