Tallulah Willis understands fans’ concern with her dad’s condition, and she’s clearing the air on all the confusion.
ICYMI on Monday, Bruce Willis‘ daughter shared the sweetest photos of herself and her fiancé Justin Acee spending time with the actor. In the pictures, the Die Hard star is smiling and seems to be in good spirits, which is what we LOVE to see! Especially amid heartbreaking updates on his battle with dementia…

The comments were flooded with fans excited to see Bruce doing well despite it all, too!
But some commenters weren’t completely convinced. In fact, they expressed their concern with how the family has been posting the 70-year-old amid his condition:
“Wow ,,just curious if your dad would want his battle with dementia publicized and immortalized on IG for the world to see. Who does this help,,are you raising money,,are you talking to researchers etc. If you are great. I know my mother when going through similar brain cancer and death wanted to maintain her privacy and dignity. Not being remembered like a prop while I sit on the floor and have my pic taken and then sell them to Paparazzi.”
Oof…
Another comment said:
“I don’t think you should expose your dad to the public! He is vulnerable ! And some things should be kept private! You don’t have his permission to post it!”
And that’s the one Tallulah responded to — with grace and dignity:
“hi. I hear that. As a family we use our discretion when posting. Today was a great day filled with smiles. I made the judgement call to show that to the world, because I know what he means to everyone.”
Great response! He definitely does mean SO MUCH to everyone.
We continue to send our love to Bruce’s family.
