Bruce Willis received a touching Father’s Day tribute from his loved ones amid the actor’s dementia battle.
The “Die Hard” star’s wife, Emma Heming, teamed up with his ex-wife, Demi Moore, to post a joint Instagram slideshow with his adult daughters over the weekend.
“Happy Father’s Day to our favorite girl dad,” Willis’ family members captioned the carousel. “We love you, BW!”
Moore was married to Willis, 69, for 13 years before splitting in 2000, and the former couple are the parents of Rumer Willis, Scout Willis and Tallulah Willis.
The Golden Globe winner went on to welcome daughters Mabel, 12, and Evelyn, 10, after marrying Heming, 45, in 2009.
Sunday’s upload included throwback snaps, as well as never-before-seen shots taken amid Bruce’s health struggles.
In one recent snap, Rumer, 35, hugged her dad with a smile while the “Pulp Fiction” star pointed to something in the sky.
Scout, 32, caressed his cheek in another sweet shot.
The Emmy winner officially stepped back from his acting career in 2022 after being diagnosed with aphasia, which is characterized by struggles to speak, write and understand language.
The following year, Bruce’s family updated his diagnosis to frontoemporal dementia.
“Unfortunately, challenges with communication are just one symptom of the disease Bruce faces,” they wrote in 2023. “While this is painful, it is a relief to finally have a clear diagnosis.”
His eldest children have continued to give updates, with Rumer most recently gushing about Willis’ “sweet” bond with her daughter, Louetta.
Moore, 61, has reunited with her ex-husband on multiple occasions since his diagnosis to celebrate birthdays and other holidays.
The duo were close before his health struggles, even quarantining together amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“It’s important … for the little ones to feel comfortable with me and to know me so they also know their sisters better,” Moore explained in a 2021 “No Filter With Naomi” interview.
