Unbreakable Bond: Bruce Willis' Wife Forges 'New Language' in Dementia Fight

Hollywood icon Bruce Willis, 70, is battling frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a rare and progressive neurodegenerative disease, following an initial diagnosis of aphasia in 2022. His wife of 14 years, Emma Hemming Willis, has openly shared her journey as a caregiver, detailing the profound impact the illness has had on their lives and how their communication has evolved to maintain their deep connection.

Emma, 47, who shares two daughters with the actor, revealed to The Times that she and Bruce have developed their own unique language. Due to his struggles with verbalization, their interaction now centers on non-verbal cues.
