Tallulah Willis Shares Update on Dad Bruce Willis Amid Health Battle

Bruce Willis continues to be surrounded by those that mean the most to him.

And that includes his and Demi Moore's youngest daughter Tallulah Willis, who recently shared a positive update on how her father is doing amid his battle with frontotemporal dementia. 

"Our visits have so much love and I feel that," Tallulah told E! News in an exclusive interview, "and that overarches anything for me—being able to have that connection."

And that connection is one the 30-year-old's blended family—which includes mom Demi, sisters Rumer Willis, 35, and Scout Willis, 32, as well as stepmom Emma Heming Willis and youngest sisters Mabel Willis, 12, and Evelyn Willis, 10—is choosing to focus when it comes to the love they have for the Die Hard star.

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

And although Bruce's battle has been "a hard thing" for them all to navigate, Tallulah believes it's "created an opportunity for more love for my family." 

This is especially the case with the addition of Rumer's daughter Louetta, 16 months, whom Tallulah calls the "center of gravity in our family."

As she noted, "I think it's universal to be in the delight of a child and to see the way their brain develops and grows."

And the toddler's arrival has only strengthened the already tight bond between the family.

"We are in constant contact," she added. "We have many group threads for the family. But my sisters and I, we talk every day."

That constant communication was very helpful for Tallulah, who revealed that she's struggled with agoraphobia symptoms for many years, and has recently been exploring her autism diagnosis.

It was through examining those two aspects of herself that helped lead to her new capsule collection with Kumi Kookoon, the Kumi KøøBuu—which launches on Aug. 29. After all, she first discovered the brand while being at home and focusing on what brought her joy.

"When I got my first Kumi, it was the king size, which just fully engulfs you and there's a weighted element to it," she explained. "I haven't really experienced a lot of actual weighted blankets, but I know that for sensory, they can feel very comforting."

After seeing how much the weighted blankets were positively affecting her, she knew she had to get involved in whatever way she could.

"I just got really excited," she recalled aid. "I very quickly jumped on and I said, 'I would love to work with you guys. I don't have a background in this. I don't I don't really know what I'm doing, but I know that I want to be a part of this.'" 

While it took three years to complete the capsule collection—which includes four new colors—she's so happy they finally made it to this spot.

Plus, it might finally allow her to get a new blanket for Scout, as Tallulah joked she already owes her sister a Kumi blanket after accidentally ruining her blanket due to a spill. 

"I always said, ‘I'll buy you a new one,'" she said with a laugh. "And then when I started working with them, I was like, ‘I'll get you a new one.' To this day, I have not gotten her a new one."

"Oh Daddio, to be loved by you is such a gift," Rumer Willis wrote in an Instagram tribute to her father in March 2024. "You are the funniest, most tender, charming, out of this world silly talented and magical papa. Looking through these photos this morning I am just filled with the deepest gratitude that we chose to spend this life together. I am your first baby and man sometimes I wish I could be tiny enough to just cozy up on your chest again and laugh and cuddle you."

She continued, "I love you so deep in my bones I don’t know how my muscles hold them. You are the greatest papa I could ever hope for. Thank you for your generosity, your silliness and heart. Lou loves you so big. Happy Birthday Daddio."

Love is a beautiful thing," the actor's wife Emma Heming Willis wrote on Instagram, almost exactly one year after his family announced his frontotemporal dementia diagnosis. "Wishing you all a Happy Valentine’s Day."

In February 2024, Demi Moore shared this pic of her ex-husband with the youngest of the three daughters they share together, writing, "Showering our @buuski with love today on her 30th birthday."

In November 2023, the actor celebrated his first Thanksgiving since being diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia earlier that year. His wife Emma shared this photo from Bruce's 68th birthday party from March.

"I’m grateful and thankful to know this kind of love," she wrote. "Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving."

Bruce Willis stepped out with Emma to celebrate the release of Demi's 2019 memoir Inside Out. He is joined by his three daughters with the G.I. Jane actress, Rumer Willis, Scout Willis and Tallulah Willis.

Bruce had two special vistors when he starred in Broadway's Misery in 2016.

The family showed up in full force to support Rumer's 2015 Broadway debut as Roxie Hart in Chicago.

"I put my camera on a ladder, set the timer, and crossed my fingers," Emma captioned this family Christmas photo. "Now that’s 2020 for you."

Bruce took his three oldest daughters to the Over the Hedge premiere in 2006.

The dad of five shared a sweet moment with daughter Mabel.

Tallulah, Scout and Rumer joined their dad at a Bruce Willis Charity Foundation in 2005.

"What a privilege it is every day to be your daughter," Rumer captioned this throwback photo. "I love you so much. You are the coolest cat in town."

Emma rang in her 43rd birthday in 2021 with Bruce and their daughters, as well as Rumer and Demi.

The family spent Christmas 2022 together.

Evelyn and Mabel hit the slopes during a family ski trip.

The family, including Demi's then-husband Ashton Kutcher, stepped out to watch Rumer in 2008's The House Bunny.

Bruce and Emma took their kids to Walt Disney World in 2017.

"First time performing in a play for these two!" Emma wrote on Instagram 2018. "Mabel played Molly and Evelyn as Sandy in an Off-off-off-off-off-off Broadway [winking emoji] production of Annie. The whole cast and production was stellar—Mom and Dad couldn’t be prouder."
