Hollywood star Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with a rare disease known as frontotemporal dementia (FTD), as confirmed by OKMagazine.com.

According to ex-wife Demi Moore, however, Willis is in a “stable place.”

“I think he’s doing, you know, given the givens, he is in a stable place,” Moore said.

Health update
Moore provided the health update while appearing on “The Drew Barrymore Show.” Moore emphasized the importance of accepting him for who he is now, rather than holding on to past expectations.

“You know, it’s what I say to my kids is you meet them where they’re at. You don’t hold on to who they were or what you want them to be, but who they are in this moment,” Moore said.
Beauty and joy
“And from that, there is such beauty and joy and loving and sweetness. When I’m in LA, I go over every week, and I really treasure the time that we all share,” Moore added.
Early encounters
Moore also reminisced about their early encounters with Willis, while Barrymore recalled working with him on “Charlie’s Angels.”
The film
“When we did Charlie’s Angels, Bruce came and played on it, and he opens up the film, and we got to work with him,” Barrymore said. “I totally forgot about that,” Moore noted.
Specific diagnosis
Willis was initially diagnosed with aphasia in March 2022, and his daughter Rumer later revealed the more specific diagnosis of FTD.
