Just at the beginning of 2024, Bruce Willis’ daughter Scout shared a series of touching photos reflecting on the past year.
Among the snaps that were posted was one of Bruce and Scout comforting each other. “GREAT YEAR FOR SCOUTER,” Scout declared in the caption. “WELCOME TO JOY.”
The Willis family had quite a difficult year as they comforted and cared for Bruce amid his battle with frontotemporal dementia. The actor retired after being diagnosed with aphasia in March 2022. Unfortunately, less than a year later, Bruce received his frontotemporal dementia diagnosis.
Bruce Willis’ family revealed more details about the diagnosis in a statement. “Bruce always believed in using his voice in the world to help others and raise awareness about important issues both publicly and privately. “We know in our hearts that, if I could today, I would want to respond by bringing global attention and connection to those who are also dealing with this debilitating disease and how it affects so many people and their families.”
Mayo Clinic describes frontotemporal dementia as an “umbrella term” for a group of brain disorders. Each primarily affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain.
Bruce Willis’ family later added that the actor has always found joy in life. “[He] He has helped everyone he knows do the same. It has meant to the world to see that feeling of care resonate with him and with all of us. “We have been so touched by the love everyone has shared for our beloved husband, father and friend during this difficult time.”
Scout Willis said she was ’emotionally exhausted’ and ‘overwhelmed’ after announcing Bruce’s diagnosis
Following the news of Bruce Willis’ diagnosis, Scout Willis took to her Instagram to reveal her true thoughts and struggles in dealing with the situation.
“I feel emotionally tired and a little overwhelmed,” Scout wrote, according to Page Six. “But I’m also very amazed by the love that so many people have for my dad.”
Bruce Willis’ daughters Rumer and Tallulah also agreed with Scout’s thoughts. They later said they were grateful for the support they had received after the news broke. “Secondly, this Scouter feels the abundant love for our man and our family,” Tallulah wrote.
“I stand behind Scouter and Buusk with deep gratitude,” Rumer stated. “And amazed by the love for our sweet Daddio.”
Along with Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah, Bruce Willis shares his daughters Mabel and Evelyn with his current wife, Emma.
