Demi Moore confirms Bruce Willis 'is stable' in aphasia battle, two years after diagnosis

As a long-time admirer and observer of Demi Moore’s life and career, I can’t help but be moved by her latest update on Bruce Willis‘ health. Her strength and resilience in the face of adversity are truly inspiring. It’s heartwarming to see that despite their divorce, the affection between them remains, and they continue to support each other through difficult times.

As a dedicated movie enthusiast, I’ve got some news about one of our beloved action heroes, the unforgettable Bruce Willis from the “Die Hard” franchise. After over two years since his diagnosis with aphasia, Demi Moore has shared an update on his health status.

In March 2022, Willis, who is 69 years old, received a diagnosis of aphasia, a condition affecting cognitive abilities. By the following year, he was also identified with frontotemporal dementia, an incurable brain disorder that progressively deteriorates.

At the 2024 Hamptons International Film Festival on Sunday, actress Demi Moore shared that her former spouse is currently in a stable condition. During an exchange with journalist Alina Cho, who was part of the festival’s advisory board, this update was given. Although Willis’ health seems to be under control, Moore also acknowledged that “the disease is what the disease is.

“I think you have to be in real deep acceptance of what that is,” Moore said, according to People.

The news about Willis’ aphasia diagnosis came at the same time as his family’s 2022 declaration that he was stepping down from acting.

This year, I’ve been open about my approach towards handling Bruce’s health challenges. In a heart-to-heart chat with Andy Cohen back in January, I advised those close to aphasia patients to focus on the present moment. Following that advice, I emphasized the same idea during my talk with Cho and the crowd at the Hamptons event this Sunday, saying, “I believe clinging to the past is like playing a losing game.

“But when you show up to meet them where they’re at, there is great beauty and sweetness.”

Since 2009, Willis has been wedded to Emma Heming Willis. However, it’s evident that there is still love between Willis and Moore, who were married from 1987 to 2000. These talented actors share daughters Rumer, Scout LaRue, and Tallulah. On Sunday, Moore mentioned that she recently spent time with Willis, Rumer, and her young granddaughter Louetta. Moore expressed joy in “being able to share whatever we have, for however long we have it.

61-year-old Moore was awarded the HIFF honor during her captivating performance in Coralie Fargeat’s “The Substance,” a thought-provoking exploration of aging and fame that delves into the realm of body horror. It’s a film that will leave you queasy, but also pondering about the complexities of stardom.

Moore expressed to The Times that the profound realization of valuing oneself exactly as they are, in their current circumstances, became even more significant over time. This encompassed not just external aspects but also internal traits that we often fail to notice. Furthermore, it reflected on the path and personal growth required to reach one’s current position.
