Bruce Willis’ wife asks paparazzi to give him room

AFTER When he was diagnosed with aphasia, a brain disorder that affects speech and other cognitive functions, Hollywood legend Bruce Willis announced he was quitting acting. His fans and his many Hollywood friends were both shocked to learn of his forced early retirement after a 44-year career.

Despite the news, the actor appeared to be in high spirits. His wife, Emma Heming, has started posting videos of Willis engaged in various activities on her Instagram.

They have two little girls together, and in recent months Emma has also been open about the difficulties Willis’ condition brings. Last month, the family announced that Willis’ diagnosis was updated to frontotemporal dementia.

Heming recently posted an Instagram video asking paparazzi to stop publicly yelling at Willis after the star’s recent performance.

She noted in the video, “It’s clear there’s still a lot of educational work to be done, so this one goes to the photographers and the video guys who are trying to get these my husbands exclusive films out: just keep your seat.”

“I know this is your job, but maybe just keep your space,” she continued.

“Please don’t yell at my husband and ask how he’s doing, whatever. The woo-hooing and the yippie-ki-yay’s – just don’t do it, okay? give him the space Allow our family or whoever is with him that day to get him from point A to point B safely. This is my PPE.”

Heming, his ex-wife Demi Moore and their kids are currently spending as much time as possible with the star to keep him occupied.
