It’s been almost a year since Bruce Willis was diagnosed with aphasia and now he has contracted another disease, which is frontotemporal dementia.
The news was revealed by his wife Emma Heming Willis on social media where she shared a picture featuring Willis. Bruce was posing in front of a beach.
Emma began by expressing her gratitude to everyone who sent their love and support to her husband and that she would like to reveal the current problem that he has been facing.
Emma added that although Willis was diagnosed with aphasia in 2022, his condition improved but his diagnosis with frontotemporal dementia is affecting him a lot.
According to Emma’s post, Bruce is facing issues in establishing communication with others which has proved that the diagnosis is true.
