Bruce Willis’ wife fires back at ‘loud’ critics after revealing they live in separate homes
NY Post
Emma Heming Willis is pushing back against criticism over her decision to move husband Bruce Willis into a separate home amid his frontotemporal dementia diagnosis.
The backlash began after the 47-year-old former model shared details in her recent ABC special with Diane Sawyer, “Emma and Bruce Willis: The Unexpected Journey,” about why the actor now lives in a nearby home designed specifically for his needs.
Some viewers and social media users questioned why the “Die Hard” star wasn’t living with his family full-time, while others suggested Emma was distancing herself from him.
“The truth is that the opinions are so loud and they’re so noisy,” Emma said in a video shared to Instagram on Friday, Aug. 29. “But if they don’t have the experience of this, they don’t get a say, and they definitely don’t get a vote.”
Emma also addressed the broader reaction to her ABC special, clarifying that the goal of sharing her experience was to shine a light on caregiving and to build understanding.
“I think that they did a beautiful job with amplifying FTD awareness,” she said in the video.
