Demi and Bruce were previously married for 13 years and share three daughters, Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah. Following their divorce, the former spouses have remained extremely close friends.
The inside source states, “Demi kept in touch with the kids and Bruce’s wife, Emma Heming.” Still, she had no idea Bruce, who has been battling frontotemporal dementia, which can lead to severe cognitive decline, personality changes, and mood swings, had gone so far “downhill.”

Bruce Willis’s Family Stays Positive
The family of Bruce Willis first announced his retirement from acting in March 2022. Since then, they have made it a point to remain upbeat. However, as the disease progresses and Bruce’s health declines, it becomes more difficult for the family members.
For now, the insider reveals that Bruce still recognizes his wife, Emma, and his children. He expresses much joy when his daughter, Rumer Willis, visits with her new baby, Lou. They reveal the actor continues to experience physical decline and can become aggressive at times.
It is incredible to think the Bruce Willis can no longer communicate verbally, that he has lost those skills. We take many things for granted every day – most of which is that nothing will change. We are not machines, things change irreversably, don't forget it!
