Demi Moore shares rare update on Bruce Willis' health
Demi Moore has shared a rare update on ex-husband Bruce Willis, as the actor battles frontotemporal dementia.
The actress shared the update in an interview with Drew Barrymore on The Drew Barrymore Show, where she opened up about his health.
She said she spends as much time as she can with Willis - who she was married to for 11 years and is the father of her three daughters - and his wife Emma Heming, with the blended family celebrating holidays and birthdays together.
During the interview, Moore and Barrymore reminisced about their time working together on the 2003 film Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle, where Willis made a special cameo.
“When we did Charlie’s Angels, Bruce came and played on it, and he opens up the film,” Barrymore recalled, “And we got to work with him.”
Barrymore went on to ask about his current health, noting she had known him for years, all the way back to his days as a barman.
“I mean, I used to know him when he was a bartender at Cafe Central,” Barrymore said. “I’ve known him my whole life, too. How is he right now?”
The actress provided a reassuring update: “Given the givens, he’s in a stable place.”
Moore and Willis were married from 1987 to 2000 and share three daughters: Rumer, 36, Scout, 33, and Tallulah, 30.
Moore also revealed details of how she supports their daughters as they cope with their father's health struggles.
“What I say to my kids is you meet them where they’re at. You don’t hold on to who they were or what you want them to be, but who they are in this moment,” she explained.
“And from that, there is such beauty and joy and loving and sweetness.
“When I’m in LA, I go over every week, and I really treasure the time that we all share.”
The Die Hard star was diagnosed with aphasia in March 2022 and almost a year later, his family shared that his condition had progressed to frontotemporal dementia.
