Emma Heming Clarifies Bruce Willis’s Dementia: It’s Not Memory-Only and Comes in Three Variants

Emma Heming explains on The Bossticks that Bruce Willis’s frontotemporal dementia involves three variants—affecting language, behavior, and movement—while memory isn’t the primary issue; she notes FTD is distinct from Alzheimer’s and is more common in people under 60. The Willis family previously announced he had aphasia in 2022 and later disclosed FTD, with no cure, and they hope to raise awareness and research for the disease.
