Rumer Willis is "really missing" her dad Bruce Willis amid his dementia battle.
The 35-year-old actress shared an emotional message with her fans as the 'Die Hard' actor's condition continues to deteriorate after being diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) - a degenerative disease, which causes behavioural changes and communication difficulties - earlier this year, having announced his retirement from acting due to aphasia in March 2022.
On Monday, she shared a photo on Instagram of her father holding her as a baby and wrote: "Really missing my papa today."
Although some people thought Bruce had died, most of her followers realised she was referring to his illness, which impact's a person's memory and other abilities.
Last week, Bruce's wife Emma Heming Willis admitted she struggles with feelings of guilt amid her husband's ongoing health struggles.
She is urging people to see that "hope is everything", just as she does despite Bruce - who has daughters Rumer, 35, Scout, 32, and Tallulah, 29, with ex Demi Moore - continuing to struggle.
She explained: "I have so much more hope today than I did after Bruce was first diagnosed.
"I understand this disease more now, and I'm now connected to an incredible community of support."
