Bruce Willis’s daughter reveals how dementia has affected star and what he does at home

Talulah Willis spoke about what her father does at home and how his disease affects him as she bravely opened up on the star’s battle with dementia and how the family are supporting him.

Movie star Bruce Willis’s daughter Talulah has revealed what life is like at home for the actor as he battles against dementia. Die Hard legend Bruce was diagnosed with a form of dementia in March this year. The family had first thought he was suffering from a condition called aphrasia which leaves people struggling to speak, read, or understand people. However, it turned out that was just one symptom of his condition – which was later revealed to be frontotemporal dementia.

Speaking about his condition and how he is now, Talulah, said her movie star father is still able to get around comfortably and always recognizes her when he sees her.

She told Vogue magazine: “These days, my dad can be reliably found on the first floor of the house, somewhere in the big open plan of the kitchen-dining-living room, or in his office. Thankfully, dementia has not affected his mobility.

“That office has always been a kind of window into what he’s most interested in at any given moment. Recently I found a scrap of paper there on which he had written, simply, “Michael Jordan.” I wish I knew what he was thinking.”
