Emma Heming has shared new details about the progression of her husband Bruce Willis’ battle with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), saying the actor was never aware that he was suffering from the disease. Speaking on the Conversations with Cam podcast on Wednesday, Heming offered an account of Willis’ condition and how it has affected him since his diagnosis. ADVERTISEMENTWillis was first diagnosed with aphasia in 2022, a neurological disorder that impairs communication, prompting his retirement from acting after a career spanning several decades. He never connected the dots that he had this disease, and I'm really happy about that. I'm really happy that he doesn't know about it.”She added that Willis’ symptoms have largely been communication difficulties rather than behavioral changes.
