HEALTHBruce Willis Is 'Stable' Amid His Dementia Battle, Ex-Wife Demi Moore Reveals
Bruce Willis' ex-wife Demi Moore revealed that he is 'stable' amid his dementia battle.
Demi Moore shared an emotional update on Bruce Willis' dementia battle.
On Sunday, October 13, Moore had a conversation with HIFF Advisory Board member Alina Cho at the 2024 Hamptons International Film Festival, where the star received the Career Achievement in Acting Award.
During the interview, she opened up about an emotional update on her ex-husband Willis amid his struggle with frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
Bruce Willis was seen out and about recently.
Elsewhere in the discussion, Moore, 60, reflected on the challenging realities of Willis' diagnosis.
"You know, I've said this before. The disease is what the disease is. And I think you have to be in real deep acceptance of what that is," Moore shared with the audience. "But for where he's at, he is stable."
Moore emphasized the importance of adapting to the changes brought on by the degenerative condition, offering a piece of advice for others in similar situations.
"What I always encourage is to just meet them where they're at. When you're holding on to what was, I think it's a losing game," she noted. "But when you show up to meet them where they're at, there is great beauty and sweetness."
Demi Moore said that their family is now in 'real deep acceptance' of Bruce Willis' condition.
The Ghost actress also spoke about the meaningful time she recently spent with the Die Hard star. Just two days prior to the event, Moore visited Willis with their granddaughter, Louetta, who is Rumer Willis' daughter.
"And being able to share with whatever we have, for however long we have it," she said.
