Bruce Willis’ family wished the actor a happy 68th birthday in separate Instagram posts Sunday.
His ex-wife Demi Moore posted a video of Willis celebrating with Moore, current wife Emma Heming Willis, his daughters and other family members.
The video shows the family singing “Happy Birthday” to Willis, followed by him blowing out candles on a pie. The actor was diagnosed with a form of dementia called frontotemporal dementia, or FTD, last month.
Moore captioned the video: “Happy birthday, BW! So glad we could celebrate you today. Love you and love our family. Thank you to everyone for the love and warm wishes — we all feel them.”
Willis has three grown daughters with Moore (Rumer, Scout and Tallulah) and two with his current wife Emma (Mabel and Evelyn).
Meanwhile, Willis' current wife Emma also posted her two separate videos on Instagram marking his birthday. In the first, she opened up about dealing with feelings of grief and sadness on a daily basis. In her video, Emma noted that she’d been crying that morning.
She said, “I have started the morning by crying as you can see by my swollen eyes and snotty nose. I just think it’s important that you see all sides of this. I always get this message or people always tell me that like, ‘You’re so strong. I don’t know how you do it.’ I’m not given a choice. I wish I was.”
Emma noted that she has to be strong and present for their two daughters.
“So sometimes in our lives, we have to put our big girl panties on and, and get to it and that’s what I’m doing. But I do have times of sadness every day, grief, every day, and I’m really feeling it today on his birthday.”
She said she’d worked on a video montage to post on Bruce’s birthday.
“I don’t know why I do that to myself because the videos are like a knife in my heart. But as much as I do it for myself, I do it for you because I know how much you love my husband and — don’t cry Emma —, but it means so much to me.”
