Bruce Willis was forced to end his acting career after it was revealed that he suffers from frontotemporal dementia and aphasia. He announced his final decision to leave the profession in March 2022. The diseases he suffers from affect his communication abilities and memory, making it impossible for the actor to function normally. He currently spends most of his time at home, surrounded by family.
Today, there are no treatments for the disease, a reality that we hope can change in the years ahead. As Bruce’s condition advances, we hope that any media attention can be focused on shining a light on this disease that needs far more awareness and research - wrote his loved ones in a special statement.
Despite the progressing illness, he fulfills himself as a husband, father and grandfather.
One of the people who regularly posts new photos of Willis is his ex-wife, Demi Moore. The couple has three children and has remained friendly. The actress visited her ex-husband on his 69th birthday, and the report from this visit was posted on her Instagram.
Happy birthday, BW! We love you and are so grateful for you - she wrote briefly under the post.
Recently, the actor was also caught by paparazzi as he moved around the city in his car, accompanied by bodyguards. From the photos that circulated in the media, it is noticeable that the illness has changed him a lot.
