The following year, they shared that the “Pulp Fiction” star had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia diagnosis.

“Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces,” their February 2023 statement read. “While this is painful, it is a relief to finally have a clear diagnosis.”

Earlier this month, Moore, 62, admitted in an interview that she wouldn’t wish her ex’s condition “upon anyone,” adding that his struggles were “very difficult.”

Heming, who wed Willis in 2009, recently opened up about her husband’s condition in an interview with Town & Country magazine.

“Finally getting to a diagnosis was key so that I could learn what fronto­temporal dementia is and I could educate our children,” she explained in October.

Heming revealed that she is not “trying to shield” her young daughters from their dad’s declining health.

“I’ve never tried to sugarcoat anything for them. They’ve grown up with Bruce declining over the years,” she said.
