Bruce Willis' family first announced in March 2022 that he was diagnosed with aphasia and would be \"stepping away\" from his career. This February, they revealed he had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, known as FTD.

\"Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces. While this is painful, it is a relief to finally have a clear diagnosis,\" they said at the time, calling FTD a \"cruel disease\" for which there is no treatment.

According to the Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration, FTD currently has no cure.

Tallulah Willis opened up on her dad's current condition and ongoing health battle on \"The Drew Barrymore Show\" earlier this month, saying he's doing \"the same,\" which she added \"is he best thing I could ask for.\"

\"What I see is ... love when I'm with him,\" she continued. \"He's my dad and he loves me.\"
