BRUCE Willis's wife says she and the Hollywood star are living apart after his dementia diagnosis.

Emma Heming Willis married the Die Hard star in 2009.

In 2023, the family revealed Bruce had been diagnosed with fronto-temporal dementia, which affects the frontal and temporal lobes.

It can cause difficulties with speaking and understanding language.

Now, in a heartbreaking new interview with ABC's Diane Sawyer, Emma, 47, reveals what she would say to Bruce, 70, if he could reply to her.

She said: "I'd ask how he's doing, if he's OK, if he feels OK.

"If there's anything that we could do to support him better.

"I would really love to know that. If he's scared. If he's ever worried. I just would love to be able to just to have a conversation with him."
