Sounds like his dementia is advancing pretty quickly.

That is a shame. Dementia is not just terrible for the one diagnosed, it's terrible for the loved ones watching the deterioration as well 😢

That is sad news, it's still hard to believe.

I've never been a Bruce Willis fan, but this is sad. And as has been said this is incredibly hard on the nearest and dearest too. Hope they're all coping as well as is possible.

This guy has been in so many bangers. It's sad that the movie industry lost him.

Demi Moore Is Heartbroken Over Bruce Willis’ Dementia Battle: His Memory of Her ‘Faded

Demi Moore faced a heartbreaking realization when the 60-year-old visited her ex-husband Bruce Willis after vacationing in Italy over the summer. Sources tell Closer that the beloved Die Hard actor — who’s been battling frontotemporal dementia — no longer understands she’s the woman he was married to for 13 years and the mom to his daughters Rumer, 35, Scout, 32, and 29-year-old Tallulah. “Demi kept in touch with the kids and Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming,” says an insider. “But she had no idea he’d gone so far downhill.”

The progressive disease can cause severe cognitive impairment as well as personality changes and mood swings. In Demi’s absence, the 68-year-old’s memory of her “faded,” explains the insider. “Demi could tell he really didn’t recognize her.”

On the other hand, adds the source, the Moonlighting alum still knows his wife and children and “expresses joy” when Rumer arrives with her new baby, Lou. At other times, Bruce can be “aggressive,” according to reports, while he’s also physically slowing down.

All of which is devastating for those who love Bruce. “Dementia is hard,” Emma told the Today show on September 25. “It’s hard on the person diagnosed; it’s also hard on the family,” she said, adding, “When they say this is a family disease, it really is.” Asked if her husband is aware of his condition, Emma replied, “It’s hard to know.”

He never was very verbal?

Not only are Bruce Willis’ family members and friends preparing for a sad goodbye as the actor battles frontotemporal dementia, but they are “extremely anxious” about his weight loss and decreased appetite.

“He doesn’t express hunger much,” an insider tells In Touch exclusively about the iconic actor’s decline. “According to family members, the challenge at home is making sure that he’s getting enough to eat, that he’s not skipping mealtime, and that his diet is filled with foods that have the chance to improve his health instead of subtract from it. This is a sad situation that should be familiar to anybody who is dealing with a close family member with dementia or Alzheimer’s.”

The alarming update of Bruce’s condition comes amid news that his disease has “progressed quickly,” and that wife Emma Heming, Bruce’s five daughters and ex-wife Demi Moore are doing everything they can to spend time with him and keep him comfortable. Bruce – who will turn 69 on March 19 – is already living life in a deteriorated state.

“He’s not totally verbal; he used to be a voracious reader — he didn’t want anyone to know that — and he’s not reading now,” the action film star’s good friend Glenn Gordon Caron revealed about his condition in October 2023, as he tries to see Bruce at least once a month. “All those language skills are no longer available to him.” The insider further tells In Touch that his acuity has worsened since then, adding, “He can’t communicate anymore, and he has difficulty recognizing people.”

If anyone in his life is going the extra mile, it’s Emma, 45, who spends her time making sure Bruce is as cared for as possible.
