The actress shared some information on her ex-husband Bruce Willis’s current state of health as well as how she and her daughters are coping with his illness.
Demi Moore is among those close to Bruce Willis, even though they haven’t seen each other in years due to the actor’s diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia. This Wednesday, Ghost: The Shadow of Love’s protagonist shared her personal experience and offered wise counsel to the families of others who share the same illness.

During a SiriusXM talk about the premiere of Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, a series that examines the love-hate relationship between a famous writer and journalist and the most powerful women in New York, the actress said to Andy Cohen, “I think the most important thing I can share is that you try to get to know them and contact them at the stage in which they are.”
“You are truly able to stay in the present and absorb the joy and love that they have to offer in that moment when you let go of who they have been, who you thought they were, or even who you wish they were.” Being present is incredibly crucial. He pointed out that we must concentrate on what they are rather than what they will soon cease to be.
“Considering the situation, he’s doing great.”The actress said, “I’ll share what I tell my daughters—that it’s important to just remember things as they are and let go of what isn’t because there is so much beauty, sweetness, love, and joy in that.
Ryan Murphy’s New Series
The host then complimented Moore on her “beautiful” reaction as a few of Ryan Murphy’s new series co-stars who were present in the studio paid close attention.
The family of the Die Hard star revealed in February 2023 that the actor had frontotemporal dementia. Moore has spent more time with Willis and his current wife, Emma Heming, since the start of his health issues.
In December 2023, a source informed Us Weekly, “They are all there all the time.” “They are soaking up every moment they spend with Bruce because nobody knows how much time he has left,” she said, adding that the whole family has become even closer as a result of this tragedy. Moore and Heming both posted pictures of the actor savoring routine moments with them and their kids during this period.
Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah, the elder sisters of the two girls the Armageddon actress had with Heming, Mabel Ray, and Evelyn Penn, are the children of Moore and Willis. The co-stars of Mortal Thoughts, who wed from 1987 to 2000, also spend time with Louetta Isley, their granddaughter, whom Rumer gave birth to in April 2023.
Willis and Heming
Since his “favorite singers are Louie Armstrong, Etta James, and the Isley Brothers,” Rumer recently disclosed that his father was the inspiration behind the name of his firstborn child.
Last month, Willis and Heming celebrated their 16th anniversary, and she posted a few postcards from the private event on social media. She commented, “16 years with this special man,” alongside a picture of the actor pecking her cheek. My admiration and love for him only deepened.
Willis is responding well to his treatment, according to a Good Morning America story that aired hours before Moore delivered his message to those facing circumstances akin to those his family is facing.
