Bruce Willis living in second home with caregivers amid dementia

Bruce Willis’ wife has gone to great lengths to help him in his dementia battle.

Emma Heming Willis did a sit-down interview with Diane Sawyer that aired Tuesday night and revealed her famous husband, 70, is living in a “second home” nearby so he can get 24-hour care.

“It was one of the hardest decisions that I’ve had to make so far,” Emma, 47, said in the ABC special. “But I knew, first and foremost, Bruce would want that for our daughters.”

“You know, he would want them to be in a home that was more tailored to their needs, not his needs,” Emma added.

Emma noted that her and Willis’ daughters Mabel, 13, and Evelyn, 11, see their dad “a lot” at the house, including for breakfast and dinner visits.

Willis — who also shares daughters Rumer, 37, Scout, 34, and Tallulah, 31, with ex-wife Demi Moore — was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia in 2023.

The neurological disorder mainly affects the areas of the brain that are associated with personality, behavior and language, according to the Mayo Clinic.

During the special, Emma revealed that the “Die Hard” actor’s brain “is failing him.”

“The language is going,” Emma shared. “We’ve learned to adapt and we have a way of communicating with him, which is just a different way.”

However, the author clarified that her husband “is still very mobile” and “is in really great health overall.”

Emma also recalled how Willis exhibited subtle signs of something being off before he got his official diagnosis.

“For someone who was very talkative and very engaged, he was just a little more quiet,” she said. “When the family would get together, he would just melt a little bit.”

“It felt a little removed, very cold, not like Bruce, who was very warm and affectionate,” Emma continued. “To go the complete opposite of that was alarming and scary.”

Willis’ health issues even took a toll on his relationship with Emma, whom he’s been married to since 2009.

“I didn’t understand what was happening,” Emma told Sawyer, 79. “I just thought: Can I remain in a marriage that doesn’t feel like what we had? That doesn’t feel like a marriage anymore?”

Emma said that she had “conversations” with Willis about their problems, but “he would always just dismiss it” until they learned why he was acting so different.

The mom of two did the interview to promote her new book, “The Unexpected Journey: Finding Strength, Hope, and Yourself on the Caregiving Path.”

Emma opens up more about Willis’ health struggles in the book, out Sept. 9.
