Bruce Willis"s family moved him to another house due to progressing dementia

Bruce Willis completely lost his speech: actor's wife talks about the battle with severe illness

Emma Heming, the wife of legendary Hollywood actor Bruce Willis, shared dramatic details about her husband's health condition in a candid interview with ABC. According to her, due to progressive frontotemporal dementia, the famous actor has completely lost his ability to speak.

Willis's family made the difficult decision to move the actor to a specially equipped single-story house, where round-the-clock medical care is provided. The new residence minimizes noise exposure and creates all conditions for comfortable movement of the action movie star.

Heming revealed that the first warning signs appeared during the filming process: Willis began forgetting his lines and showed unusual detachment when communicating with close people. Despite the complete loss of speech, the actor is still able to recognize family members, although relatives see only "faint echoes" of the vibrant personality he once was. His wife specifically noted that Bruce's physical condition remains good, and the main problems concern the cognitive sphere.

"Bruce has generally good health. It's just his brain is failing him. Speech is gone, and... we've learned to adapt. We communicate with him differently," Heming shared.
