Moore spoke to Variety, emphasizing the enduring bond between them despite the changes brought on by his health condition.
Demi Moore further expressed her unwavering commitment to supporting Bruce Willis, stating, “For me, there was never a question. I show up because that’s what you do for the people you love.” In addition to their three daughters—Rumer, 36, Scout, 33, and Tallulah, 31—Willis shares two younger daughters, Mabel, 12, and Evelyn, 10, with his wife, Emma Heming, 46. Moore revealed that she visits Bruce weekly, offering support not only for him but also for their daughters, Emma, and the children Willis shares with Emma.

Demi Moore spoke about the enduring friendship and bond she shares with Bruce Willis after their divorce, expressing hope that their relationship serves as encouragement for others. “I hope it’s encouraging for others to see that there’s a different way to do things,” she said. “There is life after divorce. There is a way to co-parent with love.”
The G.I. Jane actress expanded on this sentiment in a December interview with CNN, where she explained, “That has been very important to me even from when Bruce and I separated and divorced, is the recognition that we’re a family, and we’ll always be a family just in a different form.” She acknowledged that while the family dynamic may evolve, there remains a way for everyone to be part of it.
Moore also provided an update on Bruce’s health, stating, “Given the givens, he’s in a very stable place at the moment.” Reflecting on her experience, she emphasized the importance of meeting those with dementia where they are, saying, “It’s so important for anybody who’s dealing with this to really meet them where they’re at.”#newsafro_
