LOS ANGELES - Action star Bruce Willis has been diagnosed with untreatable dementia, his family said on Thursday, less than a year after
Doctors say the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain shrink in a patient with FTD.
The family statement, signed by Willis’ current wife, Emma Heming Willis, as well as former wife, actress Demi Moore, and his children Rumer, Scout, Tallulah, Mabel and Evelyn, said the actor had always worked to raise awareness about important issues. Willis has been a fixture on the small and large screen since the 1980s, coming to public prominence in the TV series Moonlighting.
Despite the tough-guy image, he has also had much success with more family-friendly fare, and provided the voice for the baby in the popular Look Who’s Talking.
