Appearing in high spirits when he made his first public appearance since his devastating diagnosis in 2022 to thank firefighters amidst the LA wildfires in January, fans fear Bruce Willis\u2019s health may have taken a downward turn last week when his wife, Emma Hemming Willis, revealed she has been left \u2018heartbroken\u2019. <\/p>\n
Now, after celebrating his 70th birthday in March amidst his devastating battle with a form of dementia, an insider tells us how the proud husband and dad of five is ensuring that when the time comes when he may not have the capacity to organise his affairs, he is admirably ensuring that \u2018his girls\u2019 will never go without. <\/p>\n
Bruce has been married to model Emma, 46, since 2009 \u2013 with whom he shares daughters Mabel, 13, and Evelyn, 11 – and he remains close to his wife of 13 years, actress Demi Moore, 62, with the former couple welcoming three daughters, Rumer, 36, Scout, 33, and Tallulah Willis, 31. <\/p>\n
Labelled the \u2018ultimate girl dad\u2019, our source now says, \u2018It\u2019s always been so important to Bruce that he set up all his girls for life and he\u2019s absolutely accomplished that.<\/p>\n
\u2018It\u2019s not a topic anyone wants to talk about, it gets them all very emotional to even consider life after Bruce. But there\u2019s no doubt his forethought and hard work will be a blessing for his family for many years, and even generations, to come.’<\/p>\n
They add, \u2018It\u2019s something Bruce is very proud of. He\u2019s the ultimate Alpha-male, he loves to take care of his loved ones and his people, so it\u2019s really beautiful that he\u2019ll leave that sort of legacy.\u2019 <\/p>\n
After breaking into acting in 1980 with his first movie, The First Deadly Sin, Bruce\u2019s raspy voice, good looks and unique abilities saw him become the ultimate real-life action hero when he landed the role of NYC Detective John McClane in 1988 \u2013 a standout role that would see him go on to make five Die Hard films. <\/p>\n
The role also led to Bruce \u2013 who was also starring in iconic comedy series Moonlighting at the time – reportedly earning over $100 million dollars in the first few years of his career, making him one of the highest-paid actors of all time. <\/p>\n
Bruce, whose net worth is an estimated $250 million, went on to make over 100 films, before poignantly filming his last action movie, Assassin, in 2021, the year before he was forced to retire following his shock diagnosis.<\/p>\n

Bruce and his girls – including wife Emma and ex-wife Demi Moore<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Bruce was diagnosed with aphasia – a condition affecting the brain’s ability to understand or express language – in 2022, before his family revealed a new diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia in 2023. <\/p>\n
The condition is sadly neuro-degenerative and attacks brain cells which control language, behaviour and personality. <\/p>\n
Now the insider says, \u2018As uncertain as Bruce’s future may seem because of his medical diagnosis, Emma at least has the peace of mind that comes from the fact that their family will always be taken care of and Bruce was especially careful with his massive fortune over the last fifteen years or so. <\/p>\n
\u2018He never splurged on wild real estate deals or risky investments, he insisted on constantly working, and during his prime years, he had a very competent team looking after his interests and watching every penny.’<\/p>\n
They add, \u2018His and Emma’s kids will be fine and so will his and Demi Moore’s children. There’s going to be plenty for everybody because even in retirement, Bruce’s fortune has grown. Nobody is losing sleep about money in that family, even as they constantly worry about Bruce’s physical condition and need to look after him 24\/7.’<\/p>\n
Bruce has been surrounded by love since his diagnosis, with his family happy to share updates with his supportive fans. <\/p>\n
Posting a poignant video of her mum Demi and dad laughing at dancing together to celebrate Bruce\u2019s birthday on 19th March, Rumer told fans, \u2018He\u2019s doing great, thank you for asking, it\u2019s actually his birthday today so please wish my papa a Happy Birthday\u2019.<\/p>\n

Bruce and wife Emma aren’t taking anything for granted<\/p>\n
[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
Emma, too, has spoken candidly about her journey as a caregiver to Bruce, becoming an advocate for carers around the globe with her honesty through the good and the bad. <\/p>\n
Following a family trip earlier this month, she bravely wrote on Instagram last week, \u2018Walking down memory lane, looking at old photos. Laughing. Crying. Smiling. My heart is full and yet so broken. Both can exist.\u2019 <\/p>\n
Tallulah also spoke out about her beloved father in September last year, saying, \u2018He\u2019s stable which, in this situation, is good.\u2019<\/p>\n
However, getting candid about the uncertainty of the devastating disease, she added, \u2018It\u2019s hard. There are painful days, but there\u2019s so much love. And it\u2019s really shown me to not take any moment for granted and I really do think that we\u2019d be best friends. I think he\u2019s very proud of me.\u2019 <\/p>\n
Bruce, Demi and Emma have always been incredibly proud of their blended family, and now the source says Bruce has worked for decades to ensure they are all able to continue to live their lives to the fullest. <\/p>\n
The source says, \u2018Bruce has always been a big provider, none of his kids or wives or anyone in his life has ever wanted for a thing. He was one of the highest paid stars in the nineties and early 2000\u2019s and he was known for his generosity. <\/p>\n
\u2018It\u2019s not as though his kids with Demi have nothing, they\u2019ve all been successful in their own right, but they certainly haven\u2019t earned enough to live at the A-list level that their parents have set them up with. And after he remarried and had more kids and had two families to support he got even more motivated to earn the big bucks.\u2019 <\/p>\n
However, the source says that for Bruce\u2019s family, money is of course the last thing on their minds as they plan to spend as much time with him as possible. <\/p>\n
The source says, \u2018For now though everyone is just focused on celebrating and enjoying every moment they can with him. They\u2019re so happy that he\u2019s still hanging on but they also know the prognosis. No moment is being taken for granted.\u2019<\/p>\n
