For good reason, the famous actor who was forced to put an end to his career because of his health problems, while he suffers from aphasia. Only, in February 2023, the relatives of the actor who notably played in Piège de Cristal revealed that he suffered from frontotemporal degeneration (FTD). It is a neurodegenerative disease which causes “memory problems, often episodic, behavioral changes, or even difficulties in speaking or moving”, according to information on the Federation’s website for brain research.

She demands that the paparazzi stop harassing her husband when he is on the street . “If you’re caring for someone with dementia, you know how difficult and stressful it can be to help that person live, even get a cup of coffee,” she shared on Instagram. .

Bruce Willis’ wife asked the paparazzi to stay in their place
According to her, “a lot of people need to be educated on this subject”, while some paparazzi would do anything to get a picture of her sick husband. “Stay in your place,” asked the wife of the great actor. “Don’t yell my husband’s name, don’t ask him how he’s doing. Stop telling him, ‘Yippee-ki-yay’ [his cry in Die Hard].” She wants to protect her husband and her family and will do everything possible to achieve this.
