In 2022, Bruce Willis’ family, including ex-wife Demi Moore, announced that the legendary actor had been diagnosed with aphasia.
The “Die Hard” star’s family updated fans in February, explaining that Willis acquired a more specific diagnosis – frontotemporal dementia, or FTD – a condition affecting one’s capacity to speak.
Unlike Alzheimer’s, FTD is characterized by changes in personality, language, and mobility rather than memory loss. It likewise has no cure and an average life expectancy of seven to thirteen years.
