Demi Moore has shared an emotional update on her relationship with Bruce Willis.

The mum-of-three has continued to be a constant figure in Bruce’s life despite their divorce after over a decade of marriage in 2000. The Die Hard star is now married to Emma Heming Willis, who he also shares two children with.

Both women and their children have been by the actor’s side since he was diagnosed with the language impairment disorder aphasia and subsequently, frontotemporal dementia.

Due to his health struggles, Bruce retired from acting in 2022. With his family occasionally sharing updates on his health since, Demi previously shared the words of comfort she offers her daughters.

And more recently, she spoke about remaining a constant presence in her ex-husband’s life.

“We will always be a family, just in a different form,” The Substance star told Variety. “For me, there was never a question. I show up because that’s what you do for the people you love.”

Demi now visits Bruce weekly, as she makes sure their daughters and Emma and their children feel supported.

“I hope it’s encouraging for others to see that there’s a different way to do things. There is life after divorce. There is a way to co-parent with love,” she added.

Demi and the legend share Rumer, 36, Scout, 33, and Tallulah, 31, together while he also shares Mabel, 12, and Evelyn, 10, with Emma.

In the summer of last year, Tallulah shared an update on her dad as she said he is ‘the same… which in this situation, is a good thing’.

Speaking to E! News, she said: "Our visits have so much love and I feel that.

"And that overarches anything for me - being able to have that connection.

"I know he knows how much I love him, I know how much he loves me. I know how much he loves all of us.

"So you know, it's a hard thing. It's a hard thing for anyone going through this. But it has really created an opportunity for more love for my family."

Echoing what her mum said more recently, Tallulah explained the Willis lot are a ‘very supportive and very sturdy’ bunch who keep in ‘constant contact’.

She also previously spoke about the fact she tries to visit Bruce as much as her schedule allows.
