This time it’s Scout LaRue, the daughter of Bruce Willis born from his marriage to Demi Moore, to provide an update on his father’s condition following the recent shocking news that the actor no longer even recognizes his ex-wife, who remains close to him during his illness. “My friend,” writes the 32-year-old in a video that she published on her father’s Instagram profile and in which she shows a loving handshake between the two. “Hand in hand in love” is the sentence, accompanied by two intertwined hearts, which can be read as a caption to these moving images. The video, like the last photo published by his current wife Emma Heming, goes back to the Thanksgiving celebration that the 68-year-old actor, who has long suffered from a form of frontotemporal dementia, spent with his extended family.

The Hollywood star grabs her and holds her while Scout shows a sweet smile and looks into the smartphone camera. But Bruce Willis’s face looks very tired, his gaze is staring into space.
