In an upcoming interview, she recalls the shock of hearing the news and discusses the challenges of being a caregiver. Emma Heming Willis has always been open about the family's struggles with Bruce Willis' dementia, and continues to honor the iconic actor's legacy as he lives largely out of the spotlight. Emma Heming Willis 'Panicked' After Being Told About Bruce Willis' Dementia Diagnosis Emma is offering a deeper look into her husband Bruce Willis's dementia journey and how their family is navigating the changes. Bruce, known for iconic roles in films like "Die Hard" and "Pulp Fiction," retired from acting in 2022 following an aphasia diagnosis. In February 2023, his family revealed he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, a brain disorder caused by the degeneration of the brain's frontal lobe. Speaking with Diane Sawyer in an upcoming ABC News interview, Emma recalled the exact moment she learned of his diagnosis, describing an overwhelming sense of panic that seemed to drown out everything else being said. "I was so panicked, and I just remember hearing it and just not hearing anything else," she shared. "It was like I was free-falling." The full interview, "Emma & Bruce Willis: The Unexpected Journey," will air Aug. 26 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC, with streaming available the following day on Disney+ and Hulu. Emma Heming Willis To Release Caregiving Memoir, Reflects On Love And Life With Bruce Willis Since going public with Bruce's diagnosis, Emma has been candid about the emotional and practical challenges of caring for a loved one with dementia, while also emphasizing the vital role of community and family support. In 2024, Emma, who shares two daughters, Mabel and Evelyn, with Bruce, announced she would be writing a book on caregiving, inspired by her personal experiences. The book, "The Unexpected Journey: Finding Strength, Hope and Yourself on the Caregiving Path," is scheduled for release on September 9. When asked by Sawyer what love means to her, the "Red 2" actress reflected on their family's experience, saying she feels "lucky" to have love. "Love is beautiful. It's grand. It's unconditional. I'm so lucky to feel the love," she said. Bruce Willis' Wife Says Anniversaries 'Stir Up' Feelings Of 'Heaviness' In Her Heart In December 2024, Emma shared a deeply personal post, opening up about the highs and lows of her marriage to Bruce. "Anniversaries used to bring excitement — now, if I'm honest, they stir up all the feelings, leaving a heaviness in my heart and a pit in my stomach," she admitted, per The Blast. Emma continued, "I give myself 30 minutes to sit in the 'why him, why us,' to feel the anger and grief. Then I shake it off and return to what is. And what is… is unconditional love. I feel blessed to know it, and it's because of him. Emma Heming Willis Shares Emotional Father's Day Tribute Amid Bruce Willis' Health Battle On Father's Day, Emma also opened up about what her family's "unexpected journey" looks like. In a June 15 Instagram post, she wished a happy Father's Day "to all the dads living with disability or disease, showing up in the ways they can and to the children who show up for them." She stated that Bruce teaches their daughters "resilience, unconditional love, and the quiet strength in simply being present." Emma also admitted she was feeling "profoundly sad" that day, adding, "I wish, with every cell in my body, that things could be different for him and lighter for our family." As reported by The Blast, she explained that the phrase "it is what it is" helps her "return to the acceptance of what is and not fight this every step of the way like I used to." Emma Heming Willis Reflects On 16 Years Of Marriage To Bruce Willis In March, Emma marked her 16th wedding anniversary with Bruce, taking to Instagram to honor her love story with the 70-year-old "Die Hard" actor. "Today marks 16 years with the love of a lifetime," she wrote. "We've shared monumental highs and devastating lows, and through it all, we've built something timeless. I'm so deeply grateful for every chapter I've had with him—and all the ones we'll continue to write, in our language of unconditional love." Two of Willis' daughters with Oscar nominee Demi Moore responded to the post. Rumer Willis wrote, "Love you Emma, you are magic 321 and papa he loves you so much," while Tallulah Willis commented, "321. I love you guys so much." Bruce has largely stepped away from the public eye in recent years amid his battle with dementia, but he received an outpouring of love from his wife, daughters, and ex-wife Demi Moore, who remains a close friend, on his milestone 70th birthday.
