Scout LaRue Willis shared a heartwarming video of her father, Bruce Willis, as their family gathered for Thanksgiving.
In the Instagram Story clip, Scout reaches out to her dad, smiling as he places his hand over hers. She then clasps his hand tightly, captioning the video, “My guy.” Scout, 32, also posted a photo of herself resting her head in her dad’s hand, looking lovely in a white top with delicate blue flowers and puffy sleeves.
A Sweet Moment with Her Dad
Bruce Willis, who has been diagnosed with dementia, spent Thanksgiving surrounded by his large family. His wife, Emma Heming Willis, shared a photo on social media capturing the quality time they enjoyed together.
The photo featured Bruce’s ex-wife, Demi Moore, with whom he remains close friends despite their 2000 divorce. They share three children: Scout, Tallulah (29), and Rumer (35), all of whom attended the holiday celebrations. Also present were Bruce’s two children with Emma, 11-year-old Mabel and 9-year-old Evelyn. Emma captioned the post with expressions of gratitude and wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.
Family Together for Thanksgiving
Supporters loved the family photograph, sharing warm wishes in the comments. One admirer wrote, “Sending blessings for a wonderful Thanksgiving to all of you. Your family is truly beautiful, and your dedication to caregiving has deeply touched me. Thank you.”
Another person said, “Wishing you a joyful Thanksgiving! May God bless you and your loved ones. The love you share is truly evident and beautiful.” A third commenter added, “Such pure love! Happy Thanksgiving to Emma and her family.”
Bruce’s Health Challenges
Last year, Bruce’s family revealed his diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Initially diagnosed with aphasia, the actor retired from his Hollywood career.
His family issued a statement to Bruce’s dedicated supporters, informing them that Bruce has been facing health challenges and was recently diagnosed with aphasia, which affects his cognitive functions. After careful consideration, Bruce decided to step back from his cherished career.
Later, they disclosed that Bruce’s condition had progressed to frontotemporal dementia (FTD), characterized by communication difficulties, emotional issues, and unusual behaviors.
It has been reported that Bruce’s condition has worsened. Glenn Gordon Caron, creator of Moonlighting and a close friend of Bruce, described him as an exceptional individual but noted that he is now experiencing a loss of speech abilities.
Glenn shared with the New York Post, “Bruce’s illness is progressive, so I had the opportunity to communicate with him before it rendered him as unable to communicate as he is now.” He fondly remembered how Bruce loved waking up each day and embracing life to the fullest, reflecting sadly on the significant decline caused by Bruce’s disease.
